Your prayers are such a comfort and help.
I have not heard an update from my friend.
I will keep you updated.
Love,

Praying for your friend. May she be showered with grace to bear her pain, and a Simon to help her carry her load.

I want to post to you as I would someone I know. But I'm afraid you might not know me well enough to take this the right way.. so I want to explain a bit. Sometimes when I'm down all the lovely true things just make me melt and while they feel good they still leave me feeling weak. And that's when I like something a bit more bracing. And I hope that I can share that feeling with you with this song.. it's intended to give you hope on getting through whatever it is.. it has so many truths still.. especially that there are people out there that will help you!
Quote:
If You're Going Through Hell by Rodney Adkins
Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Says I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do
You step off the straight and narrow
And you don't know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you
That's when you learn the truth
If you're going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
Well I been deep down in that darkness
I been down to my last match
Felt a hundred different demons
Breathing fire down my back
And I knew that if I stumbled
I'd fall right into the trap that they were laying, yeah
But the good news
Is there's angels everywhere out on the street
Holding out a hand to pull you back up on your feet
The one's that you've been dragging for so long
You're on your knees
You might as well be praying
Guess what I'm saying
If your going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, If you're going through hell
Keep on moving, face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
If you're going through hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, If you're going through hell
Keep on moving, face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, you might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there.

Continuing prayers during these dark hours of the night, that you might find light in your day, and the joy and peace that have seemed so far away.

Praying now as I sit up nursing baby. May you feel the closeness of Our Lord, Our Lady, and the saints throughout this night, and at the dawning of a new day!

I have been remembering you in my prayers since I first read the request. I am so sorry you are struggling with this, but please know that even dear St. Therese knew the feeling that you are enduring.
We continue to pray for you and want you to know you are loved.

You all are very dear. While I haven't had direct contact with my friend, she appears to be back to her routine.
Thank you so much for your heart-felt concern and prayers.
Love,

Still thinking and praying for you. I get these daily quotes from St. Josemaria's writings, and I was thinking of you when I got the last two days.
http://www.opusdei.us/art.php?p=17585
Quote:
"He will give you his strength"
When you find yourself worn out or fed up, go and confide in Our Lord, as that good friend of ours did, and say: "Jesus, see what you can do about it. Even before I begin to struggle, I am already tired." He will give you his strength. (The Forge, 244)
You want to know on what our faithfulness is founded? I would say, in broad outline, that it is based on loving God, which makes us overcome all kinds of obstacles: selfishness, pride, tiredness, impatience|... A man in love tramples on his own self. He is aware that even when he is loving with all his soul, he isn't yet loving enough. (The Forge, 532)
Jesus, who has encouraged this feeling of emptiness in us, comes out to meet us and says: "If anyone thirst, let him come to me and drink" (John 7:37). He offers us his heart, so that we can find there both rest and strength. If we accept his invitation, we will see that his words are true. And our hunger and thirst will increase to the point that we desire God really to inhabit our soul and never to take his light and warmth away from us. (Christ is passing by, 170) |

Quote:
"Oh, Jesus! I rest in you"
Physical collapse. You are worn out. Rest. Stop that exterior activity. Consult a doctor. Obey, and don't worry. You will soon return to your normal life and, if you are faithful, to new intensity in your apostolate. (The Way, 706)
If you don't leave him, he won't leave you. (The Way, 730)
Depend on Jesus for everything. You have nothing, are worth nothing, are capable of nothing. He will act, if you abandon yourself to him. (The Way, 731)
Oh, Jesus! I rest in you. (The Way, 732)
So you couldn't care less? Don't try to fool yourself. This very moment, if I were to ask you about certain people and undertakings in which for God's love you put your soul, I know that you would answer me eagerly, with the interest of one speaking of what is his own. It's not true that you don't care. It's just that you're not tireless, and that you need more time for yourself: time that will also be for your activities since, after all, you are the instrument. (The Way, 723) |
