Thank you, Mickey (and Alicen), for caring so deeply and actively offering your time, love, attention, and prayers during the most traumatic loss of my life. I feel inexpressibly blessed by your faithful friendship and buoyed by your kindness.
I’m so sorry about your aunt, Mickey. Sending you, J, and her other loved ones waves of healing love 🌊💓🤗
I wept as I read your poignant essay the other day and have thought of you often since then. Sending heartfelt prayer that you may find peace and solace during this transitional time. ❤️🙏
My heart hurts reading Margaret’s post. There are no words to describe the pain of sudden loss she’s experienced. Prayers and more prayers coming her way to learn to live with a new reality in the minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years ahead.
I vividly remember that pain and reading her words brought it all back. If there’s one thing I can pass along were the words someone (who experienced same thing 10 years earlier) told me the night after my husband passed away, “I promise you, you will laugh again. You will love and live more fully. I promise you.” I held onto to these word and have never forgotten them. Hope and faith are the great lifesavers.
Without a doubt, God will somehow use this horrible life changing experience through her amazing gift of words.
Also, there was something that struck me in Margaret’s post, people in Heaven don’t remember their birthdates but do their death date.
I am asking for prayers for my father-in-law who died last week on August 6th. The same day, his son (my late husband) died 21 years earlier. The family is shaking our heads trying to make sense of the same day. Margaret’s words got me thinking maybe this day is one huge celebration up in Heaven, but sad for us. As I learned long time ago, the secrets of God are his and one day I will learn the why. Until then, I just have to continue to trust and have faith.
Oh, Kim...your comment brought tears to my eyes - for a few reasons. Let me begin by sending my deepest condolences to you on the loss of your father-in-law. The fact that it occurred on August 6 is remarkable and I will stand with you in knowing that the angels are still singing about the moment he and your husband were reunited. 🙏🏼
Also, thank you for reading Margaret's post despite it hitting close to home. I hope you can she can perhaps connect.
And, of course, thank you for your prayers and support. I'm glad I know you. 💕
I read and kept to reread Margaret's post on her substack. I could feel her broken heart in her words and prayed that she find comfort in the wonderful memories. Prayers also for your aunt today, Mickey. For me personally, it seems like love and caring need to be sent out even more strongly into the world this week. I was at a hospital yesterday for tests and I could sense the fear and pain in those who paths I crossed. Prayers for all of you struggling with illness, pain, fear, or despair. God's plan for us is good. This too shall pass.
Bless you, Bob, for your grace and generosity even as you deal with your own affliction. 💕 You are always in my prayers and yes, this did not come to stay. It came to pass. 🙏🏼
Praying for all here. Especially MAA. And much gratitude for her beautiful, tender, life-affirming words. I have been following her for years now. So often has she lifted others up with her writing—letting us see we aren’t alone in this. It is a noble thing she does (you too Mickey). I hope this prayer lifts her up and is received as a small thank you to her for all she is doing.
I mean those words Mickey! Also-my own prayer intentions-if you all wouldn’t mind including my friend Rudy who has been stuck in the hospital with an on going infection. He hasn’t left his small hospital room in 5 weeks. His spirits are low.
And prayers for my sister who is undergoing her 3rd and hopefully final surgery for cancer today.
Thank you and bless you, my friend. 🙏 I am writing a full list of today's requests and walking to my church's Eucharistic Chapel in a little while to pray for everyone. You and yours will absolutely be included, Jaye! 💕
