Thank you all so much for your wonderful, supporting and so loving comments on my journal. Your outpouring of love amidst your own pain brought tears to my eyes. One of the questions...that we all have is...Where is our God when we are suffering so? We feel like we have been abandoned and that we are all alone. I know it is so hard to believe...but we are never alone. God is always with us. Sometimes we need to be still and watch for those quiet messages that He is standing near...holding us up. Sometimes it is the breathtaking beauty of a quiet sunset. Or sometimes it is the swooping of a beautiful cardinal when we least expect it. Sometimes it is the gentle nudge from our pets. It could be the hearty laugh of a young child ...who has a huge smile all over his or her face. Tonight it might be the sweet sounds of my choral group as we practice for our spring concert. I can tell you that love fills that room every time we sing! When we least expect it, God comes through. We just need to be open and still...and listen for that gentle sign. Last night He sent me all of you...his own personal angels to pick me up and carry me in my sorrow. So, when you feel all alone...be still and listen. Listen for the love we all have for you. We are there to carry you. We are sent from God Himself because He loved us so much that He gave His only son to die...to save our souls. He knows and understands our pain. He has walked this walk with us. Praying for a peace that passes all understanding. Keep your hearts and minds in Jesus Christ our Lord. He will never fail you. He died to set you and I free! Thanks be to God! Praying for a special comfort this Easter as we miss our children so! My solace is that I know that my daughter is celebrating Easter with Jesus Christ! How could anything be better than that? Love to you all! Lana
Alicia...I am missing you so much this second Easter without you. Hold Skye and Kimlan tight...and give big hugs to all of the children who left this world much too early. We all miss all of you so very much. Until it is time for us to join all of you...we will hold each other tight and carry each other on this difficult journey. I love you so much! Mom

It is so true that we go around and miss all of the beauty God has given us. We need to look around and see that He is here with us at all times and is our biggest supporter out of all.
God Bless you Lana and hope you have a joyous Easter. He is Risen! He has Risen Indeed!

I am so glad u have a strong faith in God. I don't know how others make it through troublesome times without that faith. I will be praying that Gods peace and strength overwhelmes u and fills your heart. What a wonderful thought to hold on to. Your daughter celebrating Easter in heaven with Jesus. I have little ones there myself. What hope we have that one day we will be in heaven with them and never have to say goodbye to them again...Thank u for being such a beautiful woman and staying strong in your faith u are an inspiration to me..Luv and hugs

I stand with you in everything you said. The hard part seems to be staying focused on the hope and not consumed by the despair. I do thank you for all your encouraging and comforting words and I hope that I am able to be helpful to others as well. Bless you...love and hugs...Lynn

So true. In the Bible it says " be still and hear the quiet voice of God". Few of us can be that still. I try and have some success but not always. It's good to be reminded now and again. Have a moment of peace and joy as you sing and make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Love and hugs Cathy
