The days that hurt...

I remember that day so vividly it is still hard to breathe when i think about it:

Grade school...the playground...on the merry-go-round...the world is spinning faster and faster...then BOOM...I am on the ground...i can't breathe...i can't catch my breath...i am so scared...someone help me!!!

It was the first time I physically got the wind knocked out of me; I did not understand what was happening.  Years have passed and I have not had the wind knocked out of me physically since then...I have had the wind knocked out of me emotionally.

When life hurts and you can't seem to breathe...go to the foot of the cross...lay before the Lord...He alone is our rock and salvation...He alone can heal the hurts that don't go away...let His love fill you. Only then...YOU CAN BREATHE AGAIN.
