A BOOK YOU MUST READ: WHY MY CHILD LORD?

XOXOXOXOXO...AMY...XOXOXOXOXO
ALWAYS  IN  OUR  HEARTS






I  HAVE  MET  THE  MOST

BEAUTIFUL  AUTHOR

NAMED  MICHIELLE  SULLIVAN.

SHE  IS  NOT  ONLY  GORGEOUS

ON  THE  OUTSIDE  BUT  SHE  IS

STUNNING  ON  THE  INSIDE.

A  BEAUTIFUL

CHRISTIAN  LADY

WHO  HAS  A  BIG

HOLE  IN  HER  HEART  THAT

HAS  BEEN  GRAFTED  BY  THE

PROMISES  OF  GOD.



SHE  WAS  SO  VERY  GRACIOUS

ANSWERING  MY  EVERY  QUESTION

AS  WE  E MAILED  BACK  AND

FORTH...A  KINDRED  SPIRIT. 

SHE  SENT  ME  A  COPY  OF

HER  BOOK...

FULL  OF 

GOD'S  PROMISES.



HER  BEAUTIFUL  DAUGHTER

IS  NAMED

LEAH.

SHE  WAS  BORN  MAY  19,  1989,

AND  WENT  HOME  TO  HEAVEN

AUGUST  24,  2002.




MICHIELLE  SUFFERED  A  SEVERE

SHOCK  WHEN  SHE  CAME  HOME

AND  FOUND   HER  DAUGHTER.

LEAH

HAD  COMMITTED  SUICIDE.  BELIEVE

ME,  WHEN  SHE  FIRST  SHARED  THE 

STORY,  I  CRIED  AND  CRIED.

SHE  HAD  TAKEN  LEAH  TO  DR.  AFTER

DR.  AND  THEY  ALL  SAID,  IT  WAS

HORMONAL  RELATED  TO  BEING  13

YEARS  OLD.  MICHIELLE  SAID

SHE  KNEW  IN  HER  HEART  LEAH

WAS  DEPRESSED  BUT  SHE  WASN'T

A  DR.




I  KNEW  THAT  IT  WAS  ONLY  THE

GRACE  AND  MERCY  OF  JESUS  THAT

WOULD  ERASE  THE  IMAGES  IN  HER

MIND  AND  HEAL  THE  HOLE  IN  HER

  HEART.




THE  OTHER  THING  THAT  TOUCHED

ME  IS  LEAH  IS  HER  ONLY  DAUGHTER

AND  SHE  HAS  ONLY  ONE  SON,  R.J.,

WHO  ATTENDS  COLLEGE.


MY  ONLY  DAUGHTER  IS  AMY  AND

I  HAVE  ONLY  ONE  SON, RICHIE,

  WHO  IS

MARRIED.  WE  BOTH  PRAY  OVER

OUR  ONLY  CHILD  EVERY  DAY.



WHETHER  OR  NOT  YOU  HAVE  HAD

A  CHILD  THAT  HAS  DIED,  YOU

WILL  BE  BLESSED  BY  MICHIELLE'S

BOOK.




YOU  WILL  DISCOVER  THE  ANSWERS

TO  QUESTIONS:

WHY  DID  GOD  ALLOW  MY  CHILD

TO  DIE?

WHY  DID  MY  PRAYERS  GO

UNANSWERED?

WHERE  HAS  MY  CHILD'S  SPIRIT

GONE?

WHAT  IS  THE  SPECIAL  BLESSING

GOD  GIVES  TO  THOSE  WHO  GRIEVE?

WHAT  IS  HEAVEN  LIKE?

HOW  CAN  I  FACE  THE  YEARS

AHEAD  WITHOUT  MY  CHILD?

HOW  CAN  I  BELIEVE  GOD'S 

PROMISES?

WHAT  DOES  GOD'S  WORD  SAY

ABOUT  SUICIDE  AND  MURDER?


YOU  MAY  EMAIL  MRS.  SULLIVAN

WITH  ANY  QUESTIONS  AND  TO  WHERE

YOU  MAY  PURCHASE  HER  BOOK:



SHE  SAID  YES.....IT  IS  SULLICAN

BECAUSE  SHE  MADE  A  MISTAKE

WHEN  SHE  SET  UP  HER  YAHOO

ACCOUNT.







IT  BRINGS  SUCH  JOY  TO  MY

SPIRIT  TO  ALWAYS  REMEMBER

IN  THE  TRIUMPH  OF  THE

RESURRECTION  OF  JESUS.


MICHIELLE,  GOD  BLESS  YOU

DEAR  ONE.  WHAT  AN  INSPIRATION

YOU  HAVE  BEEN  TO  ME.  GOD

WILL  USE  YOU  TO  TOUCH  MANY

LIVES.

MAY  GOD  BLESS  AND  WATCH  OVER

YOUR  PRECIOUS  TWIN  SISTER,  WHO

HAS  BEEN  SUCH  A  STRENGTH  AND

SUPPORT  TO  YOU.



I  THANK  EACH  ONE  OF  YOU

FOR  STOPPING  BY  TODAY.

PLEASE  SEND  AN  EMAIL  TO

MICHIELLE  AND  SHOW  HER

SOME  CHRISTIAN  LOVE  AND

BUY  HER  BOOK.

