Re:  Compassion.........

Karen my heart breaks for you,  and so many others.  And indeed as Ellen
said - your prayers are not in vain !!    Our Lord loves you and your
family SO very much,  and having been through lots of family pain I know
that's difficult to understand fully right now.  But please KNOW that there
is not anything going on in your life right now that our King and Master is
not aware of and He has FULL INTENTIONS of making a Vessel of Gold out of
it - out of you and out of your family.  HE will take what looks like such
a mess and HE WILL bring Goodness out of it.  HE is the REPAIRER of all
broken-ness.  Hang in there PRECIOUS ONE......

Our Holy Lord, please take Karen, her children, the broken home, and hold
them close to your breast Dear Lord,  open their hearts and minds to
receive the Fullness of Your Love,  and show them all somehow Lord,  a
glimpse of the goodness to come out of all of this,  as YOU the Master
Potter,  re-shape, re-mold and bring to such Beauty and Newness these
Precious lives.  We Love you Lord God and we Thank You So Much for all that
You are about to do.

Karen,  We All Love You and Your Family Very Much
