Faith Friday

schulme2 · November 2013

Hello Lovely Ladies!

It's time for another Faith Friday!

When you get to Heaven, what would you like to be the first words God says to you?

Is there someone in your life who has really helped to lead you through this journey in faith since your loss?

Is there anything else you're struggling with? Any new steps/revelations this week?

The first words I hope I hear... "Here's your daughter!"

Honestly, I think you ladies have really been so helpful in helping me get back to a good place with God. I would love to get back to church and attend the grief support groups there, but we are on lock-down until flu season is over.

Every day is different. Some days I'm so grateful for all that I have and to have been able to have Mary for 37 hours. Other days I just can't stop saying, "really?!" And "WTF!"

Elsie has been waiting for you.

Is there someone in your life who has really helped to lead you through this journey in faith since your loss? My Dh and my family. My DH just keeps reminding me of the love that has been poured out on our lives.

Is there anything else you're struggling with? Any new steps/revelations this week? I still cannot fathom some days that we are seriously coming up on a year. Its yesterday and 100 years ago all rolled into one. I start understanding the "1000 years are like a day, and a day is like 1000 years" phrase more and more each day.

When you get to Heaven, what would you like to be the first words God says to you? Colton has been waiting for!

Is there someone in your life who has really helped to lead you through this journey in faith since your loss? My DH. He has been such a rock and a comfort. Every time I start to play the "what if" game or "who's fault" he gently reminds that we can't believe in God's perfect plan, and then start to place blame.

Is there anything else you're struggling with? Any new steps/revelations this week? I've been feeling angry and really struggling with a couple people in my life who I feel should be more supportive and understanding and really haven't been. I'm trying to let that go and just realize that not everyone understands. Also, we are having a memorial for Colton on Sunday and both DH and I feel led to really make a proclamation of our faith regarding our loss. This past Sunday at church our pastor talked about faith through suffering and it really spoke to us.

When you get to Heaven, what would you like to be the first words God says to you?

I would like to hear "Well done my good and faithful servant. I've been waiting for you." I don't want words regarding my children, I just want to see Parker and see the child I lost 6 years ago by a miscarriage. I don't know if that baby was a boy or girl, it was too early to tell. I can't wait to hold my babies and love on them for eternity.

Is there someone in your life who has really helped to lead you through this journey in faith since your loss?

I've been lucky to be surrounded by people with incredible faith. My husband and I are both struggling, but we talk about it. I have two friends who have been wonderful to talk to. They understand I'm struggling and don't judge me for my questions. Also my dad has been a rock through all of this. He always lends an ear when I need to talk through faith.

Is there anything else you're struggling with? Any new steps/revelations this week?

Same ole, same ole. However, on the job front, some possible doors have been opened. I don't know if it's where I'm supposed to go, but I'm hoping God will let me know.

When you get to Heaven, what would you like to be the first words God says to you? "I have a really good reason for allowing this to happen: (and God starts to explain)

Is there someone in your life who has really helped to lead you through this journey in faith since your loss? Is there anything else you're struggling with? Any new steps/revelations this week? Truth be told, I have been helping myself! I have been very honest with myself and with God, and told Him that I was disappointed, angry, and immeasurably sad because we lost our precious twins. I also told Him that I was struggling to keep my faith because of this, and invited Him to come heal my heart. Of course, it's a work in progress, but I do feel better since having done so. Also, While we were in Puerto Rico this past week, we went to a natural spring with a sanctuary, blessed by the Virgin Mary Herself (local stories talk about 3 children who saw Her first in a schoolyard, and the rest of the children in the school were called out to see Her, also. Next thing you know, the whole town witnessed it, and She visited for 33 days. Miracles are said happen to those who visit and ask Her for a special intercession.) My faith has been doing better since going.
