hello, here's a joke for you! God bless you today and always.
Which Way to Heaven?
Reverend Billy Graham tells of a time early in his ministry when he arrived in a small town to preach a sermon. Wanting to mail a letter, he asked a young boy where the post office was. When the boy had told him, Dr. Graham thanked him and said, "If you'll come to the Baptist Church this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to heaven."
The boy replied, "I don't think I'll be there... You don't even know your way to the post office."
Hi Susan, I just read what you wrote in our deoression group. If you'd really like to have a friend, I can be your friend. I'm older than you are by far. I'm 71 years old, we've been married almost 54 years, we've had 4 kids, 8 grandkids and 2 great grandsons with 1 great grandchild on the way.
I know the Lord wants us to take care of ourselves. Please take care of yourself Susan! love, Darlene
I hope these Holy scriptures will give you comfort:
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. – Matthew 11:28-30
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. – Philippians 4:6

Thank you Susan for your reply, I am happy to be counted as one of your friends. Remember that Jesus is our greatest friend and he is standing by the Father interceding on our behalf. We have to daily and sometimes hourly seek His strength. Paul said to "pray constantly" and in Hebrews we read that Jesus became perfect through his suffering. Our low spots in life bring us closer to God and becoming closer to being perfect in our Christian walk. I will be praying for you and your family, your financial situation but most of all for your walk with Jesus each day. Your Brother in Jesus.
Susan, please know that many are praying for you. When God seems farthest away He is still by your side. I will be praying for you and your family this week, for the jobs your need, the faith to carry you and the complete assurance that God is hearing your prayers.
hey Susan,
I saw your message in the prayer room and I believe God wants me to respond.
I am sooo sorry about the loss of your dad and I understand you miss him. Please know you can tell God all about your feelings and how you miss your dad, better yet to tell God that He is your dad and you love Him too.
God's words are love letters to us and His Word says that He loves you soo much and He will never ever leave you or forsake you, He is the friend the sticks closer than a brother. I love you dear friend and hope to hear from you soon.
