Oh, I am so sorry, dear F'stix, my heart goes out to you, and I certainly will ping our Finest to this thread, as I know they will want to remember you in their prayers...FReepers are so kind to care for one another when they are needed.

May God Bless you and give you comfort at this time when you are feeling such great losses.

Dear Fiddlstix - I am so sorry to hear of the great burden that you bear. It seems as though our Dear Lord is showing you just how strong you really are.

I hope you will find comfort in the fact that you will be in many FReepers' prayers. I will ask our merciful Father to continue to give you the strength that you need and also that He will heal your hurt.

Your pain is familiar, my parents and one sister preceding me to be with Him.
You are so right about your family here at Free Republic caring about your well-being and supporting you.
Even the quietest and briefest of prayers are carried to God on golden notes and heard!

Immerse yourself in the love and support we offer, as we ask the Holy Spirit to surround you with calm and peace.

In time, the pain will lessen, and you will have all those sweet and wonderful memories of what they gave you throughout your life; and you will be able to pour out upon others that love you felt from them.

The River of Life is a flowing thing, all waters eventually returning to Him!
In the whirlpools and eddies like you have experienced, He always has His hand extended to lift you out of them.....may His love always shine down on you.

Thanks for the ping

God Bless you! I can sympathize, all of my immediate family are resting in our Saviour's Arms. I know how all alone you must feel.

Just remember one thing, it's an old saying, but it is so very true.

"God closes one door, and opens another."

I have taken so much comfort in the doors God has opened for me. So must you.
