A friend of mine, J, found out Saturday that she is pregnant. Over the past 2 years, she has miscarried twice (2nd time with twins). These miscarriages have been absolutely devastating for her and her husband. Yesterday, she was afraid that she had again, but today at the doctor has found out that there is a heartbeat! They suspect that yesterday may have been the loss of a potential twin; but there is definitely a little fighter in there. PLEASE pray that God's will be done, and if at all possible, this pregnancy is a success!

Praying that our Shibboleth Family is warm and safe in this nasty weather mix we are having. The prediction changes by the hour so everyone north and south pay attention and please be safe!
Please pray for our family and that we make the right decisions to follow God's will. We adopted a grand daughter as an infant. She turned 5 this month. It's been a great struggle as she was recently diagnosed with Autism spectrum disorder with aggression and adhd. We've struggled with the aggression for years before she was diagnosed. Meds are helping. Her birth mother, my oldest daughter, is pregnant again, due March 31st. We have been talking to couples about adoption, but are struggling with wanting to keep our grandchild and keep the siblings together. Money is the biggest issue and causing my husband to be resentful towards the situation, but not the baby. Please pray that we make the right decision, if we keep her that financial resources will abound, and for my husband's heart. He's just tired of fighting, working so hard to have so little. Also since our parents are older now, we lack babysitting support just to get out and have that couple time every marriage needs. Please pray for resources to come about for this need. Pray God will give us the wisdom to discern His will, not ours. Thank you!
Praying for blessings and provision.
Oh yeah, for Couple time, there are several resources available for 'Respite'
My son was diagnosed with Autism (on the severe end of the spectrum) at the age of 3 and I know the struggles. I was a single mom for the longest. He is now 11 years old, has learned to better manage his behavior and talkative. We still have some behavior issues but not even close to what they used to be. I'm available on Facebook as well, just know that you are not alone.
Not sure if you want anyone to know who you are or stay anonymous, but I have a daughter with special needs and would like to help you try to access some resources that you may not be aware of. There are a few options out there but every little bit helps. You can send me a private message on Facebook if you wish or email me at angela.cooper@myshibboleth.com

My friend Becky is basically being attacked from all sides. 2 weeks ago, her daughter decided to move in with her dad (Becky's ex husband) and said a lot of hurtful and untrue things to/about her. Her husband lost his job. A person from a car accident 2 years ago has decided to sue for "pain and suffering", so that's a hassle. AND...her husband got a call today that his daughter (Becky's step daughter) has lymphoma. They are just not entirely sure how much more they can take. All prayers would be greatly appreciated!
Praying for this family.

Please pray for me, I went to the Dr. today and he said I have both the flu and pneumonia, back to the Dr. Tomorrow for more injections, I had two today then back again Friday for more x ray's to see if the pneumonia is better, if not I will be put in the hospital. It's hard to follow the program with this going on.
I pray you have a speedy recovery!
This sounds silly, but I've always had issues with my weight. I've dieted had an eating disorder been diagnosed with depression etc. and I thought this plan would be great for me! I keep messing up and every time I do it feels like I've already lost and/or failed. Pray for me to have strength to succeed!!
You are not alone. So long as we learn from our mistakes they are worth making. There is no failure, only feedback. You get feedback about what does not work so you know not to do that again or to try something different next time. It takes time to learn this program because you are getting a real education in nutrition. Be patient with yourself and keep doing the "right" thing more often than you do the "wrong" thing. So long as you are making progress, however small, you are closer to your goal than you will be if you choose to stop doing the program due to fear of failure. You are worth the time, effort, and dedication it takes to live this lifestyle. Please do not give up on yourself and your success.
Thank you all for the kind words! I need this kind of support if I am going to be truly successful and you all have been wonderful! I'm blessed to have such kind people looking out for me.
Don't call it "silly". Who we perceive ourselves to be is what we will become. I too suffer from depression. What is so great about Shibboleth is the fact it is forgiving, just like our heavenly Father. We mess up, we say, "I'm sorry" and turn from our mistakes and with God's help seek to do better the next day. Don't judge what is in the past. Leave it there. Everyday is a new slate. Write on it. If you are a self-sabotager (like I have been) then maybe call for a MayDay and ask for help. Travis and his team are truly concerned for each of us. They want to see us succeed. I have almost 150 pounds to lose one bite at a time. Remove temptations from the house, look at your triggers, evaluate what you could do differently to help you alone. I can't be close to the kitchen at night. I have had to declare more days holidays at about 11 PM at night. You can do this. We are praying for you.
Thank you for the support!!
Praying for this family!
