Escaped commieny posted on Blessings It was a Blessing today to receive from our main site 'pest' Ramona, the CD'S from Kevin's Memorial Service. I still have a hole in my heart from his passing, but it was a wonderful service. So Thanks Ramona! As Pastor said, Kevin our Cap Marine was bigger than life and gave so much to so many.
Escaped commieny posted on Faith Kailee’s husband Justin paid one last tribute to her (The Last Watch 1/2hr ) which may have been the hardest thing he could possibly do. . He stood by her thru thick and thin , in sickness and in death with such grace. We are so grateful to him. Thank you for your prayers and support for our family.

Surfhut I'm so moved by this post that I can't even write anything coherent.
Escaped commieny posted on Faith I am going to ask for more prayers, the grand daughter of our best friends was taken by cancer, Kailee left us way too early, she was only in her 20's, and D and B need our hugs and prayers.

Surfhut Rest in peace Kailee. May the Lord bring comfort and healing those who grieve.

Escaped commieny I should have included we need prayers for her husband and little baby that will never know her mom. Kailee was a Marine, I will know more at the end of the week.
BirdsNest Very sad, prayers for all those who loved this woman.

Escaped commieny posted on Faith Our Prayer Warriors has been terrific praying for Annie (an L-dot ) and her cancer but I have another request. It is for a non poster but part of my Disabled American Veterans,a'Nam Vet.(He lurks but can no longer view the monitor ) He has a detached retina and with zerocare and medicare part B, had a very difficult time finding treatment. This is a guy that still works and the description of treatment is too gross to print but he had to spend $8000. to fix that eye, and might need another surgery.

Escaped commieny posted on Main Page The Lobby The Gipper "[Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher] demonstrated two great qualities. The first was that she had thought seriously about how to revive the British economy and entered office with a clear set of policies to do so. She brought down inflation by controlling the money supply, and she began removing the controls, subsidies, and regulations that kept business lazy. Her second great quality was the true grit of a true Brit (or perhaps I should say, of a true-blue Brit ). We both realized that our policies wouldn't solve such deep-rooted problems overnight. The first effects, in the world recession of 1981-82, were painful. I remember meeting her in Washington at a time when people in both our countries were calling for a change of course. She never wavered. And she was proved right by events. ... Margaret Thatcher -- this great lady has not only served her country well, she has served the free world well. She is truly a great statesman. So much so that I'll correct what I just said: She is a great stateswoman holding her own among all the statesmen of the world." --Ronald Reagan

ScarletPimpernel Thank you, friend. I hope others will be blessed by the Gettys' rendition of this beautiful song as we remember Kevin. I always cry when I hear it, even more so after reading all the comments from LDotters on how much Kevin meant to them. We are blessed to have such a family online.

ScarletPimpernel If you aren't yet acquainted with the modern hymns of Keith and Kristyn Getty, I can guarantee you'll be blessed and ministered to by them. I heard the Gettys in a Christmas concert at our church in 2011 ("Joy - An Irish Christmas" ). They are the response to the mediocre and shallow "praise" music that has been so popular in many churches now for several years. You can hear many of their hymns on YouTube. Their website is www.gettymusic.com, and you can find their CDs at Amazon.
Here is another beautiful haunting song for Easter, "To See the King of Heaven Fall":
"What took Him to this wretched place, What kept Him on this road? His love for Adam’s curséd race, For every broken soul. No sin too slight to overlook, No crime too great to carry, All mingled in this poisoned cup – And yet He drank it all, The Savior drank it all, The Savior drank it all."
JoniTx Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for the re-post. So very fitting. God Bless.

Timber Queen Thank you for this beautiful hymn and the gentle reminder that in carrying our daily cross, we become Simon of Cyrene and help Our Lord to carry His.
