While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss 83 | The Tyranny of Dates
I remember how I felt about the passing of time in the early days after Hannah went to Heaven. How at first I counted every day that she had been gone. How I eventually started counting in larger units of time ... a week, two weeks, a month, three months, six months, nine months, a year, five years, a decade. How I dreaded those anniversary dates to the point where it made me physically ill. I found myself living under the tyranny of those dates. But thankfully, over time, the weight of those dates has lightened. I hope it's a comfort to you to know that, as time passes, and as you daily lean on the Lord for strength, the dread of those special dates will loosen its grip on you, too.
