Oh gracious! Everyone is being attacked in so many ways -- not just peeps here, but everywhere! Just wanting to say that I'm praying for all requests.
And requesting prayer for a couple more things:
1) a friend was having a family reunion and a plane crashed into his house! One of his daughters and two extened family members were killed. His wife and another daughter are burned & in hospital. Prayers please.
2) many trials from ex right now. ds is suppose to come home this weekend from spending time w/ his father, however there are threats to keep him and accusations that I am a bad mother & etc... whereas I know what type of mother I truly am -- the accusaions plus the evil one can bring doubt, kwim?
3) these trials are now involving my older children and I need very balanced wisdom in the words I speak, and tons of wisdom that comes only from the Lord when I deal the situations that have and will happen because of this...
thank you much

Quick break from my sabbatical - I woke with a nasty sinus headache today - I've taken meds and am working from home this morning - please pray that I don't get too loopy from everything I've taken so far.
Thank you for the prayers from yesterday with the computer - I have moved the files to a location where they won't be deleted again.

I have been pulled out of my sabbatical - and am now going back into it. I need time away from here - to gain some perspective of things - not just in this forum but elsewhere.
Pray that I am open to the leading that God is giving me.
Any PMs or other items will not be read/answered until I return. At this point, I am unsure when that will be - it could be a few days to a week.

First of all, thank you all so much for the prayers and words of encouragement. I think I need to request prayer again. I don't think I'm dealing with the situation with my grandpa very well. All I have wanted to do (and pretty much have done) is sleep. And my whole body hurts so badly that I don't have any desire to do anything else but sleep. I know this isn't right. I know I need to deal with this and I know this isn't the right way. I know I need to be relying on the Lord for my strength but it feels like so much work to even ask. I have to admit it's very hard for me to admit I'm not handling this well and that I need prayer....but I want to get a grip. I want to be a witness to my family during this time. Thank you for your prayers.

Veronica, I agree w/ this... cut yourself a bit of slack. Your body is telling you that you've had a shock -- right now, that is the way your body is dealing with it, soon your mind and heart will deal with it too...
and truthfully, it's ok. The Lord knows what He is doing and He will let you know when it's time for you to be strong and to be a witness for Him... actually, He will probably amaze you in the ways He will work thru you, just because you are so willing, that alone is an amazing testimony!
But please, just know that you are being uplifted it prayers.
Bless your heart! Lots of hugs being sent your way my friend

Veronica I agree with the others.........sleeping is often our bodies way of coping.......I will be praying.
I have prayer request as well.
Some of you might remember me speaking of my friend from the ice who recently lost her mother.
She has been asking some really deep questions about the Lord and I really feel God is opening a door........I know he is knocking, it is so loud I can hear it as well...........please pray she will see Jesus's love in such a way she will chose to begin seeking Him until she decides to give her life to the Lord.
If you would please also pray for she and I next week. She is coming home for the first time and has asked me to go to the house with her and spend the first few nights.
I will do so of course but I admit I need lots of prayer for strength.
Often we have spent many hours on the phone with K crying and grieving.......during the calls I am strong but find myself in tears afterwards...........it is fine now but in in person I don't want to be so weak.
Please pray for wisdom and courage for me and a softened attitude and seeking heart for her.
Thank you so much.

Joy, sometimes the thing that helped me most when I was grieving was when someone would cry with me. It helped to know that others were hurting, too.

Veronica, what they said was right.. When you need to be strong, the Lord will give you the strength and shine through you. For right now, allow yourself to grieve. Praying for you.
Joy, I agree with Esther. Sometimes people need to see that someone will cry with them. When you are too strong in front of people, it can be hard for them to deal with as well.
Praying for all.

If you think about it, would appreciate a prayer for some unspoken stuff that I'm trying to work through. Having a very difficult go of it. Thanks...

Joy, I just wanted to let you know that I don't think the crying and being vulnerable with a friend are a sign of weakness. You are being a good friend allowing her to feel safe to just cry if that's what's needed. And you're heart sharing in that pain is proof of a strong friendship. I will pray for you during this time of being with her in person. I pray God would use this time to draw her to Himself. And I pray God would give you the wisdom of when to say things and when not to.
And praying boots...I know God knows the struggles you are dealing with right now and I pray He will be your strength. I pray you sense Him through it.
Psalm 145:18
The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
Thanks again to all who have lifted me up in prayer. I definitely sensed them last night. I have felt that heaviness that was causing me to sleep so much lifting a little and I felt some true emotions. I'm still exhausted but I feel more up to being with the rest of the family and not shutting them out. I think I was kind of angry with them (and my grandpa) because they were all kind of romanticizing the why. They were saying he did it to be reunited with the love of his life. I was thinking it had to do with the meds he was on from the accident with the bull combining with his epilepsy meds. I guess to me that helped deal with the anger of why he didn't think about how this would hurt everyone else. Anyway...I know we all have our own way with trying to come to grips with this. I am so grateful that I have a backing of prayer warriors to help us through this. Thank you all again.

Robb, you are so totally in my prayers... I have been blessed to know you, and I do care 
Robb;
We love you so much. I echo KuKu with this. No matter what it feels like, this is not a dead-end...it may be a closed door, but it's not a dead end. Somewhere along the corridor there's an open door or window. And we're gonna pray you through until you find it.
You're footloose and fancy-free, boy...nothing to hold you where you are. Is it possible God is about to spice up your life with a move? You can afford to think very creatively and even somewhat dangerously...there's nothing to hold you back.
We'd all be very glad to help you brainstorm, and we'll be praying. I will, anyway.

Praying for all.
A praise & prayer:
after weeks of threats and accusations, my ds is home! Much happened while he was with his father, and I will find out more & more as the days go by. I will need much wisdom in dealing w/ all the after effects....
There will probably be these types of battle for several more years, possibly until ds tells his father to stop & refuses to visit him anymore ---
--- but Praise the Lord, He brought us thru this battle, we are a little bit stronger, we are closer to the Lord and ds is home!!

Praying for you all.
If you happen to remember, please add my father-in-law to your prayers. He has severe muscle (connective tissue) damage in the muscles of his right rotater cuff. The doctor says it's not treatable and he'll eventually lose the use of that arm. (Of course he's right handed)
