Prayer Circles

dear shaner,
thank you for your kind words and i'm sorry for not telling you about my birthday. i think it was because i was so happy about going down south for thanksgiving it didn't cross my mind. i also believe i was trying not to think of my granddaughters who's is the day after mine. Dec. 2nd it's hard knowing i have never seen her and michael is not here to be a part of her life. we are working on grandparents rights just so i can see her. we have 10 faimly members and 3 friends who's birthday's are in this month so it's a very busy month let alone with christmas on top of it all. today i'm home alone for my husband is out plowing the snow. i will be home until the 2nd so i'll be on alot these next couple of days. love and prayers to you and the other moms here to.
love debby

The Christmas Dove

The Child born on Christmas Day
Was human, yet divine;
To make it known around the world,
God sent a special sign.
A symbol of season is
The pure, White christmasn dove.
It represents goodwill to all,
Portrays world peace and love.
It signifies the wish of men
Across the mighty earth
To live in joy and harmony
In honor of His birth.
We ask the Child to fill our hearts
With everlasting love,
And keeo our souls as fresh and pure
As the soft-white Christmas dove.

Good Morning dear Deb, Happy Boxing Day to you. Well, Christmas is over for another year, and with the grace of God we all got through it. Wow Deb! I just realized that we're now on PAGE 100!! So many pages filled with love, caring, compassion and prayers.
You're welcome Deb, and I understand why you didn't tell us it was your birthday. You were so excited to see your Mom again, and as you say, your sweet little grandaughter's birthday as well, day after your's - that's wonderful! We'll all pray that you get to have visitation rights with her, she's a big part of Michael, and I don't understand why the mother won't let you see your only grandchild. We'll also pray for her heart to be turned around. Gosh Deb, 13 birthdays in the month of December, as well as Christmas, that's a lot to remember! Our son Chris's b'day is in December, the 16th, and my sister-in-law's b'day is on Christmas Day, but that's it.
That's nice that you have some time off, you've been so busy lately with school and work, so take advantage of your time off. We'll all look forward to seeing more posts from you, dear Deb! A very beautiful poem, may the 'Christmas Dove' fill our hearts with peace and comfort, thank you for posting it. Much love and prayers to you Deb,
Luv Sandy

Good Morning Everyone! ... And congratulations to Deb for submitting the very first post on the 100th page of our prayer circle of love! :)

Deb, ~ What a beautiful and inspiring poem! You always post the most beautiful and touching poems. And the message therein is so inspirational. I just left the Inspirational link here on Beliefnet. While there, I read the most inspiring page. The title of the page is, Who Do You Love? It was my first time clicking on this link. If you get a chance, check it out. There is a very cute page there by the title, An idle mind is ... the bet way to relax? As the saying goes ... Out of the mouths of babes!
Good to know that you are finally getting a couple of days to rest. :) You keep such a busy schedule, sometimes I find myself wondering ... How in the world can you do all that you do! But then, I remind myself that God renews our strength daily, and gives us the help we need ... As we continue on our grief journey. :)
A late Happy Birthday to you, Deb. You and my husband, David share the same birthday ... Dec. 1. :) My mother's birthday was Dec. 10th and my brother, Charles, was Dec. 18th. Of course, they are celebrating their birthdays in heaven with God the Father, and all of our other loved ones who have gone on before. Thanks again, Deb, for your prayers, and for being there for all moms who have lost their precious child/children. I I finally submitted a "sleepy" post to Bard, at Carol's memorial site sometime before daybreak. I was sooo sleepy, I was almost to fall out of my chair Again! :) We will continue to remember Barb in our prayers I also pray a special prayer that things will work out for you and your beloved grandchild!
Much love,
Verna

HI VERNA,
I CLICKED ON THE INSPIRATIONAL LINK PAGE AND I COULDN'T FIND (WHO DO YOU LOVE) MYBE I'LL FIND IT LATER. THANKS ALOT DEBBY

