Lord, wash over me Your loving kindness, Your gentle spirit, and whisper love while I wait.
Hold me in your arms just now, and carry me through this dark place.
For I know your love is better than life.
Let me love the valleys more than all else, for they lift me to You.
Let me cherish the empty places, for they fill me with You.
Let my tears cleanse away the clutter like rain that brings fresh life again.
Thank you that You know my heart when it’s impossible for anyone else to
And let me rest in that knowing as my faith look up to Thee.

Kelly, keeping you in my thoughts and prayers…I can relate to this, also.
Love,
Peggy

My heart grieves for your sadness and I will be praying for you and your family. I am so glad that we serve a God who is all-sufficient to carry you through whatever you are experiencing.
I am so sorry for whatever is happening, but I am grateful you are a child of the King who can rest in His Sovereignty. praying for you and yours, GfG
Love and prayers for you and yours…
Oh wow ! I do not know what is the reason for this post. But ss someone whose choices are not yours, who comes from a different culture and has tried hard to understand what is going on around me, if you are feeling alienated, are harshly judged by others who do not know you or your heart, especially christians, when you are trying your best, I can absolutely relate with you.
As you said, only God knows our hearts. Please know that even for someone who is as different from you as me, your website and ministry have helped. That is the only reason I keep coming back. Since I find more things I agree than I disagree with you. Even though our paths on this may be totally different.
God Bless you

Praying for you…
Praying for you Kelly, your little one and your whole family. Though I don’t know you in person, you are my sister, and God has given you a special place in my heart. I hurt with you right now, and attribute it to the unity found in Christ Jesus. My tears mingle with yours as the Lord captures them all in a bottle. This is a brave and trusting prayer you pray. Know that you are being held. Sending gentle hugs and a tender heart…. praying.
Praying for you and your family…
Kelly, I didn’t realize you were going through a rough time! I’m sorry. Praying for you!
I am praying for you today Kelly, may God uphold you and bring you through.
This song has helped me. I hope it may help you, I certainly don’t intend for it to add to your burden.
Tree63 \ Blessed Be Your Name
Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where the streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say…
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
Blessed be your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say…
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, Blessed be your name
Praying
Thank you so much for the ministry of your prayers….I woke with such a renewed sense of God’s grace and strength and the truth that “when we our weak, He is strong”–the result of His goodness and the sweet prayers of my dear sisters.
I continue to pray for you, little darling. Love and prayers go out to you and for you during this time.
Blessings to you and thank you for these thoughts. It is a joy to wake up and find your posts in my inbox. You bless me everyday…thank you!
