Newsletter 5-1
Dear Readers,
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer our survey about what's on your mind. You guys are great! I was so excited to hear your success stories and amazed and pleased to read that most of you are still plowing along in spite of some unbelievable odds. God never intended us to be perfect in every thing but just with quiet strength, to persevere and so many of you are faithfully doing just that. My hat goes off to you!!!!
A lot of you mentioned what an encouragement we are to you but I don't know if you will every fully understand how much your words of kindness mean to us and what an encouragement you all are to us. As you may well understand, sometimes words can't always express the heartfelt thankfulness that we feel and this is one of those times.
All I can say is thank you so much for your support. Armed with the answers from you and your suggestions, we will try to answer as many of your questions that we can along with more ideas and tips on saving money, organizing your homes etc.
One last thing. As I was reading through your answers (yes I read all of them) about half way through I started to become overwhelmed. There were so many of you dealing with frustration, fear, confusion and just plain exhaustion in your lives. I have been exactly where you are at and my heart went out to you. I understand how hard it is to have to wait for an answer to your question, even waiting an hour can seen like an eternity let alone to have to wait weeks for me to get something written (I can only write things so fast).
I just want you to know I stopped at that moment and did the only thing (but probably the most important thing) I could for now and that was to pray that God will help each and every one of you where you are at right now. I tell you this because there have been times when things have been so bad but just to know that there was someone who was really praying for me made all the difference in the world and helped me to carry on.
I don't mean the kind of praying where someone does the "automatic" response of "I'll be praying for you" either, but where they sincerely care and really are praying. We glibly say those words so often without really meaning it (hmmm??? I wonder it that falls into the category of vain repetition?? just a thought) and most of the time those that are hurting and in need of prayer can see right through those vain words. I guess what I'm trying to say in a very round about way is I really, sincerely laid you at God's feet asking Him to help and bless each one of you.
Thank you again for your great support and we will do our best to get the answers to as many of your questions as possible!
May your homes always be seasoned with love,
-Jill
