children

I started my pediatrics rotation this week. My heart was breaking thinking through all the things their little body had to endure as I read over their previous medical history today. Today God reminded me that life for some will be harder than for others. Life is rather unfair, isn't it? We live in a corrupt world-caused by humans ourselves because of sin. Heaven. I wonder what it will be like? Many have tried to describe it, but i have a feeling we don't have a clue how glorious it will be. Some of us have the hope of eternal life with Jesus in Heaven. Some don't-whether that is due to unbelief or rejection of that Truth.

For some of the children I work with, I know they may not live long based on their medical history. My heart is saddened knowing that the haven't begun to live this life, yet at the same time......to leave this corrupt, unfair world, full of pain.....to be in the presences of Jesus. What a comforting thing....
