truth & tidings

A sister in christ...send me this article to read. It was indeed an encorangement to read about mary and how she have to continue to do what God wants although others around might think differently about her.

After reading back, I felt the contentment of having so many different elizabeth in my life, spiritual sisters and kept me equiped during times like this. maybe doing it directly through concern and prayers or indirectly through prayers and sending in comments.

It might be those who has gone through the same hardship few years back. It could also be those who are going through it right now. having some family members that is still struggling to survive. This time when i'm in trying to help raymond recover. I realize how important it is to be alive sometimes..knowing that someone is just wanting to live on...but is suffering to suvive...yet many are planning to commit suicide..not knowing their lives are so precious to people who needed it.

In life, we tend to take for granted, we continue living like a nobody's line. We take for granted God's grace for us. We take for granted of the things we eat. We take for granted about others people's care for us. We pin point people's faults instead of respecting their decision or helping them when you know they are in a wrong direction. We do not try to help, instead making more dilusion in whatever matter or step we take.

There are too many illisions in life that would just cause pain and suffering to others, we just do not know. We thought that it'll just be awhile and people will forget and continue on. But we're all wrong. Past experience might give them permanent fears that are not from God. unless they do rely on the same God and leave everything..all their fears and worries to God. To give God all the glory.

Casandra,
Just a short note to let you know that we are praying for Raymond and that you should take heart and not lose faith. We do not know the outcome of this, but we all trust that God is in control for He alone knows the plan He has for us.

Cassandra,

I only can extend my condolescences, and my heartfelt sympathy for you and koko raymond's family. My regret is for not seeing him for the lastime..Never expected it would turn out this way, that the Lord wants him to be with Him so soon.. what saddens me is that we never really knew what caused it to begin with. and for the doctors not being able to even diagnose what was wrong? ..

i read ur blog, i can see you're all wonderful, and never ceasing in holding on to our Father's hands..

however, for now, i hope u have the strength to persevere through this. i understand no words is enough to cure this pain, but hopefully time will heal you.
