There is joy to be found in each day that holds sadness! We need only to count our blessings to see the good:) !

     Today I have been heavy in heart, my daughter's beau lost his grandfather this week and will be laid to rest this afternoon, I love Derek so much for the wonderful mate he is to my daughter, and am feeling sad for he and his family! I pray for peace in heart, comfort in body,  and calm in spirit for each of them and ask for them to be filled with the truths of everlasting life and being together again in the eternities!  Please lift them in prayer with me that as they say "until we meet again" that his spirit will be with them and his memories will bring smiles to their faces and great warmth to their hearts. In the name of our savior, Jesus Christ...amen. 






  Today is my Wayde's birthday, I am so thankful for this man and wish for him all of the riches  his heart desires. I have told my story many times regarding the way in which we met and praise Heavenly Fathers name each and every day that we are allowed together. Happy, happy birthday my love, I pray that you know how much my heart is full in knowing you how much my spirit is nourished by your example of pure and unconditional love and how my once ugly frown is now a constant smile because I am with you! 
     I pray that each of you has that special someone in your life, that builds you up when you are feeling defeated, that stands beside you when you have new ideas, that offers support in the things you hold important, that will get "on bended knees" with you and chat with God, that tells you he loves your beauty even when you look in the mirror and are blind to it, that believes in you and trusts you with his life! It is a wonderful feeling and one of the biggest blessings I have ever received. I prayed long and hard for him and know that he is a gift to me, that God placed him in my path for a reason if nothing more than to make me realize that unconditional love really does exist. I pray for you this day that if you have never experienced this kind of love, that it will be presented to you and that you will recognize it as a wonderfully, beautiful gift from God.  God is good my friends, he is the beginning and the end and will never leave you, not even in the darkest storm if you trust in him, if you hold fast to your faith and know that he is in control and he will carry your burdens if you believe. I love each of you in Christ and pray in his beautiful name that this day will be the answer to your prayers. God bless and keep you, amen!

Father God we come to you this very moment to ask for special blessings upon this family who have suffered such a tragic loss today, we are on bended knees asking that you comfort the family with a love and peace that surpasses all other, that you hold these babies as they begin to realize that their mother has gone to live with you and do your celestial work. Father this community is filled with sadness and such heart ache, bring them together in unity and allow them to feel your kindness and your mercy. God fill them with the knowledge that this is not a "forever goodbye" only an "until we meet again" and that her spirit will live in each of their hearts as memories. We ask that you be ever present today, that the Holy Ghost guide each of them and that they feel you literally holding them in your arms, pulled close to your chest, using your breath as their own and your strength to move from one moment to the next! We love you father and know that you will provide for them all that is needed until they can stand alone once again! In the beautiful name of Jesus Christ I ask these blessings, amen.
