Comments on: But If Not http://jackie4joy.wordpress.com/2008/05/03/but-if-not/ Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:16:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU By: Linda http://jackie4joy.wordpress.com/2008/05/03/but-if-not/#comment-181 Linda Wed, 07 May 2008 19:48:35 +0000 http://jackie4joy.wordpress.com/?p=149#comment-181 I was somewhat confused when I read this title, but understand it once I read the blog. Who would have thought that three little words could mean so much. When I hear a story like that it gives me a push. Like you said, when the fire comes my way, I need to remember who I serve and that he's not far away from me. Just as my hurt over doing nothing last night, I could use that. "Help me out here Lord, but if not I still serve you". I felt so helpless and scared for this boy and I felt like God left me on my own for that moment. I was so angry and thought "what's the point", but I didn't give in to those feelings. I serve God and he holds me up. If not for him I could've been me on that ledge. Your blog helps me in so many ways Jackie. Thank you for being you and for writing your thoughts down, so people like me have hope.
