Today started out rough but ended in huge blessings.....For the past 18 months we have had no more than 6 visitors to our home (besides from my 2 aunts).....which is a huge change as I have always taken care of many friends and family members children as well I had my awana and Christian based basketball team members I taught and coached to my home etc.......but when our son died and our children were removed the knocks no longer came.......I went from this loving person who helped where ever needed to a person hated by my community. ..I lost my basketball team, my awana class I taught, I lost my church home, I lost many many friends, I lost my spot in the choir, I lost my spot on the baby shower committee, I lost my spot in the food committee where I would cook food for families who lost loved ones and I lost my spot in outreach as well as my Sunday school class that I loved being a part of....When I needed someone the MOST..... There were only a few to be found....SO TO THOSE TRUE FAITHFUL FRIENDS AND FAMILY......I SAY THANK YOU.....I FELT MY WHOLE LIFE SLIP RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER ME AND ON THE DAYS I FELT LIKE LIFE WAS NOT WORTH LIVING YOU KEPT ME MOVING.......YOU ENCOURAGED ME, YOU STOOD BY ME AND YOU CHOSE TO TRUST ME FOR WHO YOU TRULY KNEW WHO I WAS...... I CANT TELL U HOW DEEPLY IT HURT TO LOSE ALMOST EVERYTHING BUT MY FAITH.........I HAVE LOST A LOT OF TRUST IN NOT ONLY MY COMMUNITY AND CHURCH HOME BUT IN OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM AS WELL BUT THIS WEEK I HAVE WITNESSED GODS LOVE TIMES 5...... SEVERAL OF YOU HAVE TAKEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO STOP BY MY HOME...SOME EVEN PROVIDED SOME CLOTHES, MONEY, SHOES AND TODAY A DENTIST BLESSED US WITH OFFERING MY KIDS SOME FREE DENTAL CHECKS.....THERE IS NO WORDS TO EXPRESS THE GRATITUDE WE FEEL TODAY.......IT IS A HUGE BURDEN LIFTED AS WE STRUGGLE EVERYDAY HAVING TO CHOOSE BETWEEN BUYING THE MONTHLY MEDS NEEDED OR BUYING GROCERIES FOR OUR 7 KIDS. .... THE FEELING OF NOT KNOWING HOW YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SURVIVE IS EXCRUCIATING AT TIMES AS BEFORE MY SON DIED WE WERE DOING OK......... AND sadly today WE ARE HAVING TO SWALLOW OUR PRIDE AND TAKE HELP......... IN SAYING THIS....I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU WHAT A BLESSING SO MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN THIS WEEK AND YOU KINDNESS HAS HELPED MAKE A STEP IN TRUSTING AGAIN .....MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL
