Prayer for a Member - Lost her daughter Update Pg 16

[newchickenfamily]

Just stopping by to give another

. My mom feels my brother's presence around her often and in many different ways. Even after 2.5 years.

Also, we haven't had the heart to take down my brother's MySpace page. It's still up and his friends leave notes from time to time. It means so much to hear from his friends in that way.

Hang in there.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone, and those who sent PM's, too. Can't answer them all or I'd fall apart.

BarkerChickens, I'm not sure where Kerry's daddy is now but a mean part of me hopes she's with her Grandpa & Papaw and not her daddy. He filed for divorce in 1999 a week after my dad was diagnosed with cancer. And he spent the past 10 years buying the kids affection with electronics while telling them how mean and awful I am. He killed himself to avoid 12 years in prison. I know Kerry loved him, and I never said an ugly word about him to my kids, but she saw what a bottom-dweller he could be. And I can't help but think that if he'd faced the consequences of his poor decision-making then maybe she'd still be here today.

Please keep my Cassie in your prayers. My poor baby is really having a hard time. The folks at school take good care of her, but she just has sooooo much hurt inside of her! And she was trying to hide it to keep from upsetting me. We had a long talk last night and she has counseling today. But this is more than any child should have to bear. It's almost more than I can bear, missing Kerry and wanting her back. And Cassie is missing her dad as well as her sister.

I can see why people turn to drugs and alcohol to escape their grief. Trying to cope while leading a 'normal' life is HARD.
Been doing a lot of praying and trying to find normal...

I'm sooooo sorry you have to endure what you are. I can't even begin to imagine what you or your daughter must be going through. I will pray for peace for both you and your daughter and that somehow the support and prayers being sent to you from your fellow bycer's will give you the strength you need to keep going. If it's okay with you I would like to add your family's name to our prayer list at church. Extra prayers never hurt anyone....

Extra prayers would be awesome. I was told by a friend that she has people around the world praying for us. It means a lot to me to know that.

Here is a prayer I pray. Its one of Joyce's (Joyce Meyer Mins) "Father, I come to you in Jesus' name, and I apply the blood of Jesus to my life, to all that belongs to me, and to everything you have given me to steward. I put the blood of Jesus on my mind, my body, my emotions, my will. I put the blood on my family, my co-workers and my friends. Thank you for protecting me with your blood. Amen." Learn this prayer and say it every day! Along w "Threw his stripes I/We will be healed." Sometimes I meditate on this , I repeat it over and over along w the "Our Father" Just remember you may not know me but, this forum got me threw somthings not long ago. I don't like to talk much but the humor and poultry stuff kept me occupied along w Jesus' and prayer. I am so sorry for you/your daughter.
