Strong Women...

I have to tell you....I'm really enjoying this blogging thing! LOL I've told several people how liberating it is. Well...here goes. Blog #2 on day #2...:-)



Today I was going over several posts made by the mom's of "OSA's Darling's". It broke my heart to see what these women are going through on a daily basis.



Isaiah's mom has to deal with the thought of her son dying very soon. Dr's are giving absolutely NO hope. The only thing she has right now, is her faith in GOD - knowing that whatever happens, He is Sovereign and in control. Although she's told me on a few occasions that she has no strength in her...it doesn't show. All I see, is a woman who's tired...but still STANDING. A woman who can stand in the midst of that much sorrow is a woman of Superior Strength! Please keep Patryna in your prayers during this very dificult season of her life.



Samuel's mom has to deal with a young boy who shuts down and shuts her out when he doesn't know what else to do. He is currently refusing to speak and walk. Just today he cried really hard and wouldn't allow his mom to hold and comfort him. As I read her posts daily, her strength and faith just continue to bless me and make me strive to be a better person. I cannot fathome the heartbreak she feels as she watches her son day in and day out in pain. Jodie shows an inner strength that I've not seen in many women. She, too, continues to STAND! Please keep Jodie in your prayers during this very difficult season of her life.



GW's mom is simply amazing! I'm not exactly sure where she is with her faith..but man, she is a STRONG woman! GW is much older than the other 2 boys. His anger and desire to give up have completely broken her spirit. Her post today reads..."still broken...but add exhaustion and tears". As hard as it is to imagine, this incredible woman still continues to believe that things will turn around! I believe it too! God can do anything! He can soften GW's heart, He can be her comfort when nobody's around, and He is giving her the strength to keep holding on in the midst of all the negativity right now. Patti is STANDING strong in her time of trouble. Please keep Patti in your prayers during this difficult season of her life.



I haven't met any of these women personally. But, through emails, FB updates, and messages, I'm so thankful that God has brought these Phenominal women in my life. Thank you Patryna, Jodie, and Patti for being transparent and showing your inner beauty and strength to all those who are priveleged enough to know you! You are MY inspiration! God Bless you!
