I have been overwhelmed the past few days with the outpouring of kindness from you all. The prayers and gifts of so many has truly touched my heart. Through these blogs we have made connections and friendships that will endure for the long run. I am blessed to be a part of an online community who has shown that even across hundreds and hundreds of miles they can and do reach out and make a difference in a "virtual" strangers life. I know how hard times are right now for so many folks these days. It has restored my faith and makes my heart swell to know that there are still so many good people in this world. I cannot thank you enough. I'd like to thank my dear friend kymber for everything she has done. She showed me that friendships reach out beyond distances and touch your very heart. I love ya gurl! OK I'm starting to feel real sappy now so I best snap out of it!! LOL And I'd also like to thank North from over at the Gun Blog Blacklist for putting kymber's post up and my friend Stephen and George for linking over here as well. Ya'll All ROCK!
We are trying to figure out exactly what to do right now and there are some plans in the works for dealing with the transportation problem. I'll tell you what I can in a few days. Before I say too much though, I need to check with someone and see just how much I can share. Never let it be said that there are not good people in this community of ours or that prayers are not answered.
Prayers are always answered. Though in God's time, not ours :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy that things are on an upward path for you. The majority of our international fellow (wo)man have good hearts, and, when we can help, we always will in whatever way we can.
Yes, our thanks to kymber - for letting us know that help was need, and how we could do so.
Dani, I think that's what many of us struggle with. Things ALWAYS work in God's time, not ours.

I grew up 15 miles out of town without a car and it certainly is not easy! Last year our car died beyond repair and me and hubby had to bike to town almost daily the5-7 miles one way in.
ReplyDeleteNope not easy when you do not know anyone! My thoughts are with you!
You know exactly where we found ourselves then from first hand experience. One thing I've noticed is that my being an acknowledged prepper has come in handy. I'm not needing to make trips to town! Thanks for stopping by and for the positive thoughts.
Deleteoh Sci - things really are going to work out because of all of the caring people still left in this world! we always talk about our online community, our online "friends" and yet we have never been pushed to the test until now. i was certain that some of our friends would definitely help - but, like you, i am blown away by the love and support! i would like to take this opportunity to say thanks to all of our friends who, when they were called upon, jumped at the chance to help. it's little acts of kindness that improve not only our own souls, but make the world a better place to be. i am proud of our online friends. very, very proud!
ReplyDeletelove you Sci! and this problem is fixable!!! you guys will be fine and dandy in no time!
and thank you Dani - it really is something to have a friend who lives halfway around the world and answered our call to prayer!
You know you have spent too much time on Facebook when you start looking for the "Like" button for comments!!! LOL!!! You, as usual hit it right on target.
DeleteI am glad to see things moving for the better.
ReplyDeleteMDR - you are the best buddy! you know that i think the world of you!
DeleteMDR Can't anyone say you don't have one heck of a way with modesty! And again, I'll second what she said. hehehe
DeleteLOL, even though we have never met, you know how much y'all mean to me.
Deletewe'll meet buddy! you just wait and see! first we gotta get you that passport tho - bahahahah!
DeleteIt is a simple matter, of a simple movement I like to call it...."pay it forward". When times are better for ya, we all know you too shall do the same and "pay it forward"
ReplyDeletei couldn't agree more. oh and trust me - Sci and Mars will definitely pay it forward - they are that kind of people!
DeletePaying it forward is most certainly the best way to make a mark in this world. Of course that's just my opinion.
DeleteKeeping you and Mars in our prayers, everything will change for the good in a positive way. God Bless!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandy. Prayers are some of the most needed things there are. I DO have to keep reminding myself that there is a plan "bigger than me" in all this. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteRemember to post pics of the replacement vehicle!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that things are working out for you. :-) Will keep praying that this will all be behind you soon!
ReplyDeleteWaking up on the right side of the grass is always a sign of better things ahead!
ReplyDeleteWishing nothing but the best of thoughts for you, my friend!
mmasse - i feel exactly the same way! and ya - i have always known that MDR was a great guy! but he has made it to my personal heroe list as well!
