Im going to share something as kindly as possible.. The storm that Ive been going through has knocked the wind out of me and I fight daily to maintain for the sake of my daughter and my other children and grandchildren. Unless you have walked where Ive walked, seen what Ive seen, endured what Ive endured, theres no way you could understand but I do expect you to be genuine. Ive gotten hurt by many so called friends, who after the tragedy of losing my husband my home and everything we own, they went looking on my Facebook page, not to be a friend or share a word of encouragement but to negatively gossip about the tragedy, Ive had people talk about my clothes, but dont understand that all I have is all I have yet those people didnt care to offer an item of clothing to me or my daughter, Ive had people gossip about my hair color and length, but had no idea that a beautiful kind stylists named Shenice Thatstylist used her own hair, died it to match my hair color, sewed it in for me and did it all at no charge because I was going through and she wanted in some small way to put a smile on my face and she did. Ive had people comment about a tattoo that I got at age 22 (Im now 44), when I was young and didnt know the Lord, Ive had people insinuate all kinds of appalling things or call my phone and say they are sorry for what Ive gone through while gossiping about me and my now deceased husband to others in negative ways. Ive had someone talk negatively about my family while they were attending the memorial of my husband and they were helping during his service. Im saying this because its true and I know all about it but I CHOOSE to stay quiet and not hurt you like youre hurting me, because wisdom is not always in speaking your mind at that time. I may win the battle if I speak out of character but lose the war which is to show Christ in me. To all of you that do these horrible things to hurting people, please stop. Life is full of challenges and if you live long enough you will experience your lot of grief and loss too. Be kind to others, dont back bite, dont gossip and hurt your brothers and sisters in Christ or even those that have not found him yet. Its important for you to remember the fragile condition of human beings and the human heart. The broken things they have gone through and remember that either you, your children, and or your grandchildren may experience rough times and how would you want to be treated? How would you want your children or grandchildren to be treated. Remember that Im someones mother, Im someones grandmother, Im someones daughter too. I pray today your mind is changed and you discontinue these appalling behaviors. For those that genuinely care for me and my family.. I cant say thank you enough! Thank you for everything youve done for us, you were like the two men that held Moses arms up while he stretched the rod to the Red Sea it allowed the Israelites to make it over. Your love care and compassion held my arms up when I was too tired to keep going. I am grateful to each of you for every meal, every article of clothing, every call, every card, every gift, it helped me through a very rough time that by Gods mercy and grace he is bringing me through day by day. May God pour his favor and grace all over your life!!! I still trust God and know that hes working it out. Thank you.
