Little girl....not so little anymore

This is the youngest girl in my family. She is my baby girl. The reason I decided on this picture for my blog is because yesterday I heard some disturbing news about a young man just as young as her.
First of all let me say hello to everyone .Hope you had a good day and filled with love.. Hopefully you had your conversation with the lord and your conscious is free.
Back to the reason for my blog today. As I show you a picture of my youngest daughter , I had to take a moment to pray and be greatful to my heavenly father fir the blessings that I have received. You see I am the type of mother that does not know how to say good job, good choice, a job well done. I feel like this just gives them a big head and they will feel like that is all they need to do. I do not want them to settle for anything. I want them to be achievers.
I found out today that a gentleman that I went to church with ,committed suicide in his front yard. Now let me explain the connection. You see we use to attend this gentleman's fathers church. His dad was the pastor to the old church we use to attend. It is so hard to even think that your child did not feel worth anything. A lot of times kids just don't get it, but we do need to let them know that we do appreciate them even if we do not agree with all their actions and choices. We have to ask god to guide them and trust that the lord is doing just that. I do not know why he did what he did but as a mother I could just imagine what his mom feels like. Been a christian family being taught that suicide is a sin, how do you cope with knowning the inevitable......

Please pray for this family and their strength to remain faithful to the lord and may they find comfort in the holy ghost........

I just found your blog through BlogFrog. I am so sorry for this dear family. My husband is a Pastor and I know from raising our children that the pressures on them can be very difficult, and much of it is not from their parents. I am praying for this family.

I enjoyed reading some of your other posts and look forward to visiting again. Deb
