Tearless Tuesday

Tuesday Fiona Whitt
October 11, 2006 - January 30, 2009

I learned about Tearless Tueday from BlogBaby today.

Tuesday Whitt was just over 2 years old when she passed away and went to be with the good Lord above. Tuesday lost her fight against neuroblastoma on Janary 30, 2009.

This is how BlogBaby described it:

"Rejoice always. Pray continually. Give Thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18(Emphasis added)

For those of you who are new to BlogBaby, this weekly meme is dedicated to and in honor of Tuesday Whitt, whose spirit lives on. For those of us profoundly touched by her story, Tuesday can never be just another day of the week, instead we embrace it as an opportunity to bring honor to sweet Tuesday's memory by speaking out that which we are thankful for and giving praise to our Maker who loves us with a never ceasing always and forever love. Even on our worst days.

There are always so many things for me to be thankful for, when I stop to notice them. But I don't always notice. Sometimes I let my eyes glaze over and get lost in the deep recesses of my mind. Sometimes I am obsessed by the idea that it is NOT going to all work out and things WILL NOT get better. Truthfully, it's a fear that paralyzes me at least 3 times a week. I am afraid of the future.

I'm working on living in the here and now. Some days I can and some I can't. I feel the fear pulling me.But today is Tuesday. And Tuesday's are the day. Each week Tuesday pulls me from my dark place and turns my sight back to The Truth."
