"I have loved you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with loving-kindness."
Jeremiah 31:3

Your love will find me. - Brian Doerksen


Heading to Saskatchewan this weekend for my Grandpa Loewen's funeral. Choosing to trust in the promise that God is love and that His love will find me.

Hi Rosanna,

We don't know eachother, but one of my closest friends (Rosie Scott) was friends with Nathan, and she was with me when she got the call the day of the accident. Since that day, I have been so moved and heart-broken for you. I can't remember the last time I felt so burdened to pray for a complete stranger, but I believe that the Lord has called me to do so. Even though we've never met, I think you are one of the most faithful and sincere women I know of. Your postings have humbled and inspired me, and I would be blessed to ever meet you in person. I often pray that the Lord would give you peace, and that your cup would overflow with His richest blessings. Keep pressing on, sister in Christ.

Your Friend,
Margot

Rosanna, you don't know me but we are good friends of Erik and Jaimie's. I've been debating whether or not to write for awhile but I have found a song that has helped me and when I listen to it I also think of you. My husband, Craig and I are going through our own grief right now and while it is very different than yours, this song has helped me through dark days. It's called Beauty from Pain by Superchick. I tried to find a website that would have a clip of it for you but if you are interested I'm sure you can track it down yourself. Hope it brings comfort. Jennifer Glen

I've been crying and praying for you often ever since we recieved that terrible email from your mom to all the MB pastors.

May Jesus meet you in specific ways as you experience the many facets of grieving Nate.

"When my soul has cried it's tears
And my heart begins to faint
Will You draw near
Will You meet with me

When my days are filled with longing
And my spirit groans and waits
Will You draw near
Will You meet with me

I'm calling and waiting
Your presence Lord is life to me"
(Breathe on Me Now - Kathryn Scott)
