By day the Lord directs His love,
At night His song is with me -
A prayer to the God of my life.
Psalm 42:8

Hi Rosanna,

I don't know you at all - I am Adrienne & Carolyn Friesen's sister (& Kristal's cousin). My husband is currently doing construction up in the Invermere area and we heard about the tragic accident that happened. I attend the Bridge Church, and Brian Doerksen shared about your husband's passing. My heart was burdened and heavy for you and I wept. I was amazed at how I could weep for someone that I didn't even know. I pray that you will be encouraged today in knowing that many people (even people that you've never met!) are uplifting you in their prayers. I am praying for you as you walk this journey. Thank you for sharing this journey on your blog. Your words encourage and inspire me to be more - to live fully for Jesus.

Your sister in Christ,
Bonnie Boehr

Lord, wrap your arms around Rosanna today and show her that you love her, show her that you care for her. I pray that our dear Rosanna will feel your presence and your peace and that You, oh Lord, might continue to be her refuge.
I love you Rosanna.

Rosanna,
I don't know if you remember me but I first met you through Wellspring church a long time ago. (I attended Crossroads Community at the time) We also hung out at Camp Squeah together. I then attended Bethany with Doug during his 1st year and was blessed to meet Nate when he came to visit. I heard about your loss through Facebook and wanted to let you know that I am thinking and praying for you and your family daily. May God be your rock through all of this.
Your sister in Christ,
Janelle (Goertzen) Schultz

Rosanna,

I never had the chance to meet you but my husband and I knew Nathan from Trinity Western. We loved him, were deeply impacted by his character and love for the Lord, and our hearts ache with and for you. Thank you for your openess on your blog as you will never know how much your words and struggle are helping others in this grieving process too.

May the words of this song below encourage you as you walk through this painful journey.

When the Tears Fall - Tim Hughes

I've had questions, without answers
I've known sorrow, i have known pain
but theres one thing, that i'll cling to
you are faithful, Jesus your true

when hope is lost, i'll call you saviour
when pain surrounds, i'll call you healer
when silence falls, you'll be the song within my heart

in the lone hour, of my sorrow
through the darkest night of my soul
you surround me, and sustain me
my defender, forever more

I've had questions, without answers
I've known sorrow, i have known pain
but theres one thing, that i'll cling to
you are faithful, Jesus your true

Our prayers are with you,
Josh and Mary Frances King

Hi Rosannita linda. Our visit last week was a gift- you are a gift.
You are a dear, lovely friend.
My prayer for you today has been from Psalm 139
"Jesus, hem Rosanna in from behind and before, lay Your hand upon her. When she feels like the darkness is hiding her from You and her day maybe feels like night, show her that the darkness is full of Your light."
I love you. Can you feel my hug all the way from Mexico?
Joan
