It's almost 1 am in California. I just got done reading the bible, I read for hours tonight, my heart is overwhelmed with joy from all the blessings that the good Lord has given me. Today was the first time I have visited this website, a friend of mine died from a motorcycle accident few days ago, they held a funeral service for him this morning. I spoke to his wife and sent my condolences. All afternoon I was feeling really sad and found myself openning an old box down in our garage, looking at my mother's old photographas, old letters that she sent me when she was ill and bed ridden fighting a cancer in 1991. One of her letters as I was reading it, has the link to this website (http://members.boardhost.com/mysticrose/msg/342.html) she wrote in her old letter, Dated May 2001 "My loving daughter thank you for creating a hotmail account for me a year ago I am keeping myself busy with looking at the internet for prayer bulletin board where I can ask for people to pray for us, and my health because I know where there is one or more people praying for each other, the God will hear all the noise and he will respond more quickly. You will think that is funny but that is how mom puts it in words but you know what I mean. God is like a father who's children's noises will get his attention and he will promptly grant their wishes just to stop the nuisance. Like when you and your brothers and sister wants something from Dad you would all make noises at the same time and daddy will say okay-fine, you got your wish. As I was reading that part of my mother's old letter, I went back upstairs and typed in the link and I found the prayer that she wrote, I started to cry and I miss her so much, in the midst of my sadness, and my alone-ness, I was feeling really sad and I was about to break down and cry, and the phone rang. It was my husband on the other line, calling from the ship while on a deployment. Upon hearing his voice, my spirit was lifted up, I was comforted, I calmed down, We talked for about an hour, we laughed, and shared our love for each other through a phone call, one simple phone call.....I found myself feeling at peace, at home... Before reading the bible tonight I thought about simple blessings in life, and my husband's phone call today is a blessing, a sign from the Lord that I am not alone, he used my husband as a tool to show me his way of telling me that he is out there, looking down on me, comforting me, and my husband was Lord's tool to show me how much I am loved and being guarded by the good Lord who brings peace and joy and hope and love, by using my husband as a tool to uplift my spirit, to make me feel love, and joy and happiness. It is passed 1 o'clock in California and here I am posting my story, to ask everyone to say a thank you prayer for all the blessings in our lives, to thank the Good Lord for his miracles, his love, his guidance. THANK YOU LORD FOR YOUR LITTLE BLESSINGS IN LIFE THAT MATTERS THE MOST. THANK YOU LORD, FOR SHOWING US THAT YOU ARE WATCHING OVER US, THANK YOU LORD, FOR MY WONDERFUL LOVING HUSBAND GARRETT, THANK YOU LORD FOR GIVING US A GOD FEARING HEART. AND PLEASE PLACE YOUR HANDS TO THE SICK AND THE ONES THAT ARE IN NEED OF YOUR GUIDANCE AND YOUR HELP, SEND THEM YOUR ANGELS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT AND MAKE THEM FEEL THAT THEY ARE NOT ALONE, THAT YOU ARE THERE FOR THEM. LIKE YOU WERE WITH ME TODAY, WHEN YOU MADE MY HUSBAND MADE A SIMPLE PHONE CALL THAT COMFORTED ME AND KEPT ME SAFE AND SECURED AND FELT LOVE DURING THE MOST SADDEST HOURS OF MY DAY. PRAISE BE TO THE LORD. AMEN.
