Somethings we will never understand

A few years ago a friend and I often sat before and after church and talked about our kids. Robin and her Alyssa, me and my Malcolm. We were so blessed to have our kids and we loved to brag about them and boast in the Lord about His blessings toward us. We had both lost children and that made these two even more precious. Today one of those "we will never understand' things happened. Robin's Alyssa had an automobile accident and was killed on her way to school. I read all the wonderful posts that are being written on Face Book and people are so kind and good and saying many wonderful true things about this precious Christian young woman and kind words and prayers for Kurt and Robin are going up everywhere. But right now I just want to hug my son and cry for their pain. They trust God, we trust God, we know He has a bigger plan than us, we know all that but the pain is more than I can imagine. Is this one of those 'God gives the grace things?' I really am overwhelmed with it all and I say to God - show them some part of Your plan, please, that good may come of this horrible thing, that they might have peace none of us can grasp and stand for one more moment and then one more and then one more. So I go now to stare at my son, he is asleep in his chair and I praise God for every moment of every day and pray that I never have to walk this path they face but please, Abba, touch my friend this moment and be her strength. Its more than I can grasp.
