Time – 131 days…Emit – vocalize
This week has been the most difficult since October. Yesterday, after 130 days we finally received a death certificate. I will not bore you with the unbelievable details that we have endured with the City of Kirksville and the county of Adair, MO. I am sure that most believe we would be working on healing these past four months and not dealing with making weekly phone calls or trips to ask why or when we will have paperwork to send to so many places that require this. It finally showed up. Wounds flew open. I certainly pray the people that have been involved never have to endure what they have placed upon our family, on top of tragic loss.
During the past 24 hours I have been sent many Angels to bring me peace. It is amazing how God places people and His word in our path during great distress. A dozen messages sent to me today, unexpected from Connor’s friends, my friends and family! Each of them, not knowing my day, with words of good news, encouragement or a simple “how are you?” Amazing…
Yesterday, I was on a five hour drive home from work, when the waves of grief began again. I stopped, looked up and saw a pink tow truck that advertised “Donny Bells towing” with Proverbs 3:5-6 written on the back. I looked up the verse.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
Our God is an awesome God! He does speak to us, we only need to listen. Thank you to the towing company… I will never forget. Thank you to all the kindhearted people that reached out to me this week. You never know when your thoughtfulness can change a life. Never hesitate when it comes to kindness to others or sharing His word! May God bless you richly, as you have blessed me!
Much love, MamaC
So happy that you have the “eyes to see” & “ears to hear” His still small voice, His Mighty big voice, & His amazing gifts of comfort. Your blog often leaves me speechless, unable to put my feelings into organized sentences as a reply. I see God working so clearly during this tragic time even from such a distance as mine. I cannot fathom getting through these trials without Him. So thankful He continues to reveal Himself to you through so many vessels……such as this awesome truck!! I love you.
I love you too Karen!
