Praise God for His mercy! Cassie and John are remembered in daily prayer, and both were lifted up yesterday in prayer before our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Amen.
 
It has been awhile since I have been on the forum. Harvest is in full swing here and God has blessed the farmers with a bountiful crop and has also kept me very busy.

Thank you my brothers and sisters for your continued prayers, they mean so much to me.

John has found work, but is not happy where he is at. He is coming home in the next few days before taking off again for another job. I have been praying that he gets a job closer to home, we shall see.

I have been having ups and downs with John leaving, sometimes crying myself to sleep wondering why I keep doing this, but somewhere between the night and when I wake up, I’ve forgotten my doubt and continue to keep going. John and I have come a long way since my first post over 2 years ago. I know that I have doubted God a few times, but He has always won. I know that John struggles with his bipolar and is still trying to find the right dosage of medication, but he is trying and has acknowledged his illness which is a big step. I ask that you continue to keep John in your prayers because I know that he is a good man and a good father.

My mom is doing well, but misses my dad from time to time. Even though I do not live close to her, she has most of her grandkids within a few miles of her, which keeps her in good spirits.

I pray that this finds all of you in good health and spirits. May God bless all!

Cassie
Oh, Cassie, thank you for the update! I was at the beatification Mass in Birmingham for Bl. John Henry Newman and remembered your intentions. (It was wonderful to see our Holy Father!)

Glad to hear that the harvest is going so well! I’m sure it’s particularly welcome in a time of general economic uncertainty. Good that your mom is well too and pretty close to her grandchildren distancewise. When remembering your father (whom I still include in my prayers for the faithful departed when I remember), maybe she (and your and the rest of her family) can take some consolation from the saying, “Those who die in God’s Grace go no further from us than God, and God is very near.”

I hope that John’s job search is successful and that it’s close to your hometown. Whatever God wills.

Continued prayers for your intentions. God bless! :hug1:

Love,
Siobhán.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Thank you my friends for your continued prayers!

I come here today worried and very concerned for John. He called me last night crying and in a deep depression, he wanted to end it all. I kept telling him that he is loved by many and that he should get himself some help right away. He hung up on me once and kept telling me that I would be better off without him, I told him no and that God loves him. He had just started some new medication and one of the side effects is increased depression, I told him to call his doctor because I think that is what is triggering it. I did get him calmed down and promising me that he would not do anything to himself. It is very early in the morning and I know that he is not up yet so I am praying very hard that he is okay. I did not sleep very well because I am worried. Please keep John in your prayers!
 
Found the new thread! 🙂

I’m so glad that your niece is getting better - may Our Lady continue to protect her, her family and loved ones.

Dull weather sometimes brings my mood down as well (though I know, of course, that the underlying reason for your sadness is more important). I think you’re doing all the right things in terms of bringing it to God, particularly when you feel so sad. I tend to take consolation in the words of Blssd. Cardinal John Henry Newman:

Therefore, I will trust Him, whatever I am, I can never be thrown away.
If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him,
In perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him.
If I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him.
He does nothing in vain.

He knows what He is about.
He may take away my friends.
He may throw me among strangers.
He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me.
Still,
He knows what He is about.

Continuing to pray for you and John, and for all your intentions! :console:

God bless. :gopray:
Lord, hear our prayer.
 
Cassie, it is no sin to ask for prayer if you need it! You and John are not two persons, but one flesh through the Sacrament of Marriage. And so, I continue to lift the two of you, made one, up in prayer.
 
Thank you for your prayers, I know God is listening!

I finally got a hold of John this morning, he was heading to the ER. He later found out that his thyroid level is really low and that he should stop taking the medication that he started on Monday. He also went to see a therapist, which helped. He is in better spirits, but would like me to come and see him soon, which I will do. He is also looking to come home, he misses the family too much. Again, thank you for your prayers, I know that God is at work. May God Bless You!

Our Father, which art in Heaven
Hollowed by thy name

And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us

Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil

Amen

Blessed art thou amongst women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus

Holy Mary, Mother of God

Glory be to The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be
World without end

Amen
