Today I wanted to thank you for the prayers for Maria. Please keep them going. 

I received a communication  on Wednesday afternoon to please pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet for Maria. I said absolutely, what an honor.

I received word that Maria passed this evening Wednesday @5:30 p.m. surrounded by her family. She is with the Lord. Amen.

Maria and my family are related through marriage. As I said in my blog requesting prayers earlier today Maria was a very good person. She was human and had some real struggles. But she was real. She had a large heart that wanted everything to be perfect but her lifes struggles made that difficult. Maria was a mother of two wonderful kids and loved her family.

You know, my mom use to say all the time that we are alway’s toughest on those that we are closest to. We know somewhere inside that we trust that they will take it. That does not mean that it is right to be difficult with those that we love but thats what we do as humans because we are all imperfect from birth. We are called to learn, grow and love here. it is a life long process.

What I find as I am getting older and seeing these situations around me is this, I think some people are so big hearted that they cannot deal with life, its almost too painful. The highs of life give way to the lows of life and that fact can become devestating to them emotionally. When this happens they fall into a depression and other things that they think will help to stop the pain. She had a beautiful family and upbringing with tons of support from her family and church every inch of the way. God had angels in her life daily. As he does in ours. Maria had a great smile and great laugh. We shared some good laughs over the years.

Her struggle in life effected her family the same as our struggles effect our families.

bottom Line,

She was loved by her family and she loved them all too . And, due to the fact that she came from a family of faith, no matter what she lost due to her illness even with her mindset being what it was , she never lost sight of her God. She loved God. And I know, that he loves her too.

I know that when God greeted her that he saw that she was broken like us and that she was his loving child. When he saw her tears he wiped them away. Her heart was yearning for peace and  awaiting an eternity with our Lord and Savior where all pain is gone. Amen.

I am sure that God is well pleased with her beautiful attempt to please him.

English Standard Version

His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’

Please keep Maria’s family in your prayers.   Thank you 🙂

Rest In Peace beautiful Maria. Amen

God Bless You .
