I feel broken....

Today has been a rough day. I feel broken. I feel sad. I have almost cried several times and maybe have some.... One of my good friends son has just been diagnosed with Muscular dystrophy. 17 months old. I don't know what to do. I feel selfish for blogging or even talking about this experience. There are so many words and things I wish I could convey to help but I doubt any of it would help or that my words are adequate... My prayers have been continual and it's times like this my faith is stressed. It's not even my child but I feel like it is. The love I have for my church family is so real and it is a experience that I wish I could somehow share with those who don't understand.... I doubt the family will see this and I almost hope they never do..but I really felt like I had to express the mountains of emotion that this situation invokes in me. It's not something I can just shrug off since it is happening to someone else, it's not just something that fades.. They are part of my family....I was in the gym and the song "Love came down" came onto my ipod and I had just listen to the first vs. over and over again. My heart does feel overwhelmed and I am having a hard time hearing your voice in this situation. God help us all.
