Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement and prayer for me. There is so much to say......just getting it out.....
I just received a phone call from my mom that my grandmother is in the hospital with pneumonia and congestive heart failure. She is 93. So need to go see her.

Please let us know how she is when you are able. Stay in faith and in prayer. God is with you, even if you dont feel like He is, its His promise to you.
GBU sister, be safe

Seek for God with in you. He is even closer when you hurt. You may not feel like it because you are so wrapped in your pain. Feel Him with in holding your heart. He loves his little girl.
Gods good and perfect will be done with your grandma.
May you feel His peace.

im praying for your grandma and for all of you, too. His perfect will be done.
Sis, we dont always here Him or feel His presence when we are so wrapped up in our pain. in these times, know that He is with you. He is ever-present. Not just a part of Him, but all of Him, is with you. Love you, sis. God's will be done in all things.
in Jesus,
love momo

HI Shannon....Prayers go with you and with your grandmother. When we are hurting it is then that He is carrying us.
I am reminded of this poem that I copied for you .
Footprints in the Sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,
You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?
