Hi, guys. Salamander needs our prayers, as she just lost her husband. Any words of comfort or anything positive are kindly solicited on her behalf.
Thanks and God Bless, --D.J.
FReeper FRiends that have Posted on this Thread, Salamander and I need your help with an attitude adjustment quest. See the above Post from Salamander, She’s trying to GIVE UP !!!
TIA
This Post if for You Dear.
Salamander, it will go to probate and you should be favored for everything.
Please do not despair.
When Christ told us to turn the other cheek, it was to make room for HIM to enact justice on our behalf, not to be a door mat. Hear what I’m saying to you; if you humble yourself in this circumstance TO GOD, He will protect you and provide for you. Your husband’s family has nothing on the true, living God.
I’m sorry and understand. I believe the spirit lives on and I speak with my dear Jim often.
Please do not give up. There are a lot of people who love you. Your work is not done yet.
Please!

I am so sorry for your loss. My Prayers are with you!
Dear Salamander, I know things look bleak now and you’ve faced quite a storm. You are amazing. Please, please don’t give up. There are many of us who love you and know the light you put out to the world. Please keep the faith.
I saved this from 2020 when I lost two people very near and dear to me and it helped. I hope and pray you will get some comfort from it. I love you, friend.
Beauty for Ashes
“…to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness…” Isaiah 61:3
TODAY’S WORD:
It’s easy to live discouraged because of disappointments and things we don’t understand. We worked hard, but we didn’t get the promotion. We prayed, but our loved one didn’t make it. We did our best, but the relationship didn’t work out. Life is not always fair, but God says He will take what was meant for your harm and use it to your advantage. He says He will pay you back double for the unfair things that happened. He says He will give you beauty for the ashes, but you have to let go of the ashes before you receive the beauty. You can’t hold on to the old and expect to receive the new. The past is over and done. That’s why it’s called the past. Quit dwelling on it, quit reliving it. You’re not going to understand everything that happens, but God has a purpose for it. He knows how to bring good out of it. So keep moving forward.
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
“Father, thank You that the past is over and done, and I can quit dwelling on it. Thank You that You had a purpose for the good and the bad of my past, and I can let it go and move forward. I believe You are giving me beauty for ashes. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
Dear Friend,
My heart aches for you, BUT GOD!!!!! God has never met a problem that perplexed Him. Why not cast all your cares and sorrows on Him and stand and watch to see what He will do? What do you have to lose? Prayers continue. What does a Father God Who loves you want for you? VICTORY!!! IN THIS LIFE! The next life is guaranteed victory, but so is this one . It’s just not guaranteed that the problems don’t arise. Ask God to take over for you. He will. Much love to you.
I have no advice...just prayers that God will hear your cries for help and wrap you tightly in His powerful arms where you will receive what you need to keep moving forward.
You have many FRiends who love you.
Why do good people have to suffer? It’s a tough question to answer, but those who ask that question must never forget what Christ himself suffered.
Shari, dear FRiend -
God works any avenue He can, including reaching out to you through the many Folks here, offering So Much good advice, that will help you IF you act upon it.
You have been through so much, so do rest, and Care for yourself, in order to rise stronger and ready to act.
Read through this thread, allowing the outpouring of support and caring to give you comfort and strength. Write down All the actionable good advice and then - start working through it as you are able.
Dear Lord, please hear our prayers for our FRiend, Shari, seeing her through this terrible time with Your guidance, comfort and love.

Prayers up for Salamander and her hubby. She’s a good person, and I enjoy her comments here on FR immensely. And I really like her home page!
Every ‘dark’ cloud has a silver lining. You must learn how to mine it, prosper on it. We are all tested, even by evil forces. We MUST pass the test. Chin up, smile and pray. The great Lord above is our happiness and salvation. Don’t hesitate to send me private mail and I’ll give you my phone number to chat. I, as so many others here are here for you.
God Bless
Hrafi is now cancer free. The funds still go to Salamander.
I saw no reason to spend time making another one.
I would think that since we are on the Thread about Salamander losing Her Husband that it would be self explanatory since this is FR we are on.
Apparently I was mistaken.
______________________________
I agree. There is no point starting a new page when there is already one that works and people have successfully donated using it in the past couple days.

Yes it works I checked before I Posted the Link.
FReepers have donated $1,020.00 since I posted the link. So Shari at least has some money for food, gas, etc.
FReepers, I Thank Y’All for Your donations to Shari’s fund.
Wish I could go see her and help in person, but Maryland is over 500 miles away from me.
Amen.

"...there will be nothing left" I'm sure you know that isn't true. There are a million little lives out there suffering for a lack of love. People like you are a gift to them. A gift from God to them and us. Let time do its work dear sister. God will never leave you and neither will your eternal family. Don't you leave us.
