I warn you in advance this is not a post about reselling or thrifting or making money. But it is a post about being a mother who loves your children and wants to see them grow up. It's a post that reminds me why I wanted to sell online in the first place- to spend more time with my children while I can.
A dear friend of mine was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer this week. She is in her mid thirties and has 4 children, ages 7 - one month old. Her husband is a pastor and she is an awesome stay at home mom. We became friends my first year of teaching. She mentored many young teachers and students the years that she was there. She was the one that could cheer you up after a difficult meeting,and was so encouraging to me during those difficult first years of teaching. She is truly a light for Jesus in our community and beyond. We are a community in shock and disbelief right now. The prognosis from the Doctors is not a good one. But I believe God has a plan for her. I believe that God can heal her and I am praying for a miracle for her and for her family. I don't usually ask this, but would you, dear readers, please pray for her also? We are in desperate need of a miraculous healing for her.
