My children and I feel so close to her (8 kids, ages 12 and under!) What a beautiful soul she is and we just know she is praying for us to be holy and get to Heaven!!! :)<br />Thanks for your family being such a great witness of love. Thanks for Teresa being such a little saint! <br />Blessed Mother, pray for us!<br />Mother Teresa, pray for us!<br />St. Padre Pio, pray for us!<br />Holy Family, pray for us!<br /><br />God bless you all. Thankyou.<br />p.s. YES!

I love the phrase "each day here on this earth is one day closer to Teresa (or insert the name you need here)." That is huge and takes away that feeling of us being stuck here (even though I know we are not), it gives hope. This earth is NOT our home, and I am so glad. Your family is continually in my prayers. I can't wait to see what God does. <br /><br />Blessings!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265223968093995596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972085662255248392.post-13444611668907269862013-09-26T12:38:15.553-04:002013-09-26T12:38:15.553-04:00Ann, you amaze and inspire me!

I am so happy to see the work He is leading you to, and so happy to have even a small part in helping in whatever way I can, praying and giving. How I would love to go to China and hold these little ones and pray for them personally -- maybe one day God will provide. Until then.....<br />It is so obvious in your postings how the Lord has led you closer and closer to Him! His will in all of life is to transform us into the image of His dear Son, our Savior! You and Ed are the epitome of God's transformation! How thankful I am to "know" you from afar -- and to know HIM within my heart!<br />God bless you!

Things are so hard to reconcile sometimes. I think about and pray for Teresa and all of you every day.

I loved how you explained God giving us enough to deal with each moment - if we could see the big picture that HE sees, we would be totally overwhelmed. But you are so right, He gives enough strength for each moment at a time.

If you had told me at the beginning of the year that my husband and I, ages 53 and 57, would be looking to adopt another older child, I would have said no way. And even when I felt God calling me right after Teresa died, my husband said no way. So I just gave it up to God, and asked Teresa to whisper in His ear, and he did. And now we will do what God is calling us to do. Bring home another daughter. Your daughter is definitely still working miracles...I'm calling her the patron saint of orphans from now on! <br />Michellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5972085662255248392.post-80809118295066083392013-09-22T15:10:48.335-04:002013-09-22T15:10:48.335-04:00Thank You, Ann.
