Thank you, Chana Jenny! Yes! We know this to be true in our own lives . . . but you have organized the thoughts and put it into words. What a great “picture” – the smoothed rock, once with sharp edges – smoothed by all those tribulations, afflictions & difficulties! Hopefully, the next conflict will bring that picture to our minds once again, that we are being perfected – and bring us hope in the midst of the storm.
BTW my Mother also had me at 43. I am now 24 and my Mother is 67 (going on 68), may she live until 120, and has the energy of a 50 year old 🙂 (that may be due to having a baby in he 40s!)
