Prayers and Comments

Dear Amy,

I thought it would be nice if I put all the comments together in one place.  I'll try to do this periodically to make it easier for you to read ... plus down the road when we print this blog, they'll also be a much loved part.

Comments and Prayers from today back to the beginning ~    Tanya


Stacey said ... Prayers to you today Amy!

Mona Smith said...  That song has so much meaning and so much truth to it. I have always felt chills everytime I hear the song "If tomorrow never comes" by Garth Brooks and it is a constant reminder to me to do everything in my power to make everyone close to me know just how much I love them and that when my time on earth is through, the love I gave each of them in the past, will be enough to last, until they meet me on the other side. Amy, I pray for you each day and pray for peace in your heart and for Gods healing hand to be on you.


Tink said... I am so glad you are home again with your children. I feel I know you all through Tanya, so many pictures and posts on her site over the years..  I have candles lit and Healing energy's being sent to you..
Brightest Blessings..

Take Care


Hi Amy,
I realize that posting a letter here had to be a very difficult step for you. It sort of makes the whole thing real once it's been typed into words. I hope that you will come to find posting your letters to be a source of comfort. This blog a sort of oasis from the storm.  You have been and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Sabrina said... Praying for you Amy. I know that the road ahead of you is long and uncertain, but we all care. We are thinking of you and your family, and praying for your recovery.


Amy-  I'm so glad you are home with your family and children. I will continue to pray for you all. Stay strong and look to the heavenly father, he will bring you through this.


Amy~~  Prayers continue for you and your beautiful family. Hold fast to your faith. Whatever happens God will not leave you--He will give you strength and peace to carry you through.

There's Hope in Each New Day
When life is filled with challenges
Fight back with heart and soul,
Face each one with confidence
To win your utmost goals.


Anyone can be a winner
When God is on their side,
Just trust His loving providence
For it can turn the tide.


And if it is a MIRACLE
You need to see you through,
You may just find that MIRACLE
Will wing its way to you.


(Catherine Janssen Irwin)
With love and hope from High Point, North Carolina

Sending prayers your way right now...
My husband just started back at work after 6 months of chemotherapy, so we do know what you are going through...
Amy - you've got to think, and really know, that you are going to be ok.
Your family needs you, your children need you...
The world needs you...
I know how weak you feel right now - but the Lord will make you strong. He knows how much you are needed, and how much you are loved. Be well. Get healthy - and know you are in our prayers...

Amy, I'm Elissa's mother, and I just talked with her, and she told me I could reach your blog thru a link on Tanya's site. I didn't read it in time to pray for you at 2 p.m., but I will be praying for you. I remember you from Jared & Elissa's wedding. I'm so sorry you are so sick. I am so glad you have come to know the Lord.

Diana Lopez said...
Hi Amy, she's right, write like you will live forever, because you will live forever, weather it is here on earth or at home with Jesus our Saviour...Always have faith, trust god that what ever happens it happens for a reason. I am sure that God has something big planned for you, Pray always to God to guide you and give you strength for this journey that he has prepared for you. You will always be in my prayers. With much love Diana.


Egghead said...
This is beautiful Tanya. Amy we are praying for strength to get through the days ahead and peace for your heart.


Sabrina said...
Praying for you Amy. I cannot even being to imagine what you are feeling & going through as you begin to write letters to your precious boys. I hope that you are able to tell them everything you want them to know, and more. Let your heart be your guide. Tanya, this is a beautiful letter. I know that you will do your very best to help Amy and your family through this difficult illness and journey. You are all in my prayers and thoughts - daily.


Amy, we're thinking about you as you navigate this difficult journey. Don't feel isolated -- please accept and ask for help anytime it's offered or needed. Keep your chin up and cherish each and every moment with your children. We've never met, but I've read your story on Tanya's page. My best wishes to you and your family. --Laura


Amy, May you feel God's arms around you as you begin your journey. Please know that you are being lifted up in prayer and that we are all pulling for you. I lost my mother at age 13 and there are so many sweet memories from my childhood that wonder in and out of my thoughts just out of the blue and alot of times, those exact thoughts were exactly what I needed to remember during certain obstacles I was going through at the time. What I would have given to have something like this for my mother to have been able to put it all down for me to keep not only in my heart, but where I could go back and hear her voice reading her feelings as I looked upon it. A place where I could go for comfort at times I needed her reassurance in my life. Your boys will always feel your love guiding them through their life. Keep the Faith and keep believing. Mona

Diana Lopez said...

Praying for you from Florida. My prayer is that you have peace from God throughout this process. Your Faith is going to be tested, but just reach out to God, and He will take your hand and lift you up, love you and comfort you. Remember "If God takes you to it, He will see you through it!"


Jill said...
My prayers are with you Amy! I am 26 with two boys that look about the same age as yours--3 and almost one--and I can only imagine how you must feel knowing that you'll be making this journey so far before them! It breaks my heart...but you'll be there with Jesus watching over them, keeping them safe, and you can be sure they will know you when it is their turn to make the same journey! God bless you! I'll be checking in often!


The Cup Is Half-Full said...
