For those of you who follow my blog, Meditations of my Heart, knowing about my husband, Danny, comes as no surprise to you. He is my rock, my comfort, and my fellow traveler on this Christian road we travel together.
No wonder, then, it is difficult for me when he takes a business trip, and it is one I cannot attend. Monday morning, Danny leaves for St. Paul for a National Energy Star Products meeting. Leaving on a jet plane. Flying. Away from me.
Away from us . . .
It might not be so hard, so worrisome, for me if I had not experienced losing a former husband to a freak and accidental death . . .
Enduring the loss - the pain, the sorrow, the grief.
I can't do it again . . . I think God knows this. No! He knows!
I want Danny to return safely to me. I expect it.
I pray for it . . .
Lord, I know you hear. I know you care. I know you know . . .
And, I pray for the faith to let Danny go, trusting he is safe in Your hands, dear Father. There is not a day that goes by when I don't thank You for allowing me to be the most fortunate of women, and so blessed.
Bring him back to me safely, dear Lord, I know You can.
I know You will . . .
Travel blessings, dear Danny!
I will return safely - do not worry baby.

Now is my chance to pray for you and Danny.. and that I am doing and will continue doing until Danny is back by your side safe and sound..... sending hugs , love and prayers... I love you ...As always...XOXOXOXO
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, Bonnie, for your prayers. They mean so much!

Take care Martha. I am sure Danny will come home safely to you. I can understand your panic but remember to stay happy or he will be terribly worried about you. I also get anxious when hubby travels. I guess it is in the genes of wives to worry :). Stay well.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it is in our genes to worry when our husbands travel . . . I will stay positive and busy during this time. Thanks for the kind words, Rachna!

Love Danny's comment above. No wonder you want him to come home!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Galen! He's made it safely there and I'm so grateful for that.

I know what you mean, Martha! I miss my sweethearts when we are apart, too! XOXOXO
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by, Linda! Yes, I believe the feeling is universal . . .
DeleteLove and blessings!
He will be fine Martha....you have so much faith...have faith in your faith.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Janu, I do know he will be. I'll have faith in my faith. :)

I go through this every week, it never gets any easier...<3
ReplyDeleteI hear you, Jan, and so appreciate you stopping by. No, it's not easy, but it is a part of life and love.
DeleteBlessings!
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your former husband Martha! I can understand your worry. You carry him in your prayers and God will protect him where ever he goes. Have a blessed day!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Nelita, for coming by and leaving this comforting comment. I am so glad Danny will be home tomorrow evening. Praying for safe travel!
DeleteDid you see the photo of Linda Lee with Danny in St. Paul where she lives and where his business meeting was held? So cool they had a chance to meet!
Blessings always!
I just read this and know that Danny is back safe, Martha. However, I too tend to worry when Jose travels - though rarely. How cool that Danny met up with Linda. I'm off to look for the picture. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is so hard not to worry when our husbands travel. I think it's the natural thing to do. Yes, it was so cool that he was able to meet up with Linda. It's a great photo and should be on my timeline.
DeleteBlessings to you, Corinne!
Wow! I could just imagine how I would be...though I'm also trying not to be too attached to the people I love :) God bless you both always!
ReplyDeleteYes, Melissa, it is an act of faith to let someone go and trust he or she will return safely; something I always struggle with . . .
DeleteBlessings!
