I am also a trembling little girl in a grown up body. I've had to do lots of scary things this year since my cancer diagnosis, and I definitely know it's the love of Jesus, and the love of my husband and daughter, that compels me forward to do them. <br /><br />I also got a great chuckle out of your description of your martial arts class. One of the ways my husband got out of his comfort zone this year (and one of the ways he is dealing with the stress of my ongoing illness and treatment) was to join a martial arts class. Our fourteen year old daughter decided to join him. It has definitely been an adventure for both.<br /><br />From one Bilbo Baggins to another...I just had to say thanks for this post!

His love and compassion are so, so great!! It's hard to understand that He sometimes allows suffering to bring spiritual purification, but His ways are higher than ours.
