Dear Ladies,
Would you please pray for me as my mom and her husband are arriving today, that we be lights.... of Christ's Love and Truth, and not stressmongers! 
Every time she leaves I feel very strange--- almost oppressed, a black cloud envelopes me. I know it's ridiculous....but that's the way it is.  Her mate is an atheist and a card-carrying member of the ACLU. We just couldn't be more different and she has slowly over the years fused into his thoughts and become like him.
I want to be positive about this, not so weird. I'm a grown woman and they are in their 60's and 70's for Heaven's sakes!
Anyway, thank you for praying!

Praying, Nina. Just be your best you...and detach. Easier said than done, I know. I just had to say it though, because you are such a bright light, so Christ-like to so many...just let His light shine, friend!
Love,

Dear Nina, You are God's beacon of light amongst those closest to you and yet, who are so far away..I pray that this will not be a time of stress for you all and that your loved ones will come to recognise that light and step into one day...

Thank you, dearest women---- for saving us. (Yes!)
It was hard yesterday. But I'm sure it would have been worse without you.
I just could not for the life of me get to sleep last night and I kept awakening. It was awful. 
So, thank you so much again for praying! And helping to turn it all around to something good....  God's ways are a mystery....so above us....
FORTITUDE!!!!!!!

Well, they left.
It was difficult, and I'm sad today. (And it's Pentecost!) So, thank you very, very much.
God bless you all.

Veni Sancte Spiritus
Some of the words in the sequence, are just for you Nina! (well, we can all relate to them..)
"...refreshment in the noonday heat;
and solace in our grief."
"..refresh from heaven our barren clay,
our wounds and bruises heal."
It is just the feast needed to recover from the week you have had, may you be blessed this day!

Thank you so much, Anne.
Funny thing is Father told us yesterday he wanted us to go home and recite the Sequence again and ask for each of the things mentioned and EXPECT them. I had forgotten. Thank you for being His channel!!!!!
