Praying for you as always. I just caught up with the last few entries and the one about "The Gap" rang so true to me for my prayers for you. I posted the other day on an old daily bread (yes I keep'em and go backward) This one was on the miracle of restraint. I think in a lot of ways this world sets us up to be in crazy pain and I have said it b 4 and I will say it again. In your darkest times you still show his light. You are a loved sister in the Lord. <BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MelissaMelissa Dovelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12791352045567564932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-32257323531306913592008-04-11T15:22:00.000-04:002008-04-11T15:22:00.000-04:00So proud of you for sharing your story...not easy ...So proud of you for sharing your story...not easy to do when it is still all so raw.

That is so evident, Kristy...God is working thru you and your blog, and there are so many people being blessed and encouraged by your words everyday. I am just one of the many. I think I speak for most people when I say, no thank you will ever be needed. But it is nice to know that your heart is so tender that you want to make sure people know how much the kind words, thoughts, and prayers mean to you. I know, because I feel the same way. I will never be able to express to people how much they helped me thru my darkest hour (losing my child in December) but I am determined to do my part in giving back to others who are in need whenever I am able to. God bless you, and your family. I check your blog everyday, even though I don't always comment (three boys under 4 years old...time doesn't always allow it!) and am continually in prayer for you!<BR/><BR/>Devin in IllinoisDevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00536576059551978920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-60458198846941534112008-04-11T14:24:00.000-04:002008-04-11T14:24:00.000-04:00I don't remember how I stumbled onto your blog but...I don't remember how I stumbled onto your blog but I did in the months preceeding "Happy"'s birth. I am in awe of your courage and faith with all that you have been through. AND I will never look at a dandalion in the same way. I saw many blooming the other day walking into work and the first thing that came to my mind was "Happy". I praise the Lord for "Happy" each time a see one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-40173651168533721772008-04-11T09:22:00.000-04:002008-04-11T09:22:00.000-04:00Continuing to pray for your family!

While it is an awesome job, I can only imagine how hard it must truly be! Thankyou for sharing your thoughts with the world and for allowing God to show through as you do it! He will give you the peace and strength to sustain!

Thank you for being willing to share with us. If ever you need help at all, please call. Even if you just need a nap or a kid-sitter so you can be alone, seriously I am willing and wanting to help. Your family is in our family's prayers daily. You are an inspiration!

Your words have challenged me. I won't be quoting you exactly but you said God trusted you with this trial and you won't let Him down.<BR/><BR/>I cannot even begin to understand your particular trial, but it is a reminder to me that God is allowing my trial right now for a greater purpose. He trusts me with it and I don't want to let Him down.<BR/><BR/>I am so sorry for your loss(es) but I can tell that God will be using you mightily to advance His kingdom.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the words I needed today.<BR/><BR/>SherylSherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06005663095818742053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-85351530901823291352008-04-10T18:58:00.000-04:002008-04-10T18:58:00.000-04:00I know that it is by no accident that I have come ...I know that it is by no accident that I have come across your blog.

You do our God proud...you are proof that He gives us no more than we can handle (albeit, it feels like at times we will crumble under the weight of life's tragedies). You are living proof that our God is a god of grace...grace that you exude like you have no idea...You are living proof that we are capable of enduring, as long as we keep our eyes fixed above...You are living proof that God is love and that we have been created in His image. I commend you for reaching out to others, when at times you may feel as though you don't have the energy to give anymore. You are a unique and beautiful soul and I am glad that I stumbled upon your journey months ago. God bless you friend. I am proud of you and I honor you--one mommy to another.<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>TrishaTrishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423606694527136604noreply@blogger.com
