We are not alone

Friday morning was the first time, since the news of Jeremiah, that I felt alone; not the loneliness of despair but rather the feeling of being an individual, alone with his feelings. I thought of the way we were created, as unique individuals, yet also made as a community by Our Father.

Last Friday was the first fast before March 2010 before Jeremiah would be born. Jeremiah's god-father Francois was fasting with me, his act has given me comfort and encouragement. Thoughts of the SMS received, when Sylvia read our letter to the St Jude Music Ministry further gave me strength. Daphne's friends from the Mother's group who is keeping strong with her, bought a deep smile in my heart. There have been many friends walking closely with us. I thank you all for this, it has really shown us The Father's Love for us.

We are his Mystical Body. I comprehended for a moment, that we are created in his likeness and image. And HE is a community, HE is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. HE has given me each of you, to walk my pain and to walk your pain. My Fast is now also for individual alone with their pain. We will walk together for each other.

Thank you to each of you, you are a gift to us.
