It means a great deal when another person finally "gets it." And it meant so much to my friend that I was able to speak to the realities she faces every day. If another person truly understands our challenges, God has allowed them to experience similar challenges. Not that we want that for another person, but if you've ever experienced the relief of being so uniquely understood, you know it's something to praise God for. So, I'm growing in recognizing that I can be thankful when God heals me right away, and also when He doesn't. Also, even though I've still have a lot that I'm working on healing from emotionally and physically, I know that Jesus gets it...There is honestly no earthly treasure I could ask for that could possibly compare to the type of understanding Jesus offers me. It is precious and I praise God that He allowed Jesus to suffer so that He could know how to be with me in my suffering.
