Bad News
Apr 26, 2007
I am sad to say that we have had a housefire and lost everything.  I am sitting at a computer in the lobby of the hotel where the Red Cross has put us up til Monday check out time.  We are needing to get a rental somewhere and do not know if we will in time.  Please pray for us and if you have any encouragement I would love to hear it.  The kids and I were home and we still have some of the animals.  We lost the bunny and still cannot find 4 kitties.  Ozzie my predator cat is singed pretty well and we are attempting to nurse him back to health.  I spent some time in the hospital from my injuries and am on the mend.  Hubby had the week off with pay from his job and so worked for me so I could keep my job.  Lost my purse and so now have to get the birth certificate for all of us, social security cards as well and then my license redone.  Wish I had someone to hold my hand sometimes.  I thought you should know so that my absence is explained.  I did click to donate today and then posted this announcement.  I hope none of you have to ever experience this.  I thank you for being my friends.  I appreciate you very much.  I hope to keep you updated if you are interested and be a busy member here soon.  Wish my luck, prayers are welcome.  Hope you can have a good finish to your week!!!

We have hope!!
Nov 25, 2006
Hello, have some good news I think...a gentleman by the name of Clark Hunter came over to the property today and we spoke and toured the house...he thinks that he might be able to help us to get back into the house...maybe by spring or so...he has worked for the Red Cross and Habitat and with some Menonite friends he might be able to assist us in getting back to square one!  If you do not know the story then check out http://www.helpneeded.zoomshare.com/  ,the story and pictures are there..Am hoping that prayers, positive energies and words of encouragement might come our way.  Thanks in advance..

Hope to make a few more shares in the near future...have been busy working most of the summer.  I still open mail from then...hope to be all caught up before the beginning of the new year...Take care!!

Angels
Aug 22, 2006


Remember that the angels work through synchronicity and that if we remain open, not closed, to all possibilities, we may receive their messages of insight, love, and hope through virtually any channel of earthly communication. All we have to do is keep on watching and listening.

Do I dare ask for a letter writing compaign to help me...?  Well here is the address:  Christian Aid Ministries. P.O. Box 360 Berlin, Ohio 44610

If you could drop them a couple of lines as to them making a bit of time for my family and I...we will be forever in your debt

some thoughts
May 15, 2006

It was God who made the hearts of the faithful serene, so that their faith could grow stronger. To God belong the armies of both the heavens and the earth. God is wise, and knows all.

-Qur'an, Al-Fath, Surah 48:4
From "366 Readings From Islam," translated by Robert Van der Weyer. Copyright 2000. All rights reserved. Used with permission of The Pilgrim Press, Cleveland, Ohio.




Do not lose hope in Allah, for He is the Creator. He will create another way for you. Do not flee from your trials; patience in adversity is the foundation of all virtue, of compassion and sainthood. Patience is the foundation, and without a sound foundation you cannot build a monument.

-Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jillani, "Fayuz E Yazdani"
