In the still of the morning air
a calm peace does descend
I find myself renewed in strength
to greet my day again
And no day is unmeetable
if on rising my first thought
is to Thank God for his blessings
and loving, care he has brought
Susie Swanson,2012
I want to say Happy Valentine's Day to all of my loyal, and wonderful friends. I also want to tell everyone that I will be gone from Blogger for a little while as there is sickness in my family. My brother is in the hospital with a possible heart attack, (don't know for sure yet) and my brother in law is in another hospital with kidney failure and they are starting him on Dialysis..It has been an ongoing thing for him since last summer..He has Diabetics..My brother was admitted with very severe pain in his stomach and chest. They are doing the Catherization today ..On top of all this, I've been sick with cold/flu like symptons for over a week..Nothing out of the ordinary there, as everyone already knows that stuff is going around..I just need some time right now to take of everything and hopefully will be back soon. Please be praying for my family and I'm already praying for yours.. we all need prayers.. there are so many in worse shape and I thank God each day for letting me get out of bed..Be back soon and May God Bless Each One of you...Blessings, Susie
We will keep you and your family members in our prayers, Susie.
ReplyDeleteI hope that both your brother and your brother in law get back to normal health and I wish you fast recovery from flu symptoms. You guys will be on my mind.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing the poem. It is really nice:)
Yes, it's a wonderful poem. I'll miss you, but everyone needs a little time to deal with more important things.
ReplyDeleteOh Susie,
ReplyDeleteprayers and thoughts for healing for everyone and hoping you get through the crud that is plaguing you!
Love the poem and you are being well cared for...
Happy Valentine's Day!
Prayers for your family, Susie. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThats another great poem Mom, I have been praying hard.
ReplyDeleteI am your 80th member and you are my 8th.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that!
Looking forward to having a good read through your blog when I get the chance.
Susie, it sounds like you have a lot of people in your life right now that need prayer... I will definitely keep these requests close to my heart. And take care of yourself... I hope you feel better soon! ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed I will pray. You're a blessing. That poem is so true, and as you keep that positive attitude, God will surely move in your behalf!
ReplyDeleteSaid a prayer for you just before I posted this, Susie, but I'll say more. By the way, I tried several times with that friend connect thing on Facebook, but it would never work right for me. Facebook is kind of a farce anyway, it seems to me. It almost never works like it should.
ReplyDeleteThank you all sooo much for the prayers and I want to give a quick update.. My brother is having By Pass Heart Surgery tomorrow...he only has one artery that's not clogged..they said he was a Time Bomb..My brother in law is undergoing surgery as we speak..so please keep the prayers coming and I will be gone after today and don't know when I'll be back on here..love you all and thanks again for your prayers..
ReplyDeleteHi Susie, I'm so sorry that your family is going through such a difficult time. I will be thinking about you and praying for you all. Take good care of yourself too my friend and know that we will all be here waiting for you when you get back. With Love, Delisa
