Dear Rebekkah Rachel~
I can't even begin to imagine the horror your family must be facing at this time! How awful! When did this hapen, and did you see the guy (or gal) who took her? I hope and pray that Daniella is found safe and unharmed; my heart is breaking as I try to write these words.
I don't understand why people have to be so mean and nasty, particularly to innocent young children! I don't know what I would do if that happened to our family! I would be out of my mind with worry!
It's like that school shooting in Pennsylvania, when that gunman gunned down several young Amish girls. What did they ever do to deserve to be killed in the manner that they were? Not even the small towns are safe anymore, and it is enough to make my stomach sick with worry!
You can bet I will be praying for Daniella's safe return. That is all we can hope for. We told our pastors at church about it, and people have been on their faces and knees ever since, praying for a miracle! It is during times like this when God tests our faith, to see if we can lean on Him in times of trouble, and He is there in the midst of your situation, even as I speak. I know you are Jewish, but you also believe in Salvation, so you won't have any problems reading this.
The world is getting to be a mean, ugly place, and it's as though Satan has his stronghold on America. So many bad things are happening, and people aren't relying on God. This is the key: we need to return back to God, and pray for a mighty miracle for our hurting nation! It has gotten to the point to where I can't even watch the news anymore without worrying about something going on in another part of the world, or if the next calamity will be more than we can bear.
This is one reason why I journal. It helps me sort out my deepest, most hidden, private feelings, and in the end, it helps me feel better inside, and then I am able to make (some) sense of what is going on and why.
Well, I am at school, so I will make this short. I will be praying extra hard for Daniella's safe return, and I pray that God wraps His Everlasting Arms as you face this trial in your life! God bless you during this time of difficulty, and know you are ever in my thoughts and prayers!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tennesssee, Ronee' Le-Anne Reaux. :( >tears!<
P.S.: We still haven't told Johnny about this. We are waiting for the right time, and we have to be there for him when we do tell him! He knows something is up, but not much else.
Exceptional write my dear friend...I agree I can't understand why anyone would want to harm another human being, especially children, and my goodness Amish children! I worked in the flea market business several years ago, my booth was very near an Amish vendor, they were wonderful sweet, very giving and very kind people. We are living in a sick time. Yes, journaling does help one to sort out thoughts and emotions, you are right. I wonder sometimes if the world was as wicked as it is now when God told Noah to build the ark? Scary thought...well, for those that are not ready! Terrific write and very appropriate.
Blessings,

Karen, this one touches the heart deeply. "The world is getting to be a mean, ugly place, and it's as though Satan has his stronghold on America. So many bad things are happening, and people aren't relying on God. This is the key: we need to return back to God, and pray for a mighty miracle for our hurting nation! It has gotten to the point to where I can't even watch the news anymore without worrying about something going on in another part of the world, or if the next calamity will be more than we can bear."
How right you are. Satan and the spirit of anti-christ is at large, not only in America, but throughout the world. Only one person can stop this madness. He is not long in returning. Keep praying...I also add my prayers in the safe return of Daniella. You have penned a strong message here. Well done, Karen.
Karen this is a timely well written exceptional write you have done today! We need more than ever to keep Creator uppermost in our thoughts. To share with others to be more faithful to pray and ask for help to bring our nation into alliance with God again. This culture has long lost its way and only God can bring healing and hope to our world and our lives. Pray like never before! Great writing!
A lot of craziness in the world right now: I firmly believe the reasons behind the horror is (besides Satan and his minions) is because prayer was taken out of school, and discipline out of the homes and school. Sad, tragic events unfolding...a powerful, heartbreaking write. Well done.
A poignant story about letting go of a narcissist in your life. Have you ever been attacked FULL force by a narcissist? It's the closest thing to being stabbed over and over in the back.
Suspenseful and close to home, Rain of Deception 2 will leave you in Tears. Much like Part 1, this will shocking sequel will keep you on the edge of your fingertips.
