Thank you for reading and taking the ti...MaryBeth,<br /><br />Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment. I am happy to email you....<br /><br />I wanted to share my heart with you for a minute this morning. Your comment grieved my spirit and I just wanted to offer some insight....<br /><br />Maybe it will shed some light in some small way.<br /><br />The bad behavior that you feel got her there in the first place comment...<br /><br />Made me so sad.<br /><br />Every homeless person has a story. Each one unique and different. I don't believe all are "bad."<br /><br />And I wonder what difference it makes what reason they are standing there when we have the opportunity to help, love, care, sow, give and meet a need....<br /><br />Who are we to judge?<br /><br />I wonder what any one of us would have done in her situation.<br /><br />With no family. No one who could offer help.<br /><br />There are people in this world who do not have family. Or whose families have turned their backs...and they are forced to do life alone.<br /><br />I wonder what any one of us would have done in her situation as a domestic violence victim.<br /><br />When the shelter is a horrible place and there isn't any family to turn to. When you have a life growing inside you and you have to provide.<br /><br />I saw courage in the flesh standing on the corner that day.<br /><br />I saw a woman who refused to lay down and die and decide that her life must be over because it wasn't perfect.<br /><br />I didn't see any bad behavior. <br /><br />I saw a mama who loved her unborn child and who was trying to hold pillar and post together completely solo.<br /><br />Courage doesn't always live in a big house, on the nicest street in the nicest neighborhood with a Harvard degree hanging on the wall.<br /><br />But bad behavior sometimes does.....<br /><br /><br />I pray that you will reach out to someone "different" today. I know that those who are different than we are can sometimes teach us the greatest of lessons in life....<br /><br /><br />Blessings to you....Sibihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14564044378590200281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859334581397580560.post-61931493171734203772011-10-12T03:41:16.387-05:002011-10-12T03:41:16.387-05:00For Tiffany...

I thank you that you are orchestrating every, single thing on her behalf . I thank you that right now you are moving Heaven and Earth to bless her, to answer her, to reveal yourself to her.<br /><br />I ask you Father that you would pour out such an abundance of blessings that there would not be room enough to receive it all in Tiffany's life Lord.<br /><br />I know that you are able.<br /><br />I thank you that you see the end from the beginning. I thank you that you are her provider....Please provide Lord. We call in tremendous financial blessings Lord from the North, the South, the East and the West. We call in supernatural favor Lord for Tiffany and I speak over her life that she is blessed and not cursed. That she is above and not beneath. That she is the head and not the tail. And Lord I thank you early this morning for going out of your way today to pursue this precious daughter. I ask you to demonstrate your love for her today in beautiful and creative ways.<br /><br />I ask you to lift every burden. Remove all heaviness and replace it with Your joy and Your peace. We thank you in advance Lord and give you all glory and honor and praise.....in Jesus' precious name!<br /><br />Bless you sweet friend....Sibihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14564044378590200281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859334581397580560.post-86163895102774255712011-10-12T03:32:29.238-05:002011-10-12T03:32:29.238-05:00Amy in CA~

So many of us walk through things alone. <br /><br />So afraid to share. To trust. To open up our hearts and let someone else know "what corner of life we are on."<br /><br />"J" is brave and courageous. She had no choice but to let everyone see and know....<br /><br />I so admire her for trying , for trusting and for receiving.....Sibihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14564044378590200281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859334581397580560.post-20659615674867175292011-10-10T12:32:09.991-05:002011-10-10T12:32:09.991-05:00This is probably the BEST thing I've ever read...This is probably the BEST thing I've ever read on a blog.

Tears immediately filled my eyes and ran down my face - at work no less! I snuck into an empty office and sobbed - for many reasons - for J, for you and for Him, for all He does! I sobbed because I needed a reminder that He does provide He is out there waiting to bless us all - Lord help me know I am already blessed and that maybe your blessings are hard to see right now - but help me to know the are there!<br /><br />I know you don't know me in at all Sibi (except through my comments) - but I would appreciate a prayer - life is weighing down heavly right now and sometimes i can hardly breath - I keep reminding myself of His mercies and His grace.<br /><br />thank you!<br />xoTiffanyTiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06908504833550812024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2859334581397580560.post-23252113252532190222011-10-07T10:29:55.830-05:002011-10-07T10:29:55.830-05:00Sibi!
