Trade Deadline
It's the trade deadline in baseball today. I love it,teams are trying to improve for the stretch run.A lot of times, though,after a trade,I say"Why did they do THAT"?,only to find out later(sometimes even years later),that the team knew what it was doing, and did the right thing. I'm like that with God a lot of times. A setback,an unexpected thing, a loss of someone,an illness,gets me thinking, even saying sometimes," Lord,why did You do that"? But a later time,I see Him in these things, and understand what He was doing, or see the good that came of it.Some things I won't understand, but I have to trust His goodness and sovereignty. Thank you Lord, for baseball,trades, and the lessons from them. You amaze me.

I have a VERY hard time with trying not to ask "Why, Lord?"...
"Why did You take mom so soon, why did You take dad when he was still such a young man, why did You take my in-laws when they were still young?"
I have had the hardest time with the loss of loved ones. I can't ever see a reason for it. I only hope that someday, in some way, the Lord will reveal to me what His reasons were. All i know right now is that i have grand-babies that don't have any great-grandparents, and to me that seems so unfair, just knowing how they would have loved them.
