This is the twelfth installment in a series of posts straight from our journal (handwritten). When we first received the difficult diagnosis for our daughter (still in the womb), we immediately started journaling. Click here to start reading Journal from the beginning. Here is what we said:
DAY Nineteen – October 13, 2001 – (Robin)
God is good. We are doing well. Last week, Erica and I went to 3 doctors and she had her blood tested. Monday, we go see the neurosurgeon. I think it will be very informative.
We had a couples’ picnic tonight at our church and we discussed our situation with couples from the church. It was the first time in the whole situation that I didn’t want to talk about it.
Their attitude wasn’t conducive to our faith. We are strong. God deserves the glory. We are wedged between shock and reality.
There is no new news. There is no thing we can do but have faith. We do have faith and we God the honor!

OOOOOHHHHH! People not “conducive to our faith.” Wow.
What do you do in this situation?
Have you ever found yourself in that spot?
How do you separate the people from the attitude?
