I wish I had your strength of faith! I lost my beloved daddy prematurely to cancer, and I'm sorry to say I did not handle my loss like you are. I was very close to giving up on God; years have passed as I continue trying to get back on track. Reading how you are clinging to Him and trusting Him in the midst of heartbreak is helping me in my still-somewhat-shaky walk. Thank you for sharing your heart with us.<br /><br />Leigh in TexasLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714232880654882327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576521988054772040.post-54997405739958508232009-09-25T17:56:19.274-07:002009-09-25T17:56:19.274-07:00May God bless you, dear Katie. I visit your blog ...May God bless you, dear Katie. I visit your blog at least once a week to "check in" on you, and every time, I'm so touched at your testimony of faith. Stay strong, dear sister, because you have the strength of the Lord and the love of many who silently watch, both here on earth and in heaven. It's all just a journey, isn't it? I know your feet must be bleeding from the wounds of your particular journey right now, but there are many who wish to bind them up and heal them for you. I would if I could, but because I can't, I will pray. Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, YOUR WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, and THE POWER, and THE GLORY, forever and EVER. Amen. As you read that, we said that prayer together. We are joined in the love of Christ, as is your sweet baby girl. Let His powerful love wash over you and heal you, dear one. Don't be afraid to heal; it won't mean you love little Reese any less. God created her mama to shine the light of His love to the world, so shine on, Katie, shine on. With lots of bright hopes for you and yours, BeckyBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02900659581244851168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576521988054772040.post-18409558813819105272009-09-25T17:33:31.448-07:002009-09-25T17:33:31.448-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164507420189544509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576521988054772040.post-15034785511643766212009-09-25T17:26:42.172-07:002009-09-25T17:26:42.172-07:00Still thinking and praying for you daily.Still thinking and praying for you daily.life with my sweetieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08140682356463938901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4576521988054772040.post-32374289089793394712009-09-25T16:50:00.096-07:002009-09-25T16:50:00.096-07:00Katie,

I've seen her grieve as a mom and how she still does. It breaks my heart. A child is a child no matter the age. I think of you alot when I see her.