Hello dear Deb, yes, we've hit Page 100 as I said, and you did it! I still can't believe it's grown so large, I had no idea when I started it that it would become such a blessing for others as well as myself. I thank Our Lord, the Holy Spirit and my Shane for making this Circle possible. And a very big thank you to all the wonderful, amazing moms I've met here, at this Circle of Love, I love all of you! We're all one big family, bonded together with the love of our child that has passed, and wanting to help other moms and dads in their time of grief and pain.
Oh, I know Yvonne will love the poem you posted at Joe's site, it's a beautiful thing for you to do for her. Gee Deb, that sounds so strange that she would be afraid to call you? You'd think she'd know you by now, and want to share Michael's child with his grandparents. Oh yes sweetie, our prayers are with you that she DOES come around and do the right thing, letting Skyla be a part of your lives, and you a part of her's! Gosh Deb, lots of birthdays in December! You have a very good memory to remember them all. Oh, I bet you're excited to see your new niece, and congratulations on being her Godparents. She certainly sounds like a big, healthy baby! Deb, you don't need to thank me, that's what this Circle is for, it's what I intended it to be, a safe place for moms (and dads) to post how they're feeling, and only receive love, understanding, compassion and prayers in return. As I said before, all of you are a big blessing to this Circle of Love, and I would surely miss any of you if you stopped posting. This is your Circle too, and you post as often as you want! Thank you for your prayers dear Deb, and your love, mine are always with you and all the other moms on these pages. I loved this new poem too, thank you so much for all the poems you post, we all love them and look forward to them. Much love to you dear Deb,
Luv Sandy

Hello dearest Verna, I hope you had a joy-filled, peaceful Christmas, remembering Diane in your own special way. Verna, if you insist on staying up all night, :) please put a seat belt on that chair of your's, we don't want you falling again and injuring yourself again! That's so nice of you to post at Barb's site for Carol, I know she'll appreciate it very much. Much love and prayers to you dear Verna, and try to get some sleep, :)
Luv Sandy

Hi to all of you Angel moms, I have been through a deep valley day today, tried to work on some of my accounting work but it did not helped. I'm still at my sister until Jan 2 that I,m planning to go back home. I just want you to know that I thank The Lord for leading me to this Circle of Love, you have been better help thant my phsycologist. I love you all and pray for you too. .And please if you ever think of coming to Miami, let me know, for you will have a home to stay and a very loyal friend to show you around. I think we should plan a reunion someday. Love you all. Selva

Hello dearest Selva, I'm so sorry to read you're having a valley day sweetie, they're so painful, aren't they. No, I don't imagine working on some of your Accounting work would take your mind and heart off of your grief, missing your Solange so much. You've just been through your first Christmas without her, and that's very tough, so let yourself grieve, cry, and know that we are always here for you. And you're so blessed to have a loving sister to help you out, and be able to stay at her house over the difficult days you're going through. I thank The Lord above that you found this Circle of Love too, you're an Angel yourself as I've said, and we're all blessed to know you, you're a help to others here as well, this is your Circle too, and we're all here to help each other along on our Journey of Grief. That's so sweet of you to say that we've been more help than your psychologist, I believe it's all our collective prayers for each other that helps, and this is a safe place to talk about your feelings, knowing that everyone understands. I love you too, and all our prayers are with you, and we can count on your prayers for all of us! I would love to go to Miami one day, and now we know that we have a place to stay, that's so very nice of you, you are a loyal friend! Gosh yes, wouldn't a Reunion someday be wonderful, meeting each other someday. What a Reunion it would be! Right now you take good care of yourself, grieving is hard emotionally and physically, and we moms forget in our grieving sometimes to take care of our own health. I know it must feel very dark for you right now, and it may for a while, but slowly you'll come out of it and see some light, in your own time, everyone grieves at their own pace. The first year is always the hardest, and it's only been a few months for you, so the pain is still very raw and fresh. Our son Chris went back home this afternoon, and I really missed him leaving, I held him for a very long time. It's a rough road Selva, but with Our Lord's help, and our prayers and those of others, and your own great faith, you'll slowly make it through. In the meantime, you know you have our love, understanding, we're here for you always. Much love to you and prayers,
Luv Sandy

Good Morning Deb, ~ I finally found that page. :) I will send it to you in an email today. So watch for an email from vclay100@aol.com.
Love,
Verna

Hi Sabdt. First of all thank you for such a beautiful card, just what I needed today, for I woke up in a very angry mood, angry because I don't have Solange here to celebrate as I see other parents enjoys themselves with their children, angry because I have nothing to look forward for this coming Year, I feel very empty. Like I said before I just want my daughter back. Tahnk you for all your prayers I really need it. I try to pray as soon as I got up, but stopped and got angry. I will try again later on. I hope God will forgive me for that. I love you Angel Moms. Selva

