I read the following about Johnathan Edwards wife, what she said after her husband passed away:
"What shall I say? A holy and good God has covered
us with a dark cloud. . . . The Lord has done it. He has made me adore His
goodness, that we had [Jonathan] so long. But my God lives; and He has my
heart.”
I want to get to the point where I can react that way. I am not there yet. What an example of a woman when faced with probably the biggest tragedy in her life she reacts with praise to God's goodness. She had given God her whole heart - so what bad thing could happen in this life to break her down? Yes, I'm sure she was sad and grieving but the Lord had her heart. And He is unbreakable. and He lives.
