When you feel like you’re at the end of your rope…you what they say, “tie a knot and hang on!”
Just when you like life as you know it is over…it moves on.
Maybe you’ve seen all the news about the Jackie Kennedy tapes and the new book that has just been released today. It’s all over the place. Big special on ABC News tonight about it. It’s her voice…recordings made by a historian that they just released on her opinion on history and happenings in the White House while her husband was President. I found it interesting her take on the Cuban Missle Crisis. She refused to leave the White House. She stayed by her husband’s side…at the time…the whole country thought life as they knew it was over…they were prepared to die.
It reminded me of 9-11. Those days and weeks right after…we thought life as we knew it was over…that another attack could happen at any moment…that we would never be the same…but life went on and we recovered.
We recover from those life changing events…even when at the time we think we won’t ever get over it. I think about driving your first child home from the hospital. You’re in a daze driving so slow wondering why everyone else is in such a hurry. Don’t they know that you have the most important person in the world in your backseat.
Or…I remember the day my marriage broke apart, I remember thinking how can I ever smile again…how are people happy…how dare they?
But, we do get over it. Sometimes those events are tragic in our lives and like Jackie Kennedy we think we won’t survive, but we always do. At first you have to take life in small chunks during a crisis. Hour by hour…day by day…than finally week by week…than 6 months goes by and life is
different.
We didn't think we would make it through the Cuban Missle Crisis…9-11…but we did. And you can get through your crisis too. It's better if you do it with God holding your hand.
