Back in 2020 when I wrote about our friendship, I only used her first initial. She’s so private. However, today I am using her name—Tara. Y’all, Tara is hurting so badly right now. Her only child, Marley, who she has dedicated her entire life to raising, is missing. She’s the air Tara breathes. For years, her life has been centered around Marley, her husband, and God. She would get me for not mentioning God first. Y’all, I love her so much and pray that God brings Marley home unharmed. Please keep her and her family in your prayers.🙏🏽♥️ ~Shaun
Here’s the blog I shared almost four years ago. At that time we had been friends 20 years. I am so grateful for our friendship. We are like night and day, oil and water, but God put us together for a reason. Blessed.
Yesterday I said I would fill you in on what prompted my post, Thankful for God’s Mercy and Grace. Well, without going into too much detail, my sister had to be hospitalized after developing postpartum preeclampsia. By yesterday afternoon, all of her vitals and labs were back to normal and she was able to go back home to her babies. It was a very long and scary week.
Now, I am waking up to news that a friend’s 17 year old daughter is missing. Whew!! I don’t even know how to process this one. This is her only child.
Also, now that I am finally awake and alert, I remember my son waking me up last night saying he had gotten a ticket on his way home from work. I looked to see if I had missed his call, but hadn’t. Y’all, I was exhausted by the time I got home. Once I hit the bed, I was out.
When I tell you I am so grateful he made it home safely. He’s been pulled over before for no real reason. They made him get out the car and everything. Ended up telling him he was stopped because his tag was hanging (it wasn’t). From then on, I told him to let me know when he left work or to call me on his way home. He didn’t do either.
Please keep my friend in your prayers. She’s very reserved and conservative and stays to herself. Her daughter and husband are her life. I can’t even begin to imagine what she’s going through.
Life… It does what it does. Believing God for another miracle. Amen
Here’s an early morning reminder to Smile. Listen, life is always going to do what it does—it’s forever unpredictable. No matter what comes, keep smiling. Know that God will always see you through the good and bad times. Love you.♥️ ~Shaun
