Have you ever come across a freeper that you have grown close too? Yes, we all have. FreeRepublic draws us all together.
I've grown very close to one specifc freeper. NW_Arizona_Granny.
She is so much more than someone I ping or bump. It is as if I've always known her. I have a surreal closeness with her. I can see her and feel her; but I've never met her.
NW_AZ is more than a FRiend. She has been my mentor. My best friend for the last few years. But it feels longer. Like she has always been there.
Ruth needs our prayers now. I know I'm praying and praying hard. I thank God you are still here so I can let you know I love you. You are so much like my Mama Nome. And you mean as much to me as she did (and still does).
Ruth, this is from Dan, his symbolic way of adding his prayers:
And my future promise:
Inside loving joke.
But I would rather you fight and stay with us. I would be lost not having you there to tell my life to. I would be lost not being able to shoot you a story and not having to explain myself. I would be lost not having you there as my friend. Please, what Vel said sounds promising. Let's all pray and get over this initial bad sounding news.
Agreeing in prayer.
From Lamentations 3:
18b ... I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:
19 Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
20 My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
21 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22 It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
