When Love Hurts

Recently, my heart was heavy as I thought of a sweet single girl sending her new born baby across the country to live with her loving brother and family. She knew what she wanted and what was best, would result in love that hurts.
I ask God a stupid question that day. "God, do you know how it feels when love hurts?"

HIS precious reply was an image from the movie, "The Passion."

I recalled the tear drop falling from heaven and causing an earthquake. A perfect symbol of how much love hurts.

Wow! Why I ask that question, in hindsight, seems so silly. But, I have realized that when times are hard, I need to ask God if HE knows. Then be blessed by HIS grace and goodness.