Dear Selva, ~ I feel your pain! My heart goes out to you and my prayers go up for you! Don't worry about praying right now! You have a right to be angry and you have a right to express that anger! I have been there, and so have a lot of other moms! God, understands.. and He will not hold it against you! Even Jesus called out to God in anger, under the weight of His cross, asking ... "My God, my God... Why have You forsaken me?" I will be submitting a post to Barb in a few moments. Please read it because I feel it will be of some comfort to know that you are not alone in what you are feeling and that you need to express it, to get it out! Also, in my post to Barb, I have recommended a book that I know would help you to understand how much you need to express what you are feeling. If I can find it on line, I will order it for you! I will email you to let you know if I find it online. Again, don't worry about praying... We will pray for you until you get through this valley period. When I was there, I thought I was going to go crazy! I wrote down what I was feeling... I wrote a letter to God! So, I can tell you, God is waiting for your letter, Selva. He is also waiting for letters from a lot of moms who are down in the valley where you are right this very minute! You are not alone! But, the evil one (satan), wants you to think you are! The other moms and I will rebuke the evil one for you, in Jesus' name! And the Holy Spirit will make a plea on your behalf at this very moment! He does that for all bereaved moms -- even those of us who are farther along! He did it for me just a few days ago, (Dec. 18th), when I had a very painful setback in my grieving over my daughter, Diane, whom I lost in a tragic chain reaction wreck, a little over 6 years ago. I have come a long way, but I still have to face this setback and it is in no way easy! So, please know that you are within your rights as a newly bereaved Mom to tell God how angry you are! After all it's just been a few months since you lost your Solange. Solange has her arms around you, but you can't see her, and that is so very difficult to accept! So, talk to he r... Out loud! Tell her how much you miss her and long to hold her in your arms, just once more! Cry, scream to the top of your voice! That's what I did, more times than I can count! And I can assure you that a lot of other bereaved moms have done likewise! I have an appointment down town in a few, but I will email you some helpful information just as soon as I return! Just remember, we are storming heaven with prayer for you and your beautiful Solange!
Much love,
Verna

[part 1]
Good Morning Barb! ~ I took Sandy's advice and got some sleep last night, and feel so much better this morning. I am the world's worst when it comes to taking good care of my physical health. :( But I have prayed over it, and asked God to help me to do better! And with all the moms praying for me also, I just know I am going to do better!

Barb, we miss your wonderful posts at the circle. :( Please stop by from time to time and let everyone know how you are doing. Would you believe that we are celebrating 100 pages! And Debby was the first one to post on page 100. :) She is such a treasure, as are all the other moms, and that includes you, too, Barb. :) We often refer to our circle as a circle of love, because that is the foundation on which it is built. There is so much power in the prayers that we pray for each other! We love all of our moms! And, we love and miss your compassionate posts so much!

I pray that God will place it on your heart to come back to us just as soon as you feel you can. You know we will welcome you with open arms! :) We have so many new moms that need our encouragement, Barb. I know you sometime feel that because you still miss your sweet Carol so much that you feel you won't be much help to the newer moms ... But that just is not true! When you post exactly what you are feeling in your heart and soul, it helps all of us who are still grieving the loss of our precious children!

It's been a little over 6 years since I lost my precious Diane, and not a day goes by that I don't miss her! I still have days when it feels as though it was just yesterday! And, it hurts sooo much on those days! But, I know that the pain that I feel during those times is all a part of the love I have in my heart for my precious daughter, so it is OK to feel and express that pain! And, when I share what I am feeling on valley days, with the other moms, I find that a lot of them are feeling just as I am feeling. We all have our valley days, Barb, know matter how far we have come. One never gets beyond grief, but together, we can continue to pray for strength, and seek ways to go on.

[part 2]

The bible teaches us that the truth shall make us free! Being free, in my opinion, does not mean that the pain we feel will go away forever. What it means is; in spite of what we are feeling, at any given moment, we know we can count on our Lord and Savior to give us the strength we so desperately need to go on.

You see, Barb, God uses those of us who are weak to reveal His awesome power, so that others will believe! God wants us to come to Him just as we are!

Our hearts have been torn and shattered -- Our lives changed forever. But when we lean God and on each other, it makes it a little easier to go on, in spite of our debilitating grief.

The enemy does not was us to succeed, Barb. He knows that if he can isolate us, and make us turn our grief inwardly, it will eventually destroy us! God want us to pour out our grief, to express it openly! Once we learn to do this, the peaceful moments will begin to last just a little bit longer! Then, on hilltop days, we try to console others, and share with them the things we feel have helped us the most at different stages of our own grief process, with the hope that others will take and use some parts of what we share as they continue on their own grief journey. As Sandy often reminds us: No two people's grief is exactly the same. Each must grieve in his/her on way. But we can learn from each other and try to help each other, especially on valley days!

