Oh my goodness Lindsey. I am so sorry to hear this sad news. Please know that we are lifting up Kali's family, Leah, and you guys in mighty prayer!!
Lord, rain down upon EVERY PERSON that was a part of Kali's life. There is hurt and pain Father, and they need you so desperately right now. Be their peace and comfort!
LINDSEY AND LEAH. I AM SO SO SO SO SORRY. I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW U FEEL RIGHT NOW. SHE IS IN A BETTER PLACE THEN WE COULD EVER BE IN. I AM SO SORRY. ALL MY LOVE ALWAYS
I am so very sorry Lindsey! I pray that you, Leah and Kali's family are able to find peace and comfort at this time and know that there are so many of us praying for all of you. Lee Anen
You guys have had so much heartache- you're in my prayers. Hope your plans to come to Antiga are coming together. Let me know if I can do anything from here to help out.
I am praying for Leah and Kali's family and other friends. Although this is a sad time for those who knew Kali I believe that God had His arms outstretched to welcome her into His presence. I Love you guys and please let me know if there is anything I can do!!!
Jesus, give comfort right now, and peace that goes beyond understanding to broken hearts. Bring your unfailing love and presence to be with those that are in such deep pain. Be their sanctuary and hiding place right now. We know you tell us in your Word that you are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18) Jesus, you know what it is to be acquainted with grief, and you were a man of sorrow. Draw us close to you, that we may have more of you. We need you Jesus.
Our prayers and love are with you...anything you need do not hesitate to ask. Love, Amy
I am So sorry. Our prayers are with you, your sister and Kali's family.
I feel for your sister. I lost my best friend in a car accident also. You just don't expect it when you are so young. Just remember she is better now, we hurt but she is in paradise.
So so very sorry for your loss and for the roller coaster ride that you have all been on. I was hoping for the miracle, but may you all find comfort knowing that she is now with Jesus and she is no longer suffering. You will continue to be in my prayers.
OH heavenly Father, we know you scooped sweet Kali in to your arms before she even entered your kingdom, but those here on earth are hurting. Please grant them your "peace that is beyond understanding", surround them with your love, may they feel your presence and your ever faithfulness. Lindsey, its been a hard month for you, God will use all of this in ways you can never imagine for good. Hugs, Susie
I found your blog through another one that I read daily and I've read through your posts. I just want to say that I'm praying very much right now for your family and your sister and for your little girl in Guatemala.
lindsey & leah- i can't really find words right now, but i feel like i'm with you guys in this. one of my best friends died in a car accident our senior yr. of high school, so i can say that i understand the depth of grief but joy at the same time. this was the girl that led me to the Lord. i can't wait to see her again, just like i know you can't wait to see kali again. thank God He conquered death. He will get you through this, one day at a time. i promise.
I am so sorry. My heart just aches for the family and all of Kali's friends. It is hard to not question...why did God seem to bring her back and then take her again? Only He knows. I do trust in Him with ALL my heart and lean not on MY own understanding. In this case, I cannot lean on my own understanding because I just cannot comprehend. But I do know that God is right there and knows the pain and sorrow. May He bring comfort and peace to Kali's friends and family.
I had to come back to this because I didn't know what to say. For the first time and was at a loss for words.
I am very sorry for your loss. I have been praying for everyone touched by this tragedy, and I will continue to do so. I pray God brings you peace and comfort.
Your family has really been through the fire lately. I know that it is through fire that we are refined to be more like Christ but it does not make it any easier. Looking back it was through those fires that Christ revealed himself to me in a way I had never seen Him before. I pray that you and your family will find comfort and peace knowing that God wants to reveal himself to you during this difficult time. He is holding tightly to each of you and will not let go. May you rest in His loving arms that are always ready to receive you.
I am heartbroken for your sister. I cannot imagine losing my best friend so suddenly. However, I am REJOICING to The Lord for Kali. How amazing that she is sitting up there with JESUS right now! She absolutely could NOT be in a better place. I am happy that she is 100% joyful at this moment, but for those she left behind, my heart and prayers go out.
Thank you for sharing your heart so often on your blog. It is inspiring and uplifting. And such an encouragement :)
We have only been married 6 years, but this one thing we know...we want our lives to make a difference for the Kingdom of God in the country of Guatemala. We love so many of this country's precious children, and by the grace of God we were given the incredible gift of adopting one of them! Her name is Eliana Hope Wheeler...and this is her story (along with our journey on the long road called adoption)! The story doesn't end here....God is calling us to more. Thank you for joining with us....for praying for us....and for loving these kids!! We are so grateful for each of you.