YOU  ARE  SPECIAL  AND  DON'T

EVER  FORGET  IT.

HUGS

XO

So many heartaches, without the Lord, who could bear. So many different stories, each needing to be told. I thank you for your ability to speak to the heart from your heart.

Hi Sister, Oklahoma Granny such a dear sweet lady sent me to read about this book. I will email her and try to find the book soon. Love you Mollye

Debby said...

I am so sorry about your daughter. I am glad that this book and this special person can help you. Others can only wonder how hard the pain is, but ones that have experienced it really know. God bless you both.

Donna said...

Debbie, I am going to email her. This is just what I need during this time in my life. We always wonder why our child. Thank you for your sweet comment last week on Amber's one year going to Heaven.
Hugs,
Donna

DEBBIE I AM SO GLAD YOU FOUND HER AND FOUND A KINDRED SPIRIT YOU COULD RELATE TO. HOW HORRIBLE IT IS THAT IT HAS TO BE THIS TOPIC. THAT COULD NOT BE EASY FOR HER EITHER. I DON'T THINK THERE REALLY IS AN ANSWER, BUT I KNOW IT IS A QUESTION YOU WANT AN ANSWER TOO.

LOVE,
SANDIE

Oh, how sad, and how awful that suicide is so common but so hush-hush in our society, I would like to see the Federal Government which is always in our business anyway to give a lot of money from our taxes to fund 24-hour nationwide hotlines. So many of the hotlines are just labors of love and can't answer all the calls they get. I am glad Mrs Sullivan wrote her and her daughter's story, now others can be helped.

Theresa said...

Oh Debbie, I am so sorry for your loss! I looked at the picture of your sweet Amy on your sidebar, she is gorgeous! I know that your heart will never be the same but you will see her again one day!

I will go check out this book, Michielle's book looks like a great book to read and most helpful to those hurting! What strength it must take to make it thru!

Have a blessed day and I am praying for all of you!

HUGS!

Hi Debbie,

Thank you for posting this today.
I have a son, my middle son who has tried to end his life a couple of times and I know that God was there each time preventing it from happening. The first time it happened was quite a few years ago and my youngest son and I had gone to see him in the hospital. We were waiting to see him as the nurse said he was taking a shower. My youngest son had brought some playing cards and was trying to get me to play, as I held the cards in front of me I had a vision..a vision of my son trying to hang himself..I dropped the cards and ran to the nurses desk abd told them to open the door as it was locked...when they opened the door my son was trying to hang himself with a pillowcase tied to a rail...he was revived and has been in and out of therapy for years now.
He is bright, artistic, musical, he can draw, write, he is a wonderful man but this disease is always lurking there. I pray everyday for him. Please pray for my son Eddie.
Thank you again Debbie for telling us about this book
I am so sorry for your loss but there is a wonderful merciful God and he loves all of us beyond belief.

God Bless you and your family,

Susan

Think how understanding God is about our real needs. Perhaps the two of you were suppose to cross paths. Every comfort you can give each other only multiplies when you share it with someone else, and on, and on, growing compassion and empathy.

Bernie said...

Hi Debbie I am so glad you found comfort in your friend's words. I read many books with similar content when my son passed, they really helped. Debbie I noticed others are using capitals when commenting, does it make it easier for you to read. I will do this if you want.....:-)Hugs

Cindy Adkins said...

Hi Debbie,
I am so grateful that you visited my blog and you're welcome to post whatever you are moved to share...
This sounds like a very poignant book and it is, indeed, so sad but also necessary so parents can find comfort...I know that you could relate to her from the depths of your heart...

Thank you for sharing this...
Hugs,
Cindy

Hi Debbie,
Oh, let me tell you how to save the button!
Right click on the button (picture) itself and save it on your desktop.
Then, on your blog, go to "add a gadget"--click it
Then, you'll see that you can add a "Picture."
Add it as a picture and it will say http:
and you can put the code for my blog in it....
that way, if people click your button, they will reach the challenge so they can read about it.

Hugs,
Cindy

Cindy Adkins said...

Hi Deb,
I tried it too...I grabbed it off my one blog (I just took the code only that's in that box) and put it on my inspirational blog. Then, I clicked it there and it took me right to Whimsical Musings, so it worked! Yeah!!!
I'm glad you had luck getting it posted!
Hugs,
Cindy

Ya just never know unless you've walked in those shoes how difficult it is. The book sounds amazing!

God bless and have a fantastically blessed weekend!!!

Scrapping With Sherry said...

What a story! Really touched my heart. I am so glad that i clicked on this blog instead of your crafting blog to reply to a question you left at my blog. Not that I do not love your other one, but it is such a inspiration for me to visit sites such as this one...

You asked about tags and ATC's. You are basically right. The only difference in the two is the size. ATC's and Tags can both be for collecting however ATC's are more known for that. They are both used as artwork and used on other artwork. ATC's are the size of the modern day baseball card and tags can be any size you wish. Tags are usually only decorated on one side however I have seen them decorated on both... very seldom! The same with ATC's!

If you have any more questions please feel free to ask and I hope that you will be able to visit me again soon.

Thanks Again~ Sherry F.

Debbie, so happy we "met" even though the circumstances that brought us together are tragic.
You are an inspiration to me and so many others. I hope you have a blessed week. We'll be in touch.
