A Request from Becky


This is Lallee of Lallee's Cottage. Becky asked me to write this post on her behalf.

I write with great sorrow to tell you that Becky and her husband lost their oldest son Jordan today. Please keep Becky, her husband, and her younger son in your prayers as they go through the next days together. I know each of you have great fondness for Becky as I do and will love her well through this. May God comfort them and bring them sure peace in the midst of their deep loss.

Becky will be taking some time off from blogging. She will complete her give-away at a later time. I know none of you are concerned one bit about that part.

"May your unfailing love be my comfort,
according to your promise to your servant."
Psalm 199:76

We love you, Becky!

    Oh Becky, I just saw this pop up on my google reader while popping in for a break from rushing about doing things, and I just couldn't believe what I saw. This makes all those silly mundane things I was worried about 5 minutes ago mean absolutely nothing. I am so sorry for you and your family, this is such sad news, I can't begin to imagine what you are going through right now. We're all here to help if there's anything we can do for you. My deepest sympathy, and sending you hugs across the oceans,

    Matthew 5:4
    4Blessed are those who mourn,
    for they will be comforted.

    OH, Mighty God, I pray that you be with this family today, tomarrow and years to come Lord! Hold them tight Lord as you comfort them.
    I pray Lord that you comfort them from this day and always.
    It's in your name oh Lord,
    Amen,

There are no words...that can express the loss that you are feeling, but please know that your Jordan has been tucked under an angel's wing for safe keeping. Please also know that you are not alone. My thoughts are prayers are with you at this time of great sorrow.

    Praying you feel our hearts keeping you and your family close...constantly praying God's peace for each of you. With most sincere and deep sympathy for your loss. May HIS WORD give you comfort....

    Psalm 40:1-2 "May 'they' wait patiently for the Lord to help 'them', and he 'will turn' to 'them' and hear 'their' cry.
    He 'will' lift 'them' out of the pit of despair,out of the mud and the mire. He 'will' set 'their' feet on solid ground and steady 'them' as they walk along."

    I just found your beautiful blog this past week and now am so saddened to read about your precious son. We lost my daughter's adorable boyfriend 4 years ago in March, so I know the heartache of losing a child. There are no words to comfort you, other than to say that God has his arms wrapped around you and your family at this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

We have just recently lost our young son-in-law who leaves our daughter and three small children behind. Of course there are no words to express the depth of grief you feel.

    I will send out the nugget I found:
    God will let you laugh again; you'll raise the roof with shouts of joy. (Job 8:21).

    This means we will heal. May God fill your life with abundance and the richness of the memories a relationship so special that only a mother has with a son.

    Becky and family,

    I came over from Kathy's cottage. I want to add my deepest sympathy and prayers to those offered by so many others. May God give you His comfort as you walk this difficult path.
