Tea Leafs

There is an old Moroccan saying: Women are like tea leafs. You find out how stronght they are when placed in hot water.
I hope that what people see in me is the love I havefor my L-rd and for Mark. That Yeshua is my strength and as hard as this is, I an leaning upon Him. That I trust Him with all that concerns me. And what concerns me at this time is Mark. I know that right now he is settling in and will call and/or write when he can. But it is starting to get hard; the not hearing. The not knowing.
Right now I feel like a weak cup.
