Prayer Circles

Hi our dear Miss V!! It's so wonderful to see a post from you again, we all want to know how you're doing!
That's terrific that the rehab is helping you and yes, I've heard from other's who've had major surgery such as the one you had that it can cause mixed feelings so I'm happy too that you're receiving Counselling. You take your time and puh-leeze listen to your Dr.'s, otherwise we'll be tattling on you to your Rue's, ha, ha.
Love you dear Miss V and those prayers are still coming,
Sandy

Thank you, Sandy, for the information on adoption and for your encouragement. I'm going to be busy the rest of the week, keeping two grandkids (girl--5, boy--3) so I might not get back here very much until next week. I would appreciate your prayers. LOL!
Love to you all! God keep you and your families safe until we 'meet' again.

I just thought of this (as a prayer request), because several of you have 'been there' as the result of a car wreck involving your children. The girl who hit our daughter's car is only 19 years old and is struggling very hard to maintain her sanity from the wreck. Our daughter pulled out in front of her, it was dark, and no one saw the other one until it was too late. Our daughter remembers nothing about the wreck, but she and her husband have tried twice to contact this girl to tell her they don't blame her, etc. but her parents won't let anyone see her because they say she's on medication and not dealing with the wreck very well. I would like prayer for her; I don't even know her name but she lives not very far from our daughter. The wreck was 15 months ago and I would like to see this girl be able to go on with her life, get back to college, etc. Please pray for her. Thank you.
Charlene

Yes, of course dear Charlene I'll say a prayer for the young lady. It's unfortunate that her Mother won't allow your daughter and son-in-law to speak with her, I believe it would be very cathartic for her, but perhap's sometime in the future, her Mother must have her reasons, she's looking out for her daughter's best interests at this time,
Much love, prayers & Angel Hugs,
Sandy

Dear Sisters

I was having a difficult day and I em'd Selva, Sandy and Charlene and Selva phoned me and now I am feeling better and will stay in bed and rest and prob sleep a bit.....

My fibro and shingles are hurting alot so I stay in bed....I gave myself a bath to calm my body down but it will not stop aching....so a new weather system is on the way....

Thank you for your support dear sisters and (((Selva)))

Hello, dear sisters!! The grandkids have gone home and I'm tired but happy to have been able to help our youngest daughter and son-in-law by watching their kids for a few days. I'm so glad that God made me a mother when I was younger (and had more energy); now I can enjoy the grandkids for a few days and send them home when I get too tired. :o)
I missed you all!! That was a beautiful prayer, Sandy. I have a wordpad page that I keep things like that on so I transferred it to keep there. It helps to remember that we WILL see our children/grandchildren again! And not only will we see them, but will NEVER be separated from them again. Thank You, God!! Jennifer, I notice that your Aimee's d.o.b. is 1992, the same as my granddaughter Casey. They would be 14 this year. That's hard to imagine what they would look like, etc., if they had lived to grow older. It's too much for me to imagine so I don't dwell on it. God, in His infinite mercy and grace has allowed us good memories, no matter how long or short they last. At least we have the memories! It's good to be back here talking to adults again. :o)
Love to you all and blessings too.

I know how you feel. I lost my 23 year old son on 11/5/05. I really felt the lost in JAn./Feb. I thought I had control but I didn't. It has gotten better but there is still that emptyness in my heart.

Dear sister 'lask'-- Your 'loss' is still new and will never go away; but God can fill you with comfort and peace if you let Him. He won't replace your love for your son but will teach you how to 'bear up under' this burden of grief that you are carrying right now. Call out to Him daily, hourly, to help you. And talk about your 'loss' here with sisters that KNOW what you're going through. I've never lost a child but I've lost 4 grandchildren; I know it's not the same but it still hurts because we were very close to the two granddaughters. May God give you peace tonight, until we 'meet' again!
I'll be praying for you.

Angelaxoxo:I bet you gave peace to the Mom who lost the child in the wreck that you seen. There really never is closure when we wonder about the wrecks our children died in. My 16 year old daughter Dalin was killed on her way to school alone(except for Jesu) when she died. I was at the scene within minutes trying to give her CPR, but she was gone. I have so many unanswered questions also that may never be answered here on earth. Then 3 years later Dale(My husband, her Dad) dies in a hospital. Again no answer. I know someday we'll all be together in Heaven though, but I still miss them everyday. I say prayers for all on these circles daily. HAS THE LITTLE BOY BEEN FOUND YET? Love & Prayers:.....suangels2

