Happy New Year! I pray you and your family have countless blessings in 2025. Also, those signs and things that continually happen to you are to countless to be mere coincidences. Simply amazing that Wesley called you on that day. Sends chills down my spine!

Hello Joan and many blessings to you in 2025. That’s such a wonderful story about Wesley! I had read the post, but when I went back to it, I noticed I had forgotten to ‘like’ it so I immediately tapped the heart just now. I’m glad you are feeling God’s love and presence so strongly. You have definitely kept the faith! I think that between your immense suffering and your unwavering devotion and trust in the Lord, you are assuredly filled with the Holy Spirit.

I’m so sorry that your husband’s friend Willy passed away, but I know he’s with the Lord as we all will be someday. Our true home.

God bless you and yours always!

Happy New Year! God works in miraculous ways, I do believe you are feeling his presence and seeing his signs because you are open to them. Although I haven’t experienced the depth of grief you have losing MO, I lost two close friends in the last 6 months and almost lost another but God worked a miracle for her. I feel these losses have opened me to see signs I never saw before. Love you💕

Oh Jill, I’m really sorry for your losses. I’d love to know what the miracle was for your other friend. I wish I understood the signs more, and exactly what they mean, but I do ask for them and thank Him when I get them. Love you, too!