I just started reading another book on grieving. It's by David Biebel. The title of the book is, "If God Is So Good, Why do I Hurt So Bad?" I am only on page 16, but I can tell that it is going to be such a blessing, because it speaks of how important it is to be open and honest about our grief. The ISBN # is 0-8007-8628-9. If you have not read it yet, I urge you to do so. I just know it will make your valley days a little easier to bear. I will be sharing this post at our prayer circle of love, so that the other moms can benefit from this also. :)

God bless you Barb, and always know that we love you, and we will welcome you back with open arms, just as soon as you feel ready to come back to us.:)
Peace, blessings, and much love and prayers,from all.
Verna

Hello dearest Selva, don't ever feel bad about being angry, we've all felt that way, it's a very normal part of grieving! We get angry at God, for taking our child home, and sometimes we get angry at our child, for 'leaving' us. He understands your pain more than anyone here ever could, and loves you dearly. He understands your anger towards Him! So please don't feel guilty, all of what you're feeling is a very normal part of the grieving process, it brings up so many, many emotions for us that we didn't even know we had. As Verna said, we'll do the praying for you, standing in the gap for you until you feel ready to talk with Our Heavenly Father again. I know of the emptiness in your life, that cry from your heart that wants Solange back, for your life has been turned upside down, forever changed, and yes sweetie, it's very painful. When we lost our child/children, we lost a future too, we'll never get to see them get married, have children of their own, and that too is part of the emptiness that we feel. Don't feel badly or guilty over anything you're feeling right now, we've all experienced these emotions. I'm so happy that you posted about how you're feeling, because talking about it allows you to release it and that's how we slowly start to accept it. You're far from that right now because your loss is so recent, so just accept your feelings and emotions, as I said, they're all a very normal part of grieving, and we've all experienced them and still do on our valley days. We love you too, our Angel mom Selva, and we're always here for you, you post how you're feeling anytime, we'll do our best to try and help you! Much love and prayers to you dear Selva,
Luv Sandy

Goodness yes, Barb (eudora), it goes without saying that you're always welcome to post here, we'd love to know how you're doing, but no pressure, you post if you feel like it, but always remember that you're in our prayers and love! Love and prayers to you,
Luv Sandy

Hi Verna ,Sandy and all you wonderful moms. Thank you for your prayers for I'm a little less angry right now, just feeling the pain. Thank you Verna for giving me the title of the book, I just ordered it. I also read a book that is very helpful it is called Embraced by the Light, from Dr. Raymond Moody, it is a great book written by a Dr. in a very professional way, of people who has been death for a couple of minutes and they all agreed on what they saw. I have a very old aunt, who lost her daughter (my cousin and best friend) about 30 years ago, she told me that before she died, she talked to her a lot about what she was about to be going, meeting our grandfather and the beautiful place sha was seeing., hours later she died peacefuly, she was 19 yeasr old. I was in the US when that happened and could not be there with her because of the goverment in Cuba. I found out about her death about 3 weeks later that someone could comunicate with our family, my mother and dad were in Cuba. I did not meet with them 7 years later because they will not let them out of the country. It has not been an easy life for me, for I was still very young when my parents decided that I should live the country where the comunist were taken over. I have been through a lot but nothing compared to losing my daughter. Thank you many times for your prayers. I will start to pray again now for me, Solange, all of our children and for all you beautiful and understanding Angels. Much love Selva

Hello dear Selva, I'm happy to read that you're not so angry right now, I believe all our collective prayers and your own have helped you with it today. But don't be dismayed or upset if it comes around again, on top of the grief of losing Solange, you have all these other emotions to deal with, just take one day at a time. Yes, there are many good books out on grieving the loss of a child and they can be very, very helpful. I've read the book you mentioned, and found much comfort in it. If you enjoyed that one, you would also like the one by Betty J. Eadie, on her near death experience. Your cousin's experience must have been a beautiful one, glimpsing Heaven as she was about to enter. My father had a similar experience as he was dying, he saw his mother, my grandmother, calling out his name to him. It proves to me that our loved ones, especially our children, will be there to greet us when it's our turn to cross over.
Oh Selva, that must have been so difficult to leave your homeland, your parents, family, and come to the U.S. But it shows the great love of your parents, wanting a better life for you!
No, nothing compares in life to the loss of one of our cherished children, it's the worst pain and trial that we'll ever endure. So you grieve for your Solange as long as you want to, don't listen to other people who tell you that you should be 'over' it by now, or that it's time to 'move on', they just don't understand the unique loss of losing a child. Anyway, I'm glad you're feeling a little less angry right now, and our love and prayers are with you always, much love to you,
Luv Sandy
