bp,
I have really been going through the mill, to be honest. I hate to continually be on the “ needing” end here, so I often just read..... guess I am missing a blessing.
We are now faced with raising our 8 year old grandson, along with a 16 year old special need daughter. Our grown, adult children have had turbulant marriages. A far cry from what I ever thought our world would look like. Raising them in a Christian home. Surrounded by God’s Word, and love, I wouldn’t have dreamed things would be like this.....it sent me down hill physically in November and I haven’t really recouped. I go in for surgery a week from Tuesday and hopefully will be working towards some healing in my life.

Am I downtrodden? NO! God is alive and will win the battles in my life....infact His Word says that these trials are our “ friends”.
Hugs to you all,
Polly

Dear Polly,
I will pray that your body will endure and heal.

I thank God that He is holding you and strengthening you day by day.

May He give you deep rest and bless you while you sleep.

I also ask for His provision for your situation, and that your children would turn their hearts to Him fully.

His Love Never Fails.
