Mlg thanks sis. I know that this will be very hard for her to work through but I also know that He is more than enough for what see and I need.
I am sure lots and lots of tears will be shed together and alone. but I have got to totally trust HIM with this one.
Prayers are greatly appreciated.

God's timing is amazing.
It is a terrible thing that happened but...
You are finding your freedom when this comes out so you will be able to help her. If it had come any sooner... the walls would have been in the way. But now, with the trust you have in God, you will be able to talk to her...Have Holy Spirit help guide you and your words.

Okay Trusting God in this I am.....just gotta few questions if that is ok

I have cried for 2 days now. Everytime I think about it I tear up. I close my eyes and I see her in the woods with him on her and her brother having to watch. Then It switches positions with her having to watch him on her brother. Yes that did happen to. The cousin told both of them that he would shoot them if they told. '
With me crying so much, is that not trusting God?
Then the protection mode kicks in. They don't need to go anywhere without mom. But I am not doing that to them but I really really want to.
Is that not trusting God?

Yes Dee you are right...if this would have came about any sooner...I would not have been able to handle it. This is very very hard. I am 35 days today cut free and honestly have not wanted to cut. I can't imagine what my legs and arms and stomach would have looked like If God did not have me in the place HE does now.

Because this is very hard, does that mean I am not trusting GOD?
This trusting stuff is so new and I don't want to miss it up but I also don't want to do something that I may need to be doing.

I don't know if this makes any sense but I hope so. If I can just slow my mind down long enough to think normal maybe I could think just a little better. I did spend my quiet time with God today and I have been listening to His word pretty much all day today. Keeping the good going in so the bad can not latch on.

Oh well
enough rambling.

Dear Tam,

No, your tears are not as a result of not trusting God. I cried too when I read your posts about your daughter and your son.

Keep laying down those "vision" at the feet of Jesus. Talk to The Holy Spirit whenever they arise in your mind. Cry aloud the name of Jesus.

Tam, prayers continue to rise for you and your family -- prayers to our Lord, in the blessed name of Jesus.

God's blessed will be done.

God bless and keep you.
Love,
Mack

Tam, my heart hurts for you and I know that what you are facing is difficult, but God has prepared you for this battle sis...you have spent time now getting to know God and realizing that He can do much for you. Now it's time to lean on His strength and know that He will move for your daughter. God is faithful to those who love Him...and He knows you do sis. Hang in there.

luv ya lots

How much more He cries over us.

Just as He has us...He has them.

Where would I be today with out what I went through? Perhaps loving my life with 2.5 children, 2 car garage and career and maybe even visit the church on Easter and Christmas.

If this is what it took to get me to Christ, and to make me a servant, then it was worth it. Sometimes when the pain is heavy and I feel like I may suffocate I revisit that thought and ask myself again if it was worth it.

No matter what they went through God can and will bring good from it.

You are doing right getting her help. She may be lashing out in pain just as we did to God. She will come around. Everything will be alright.

Love you much. *hug*

Ok so I took another mental day off from work. I have got to get a grip. I know that God has me in all of this and I trust HIM. Just wish I knew what to do with everything that is going on in my head. Gotta find some sense of it somewhere. Hubby is gone out of town and it is me and the kids this weekend doing the band contest all day tomorrow. I have got to get it together and be strong. Can't let all them strangers see me all teary eyed! Yes I am going and am going to sit beside the band with my daughter by my side so that I can keep my eye on both of them. If anyone gets to close then MOM will step in. (I know that is not trusting but that is really what I want to do but know that I can't)

Gonna ride out to the lake for a little while with my ipod and bible and just sit and talk to Dad. Thinking that would be the best thing that I could do right now.

Thanks for your prayers. Love you guys bunches.