Yes, suangels2, I know about car wrecks. My 2 granddaughters died in a car wreck; their mom was taking them to meet the bus a mile from their house (if they caught the bus at their house, they would have to be ready at 6:30 am; but if they caught it later so they could sleep a little later, their mom drove them to meet it at 7:15 am). It was still dark on Dec. 1 and as she was pulling across the highway (the bus was already there and waiting on them) a Ford Excursion broad-sided their little Ford Focus. Neither of the drivers saw the other one; both the girls were sitting on the side of the car that was hit, one in the front seat and one in the back. They were both gone immediately, but Casey's stepmom was one of the paramedics who responded to the wreck so she started CPR on her and insisted on having her transported to the hospital and she was pronounced by the dr. there. Our daughter was unconscious so she couldn't make any decisions at the time. (The other two kids were taken to the hospital but one was dismissed with a ruptured ear drum from the sound of the impact and the other one had to spend two days there because of a facial fracture and a concussion.) Our daughter remembers nothing about the wreck; but in the hospital when she was told about the girls she argued because she said she let them out of the car, turned around and looked out the back window, and saw them wave to her before they got on the bus. I thought that was a beautiful memory; her seeing the girls waving goodbye to her. It's the shock of a car wreck or sudden death that gets to you; my dr. says it takes about 5 years for your physical body to recover from a shock like that. I can believe it! I still get tired easily and have to rest more than I did two years ago. And sometimes I feel like I get sensory overload with noise and have to get away to someplace quiet to calm down my racing heart. Then the emotional recovery takes even longer. Shock is a very real and dreadful thing, I'm learning. But with God's mercy and you all listening, the tension eases up when I can talk about and cry about it.
THANK YOU ALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!
Today is baby Michael's anniversary date; I've never really thought about it much in past years but this year I'm grieving for him. He would have been 17 this year; it's hard to believe so much time has gone by because the memories are just as real today as they were then. I couldn't even hold him after he was born (I could still remember holding the baby boy that was adopted and thinking about him). His funeral was March 30. Our daughter and husband are thinking of moving him from the cemetery he's in now (30 miles away) to the one where the girls are so they will all be in the same place when we visit them. I didn't realize I needed to talk today until I got started. Thank you for 'listening'!

Hi my dear dear Angel sisters. I am sorry I have not posted in a while. but my job has taken so much of my time, yes I know it is not an excuse but sometimes I am so tired that I can not find the time to post. I pray that all of you understand, I am an accountant and this is tax season, so I am really working my a..s off, but I want all of you to know that I do have time for prayers, before I go to sleep, I pray for all my Angel sisters, with all my heart and soul, that is my time, when I dedicate the time I have, and it is to pray for all of us. My dear Lask, welcome to our Circle of Love and understanding, please come back to our Circle, you will find lots of understanding and prayers, and my dear sister, PRAYERS WORK, that I know for sure, I am alive because of prayers from all our dear sister here. I just found out that my daughter's godfather passed, he was such a beautiful human being, and now I know that he will look after Solange also, and of course , Solange will look after him. I am feeling very sad after I heard the news after him passing, but I also learned that our dear children, friends and family are very happy in the presence of God and Jesus. God Bless every one. Love Selva

Hello my dear sister,~ I am so very sorry to read of your loss. Of course you are sad. We can't help but grieve the loss of our loved ones and friends. But there is one thing we know for sure: He is in the company of God, and also angels. I am sure God allowed Solange to meet him at the gates of heaven. I know; that doesn't make the sadness go away, but our faith assures us that once our work on earth is finished, we will join all of our loved ones in that great heavenly reunion. That alone is a lot to look forward to. Of course you know that you are in my thoughts, which places you in my prayers. I know this is a very busy time for you, but I do hope you find time to get some rest. And, as always, thank you for praying for everyone. You know you are also in our prayers!

Love and prayers,

Verna

Hello everyone, :) ~ Thanks to Sandy, I am finally able to submit posts again. Thanks again, San, for telling me what I needed to do. Hopefully, I have it all worked out now. Of course, they let me know that the username: LOVE2U was taken and also Miss V. haha! However, since you gave me that nick name a long time ago, I was determined to use it; even if I did have to add my last name. It really feels good to be able to submit posts again. :) My poor fingers are worn out though so I'll give them a rest and, [God willing], try posting again tomorrow after I've had time to catch up on reading.

All went well today at rehab. :) I thought this coming Friday would be my last day; but found out that I heard wrong. Instead of 3 weeks, it's 3 months! haha! So, that was a shock for yo Miss V. Thank God for the help of insurance. :)

Thanks for everything my dear sisters; especially the prayers! :)
Much love and prayers for all,

Verna

Good to hear from you, Selva! Sorry to hear about your daughter's godfather, but you're right, they are both together and enjoying each other right now. Some day you will be too, but in the meantime we're in this 'vale of tears'. I saw an old friend of mine yesterday that I hadn't seen in a few months. She was telling me that tears here are normal in this 'vale of tears', but some day all the tears will be wiped away in the land where there is no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. Thank You, God!! It's hard for me to imagine what it will be like but I do know that I'm looking forward to it!
Miss V, it's good to see that you're getting better and stronger. Stick to that rehab; that's what will give you even more energy and strength. You can probably already do more than you could a couple of weeks ago. My prayers are with you!
LASK, having your grandchildren now would definitely help. I heard a man yesterday on the radio explaining how he helped his children grieve after the death of his wife, their mother. He said it helped them when he would cry and hold them and talk to them about their mother. He didn't try to hide the tears from them and they could see that it was okay to cry and grieve. (Not like me who felt like I had to be strong and not cry in front of anybody for years. Now the tears don't stop some days.) Let your grandchildren know that it's okay to cry; and fill their minds with good memories of their dad. Love you, sis! I'm also VERY glad you have Jesus to lean on now, too. Go back and read on page 313 about the Greek definitions I looked up. I hope that will encourage you, too, like it did me. I pray that today you will have peace and comfort, and physical strength to help your grandchildren; that God would fill you with His presence and love so that you could pass it on to anyone and everyone that you come in contact with today. That God would meet with you today and let you know that you are not alone; He is there to lift you up and to grieve with you. After all, He lost his Son, too. Whenever anyone would tell me that, I would think 'yes, but He got Him back'. Well.....we will get our children and grandchildren 'back' again someday too when we go to Heaven where they are! That helps me a lot. SOMEDAY seems so far away right now, but the time will go by faster than we think. Take care today and rest when you can.
Love to you all!!
