I take no offense at the psychic suggestion, nor do I mean any offense when I say that we, as a family, chose not to consult psychic/mediums because of our Christian beliefs. There is scripture that directs us to not place our trust in the "powers" of others, which can be very misleading if not completely fraudulent. With that being said, I do not completely rule out that there are those out w/ God-given "sight". Gene and I both had something happen to us in the days and months before Mom was abducted - for him, what he can only describe as a "vision", and for me a couple months of a very strong feeling that something was going to happen to her. The difficult part is trying to understand why those things happened to us, because they didn't help us to prevent this from happening to her.
I will say this: although we did not seek out psychic help, there were calls from them offering what they saw and I would say that 99% were completely wrong with absolutely no details correct. That just enforced our belief that our trust had to be in God, in all things, in all ways. And that was for the best because who could have ever predicted the twists and turns and coincidences that weren't coincidences in Mom's case. You get to the point where you say, "Ok God, it's a new day and just help me get thru whatever this day brings." Which is what He wants - our complete trust in Him. I've said before, there was the day that came when I said, "This is it God. I will not make it thru this day, I don't understand and I CANNOT handle any more." So, I firmly believe that He sent me the two people I needed most that day to talk me and pray me thru it, and what do you know, I didn't die and I'm still somewhat normal
There are still so many days that I have no drive to do anything but wander around my house doing only the things that HAVE to be done, but I KNOW that this will pass, and we all will go on, because of our faith. GLORY TO GOD, I don't know where we'd be without faith.
God bless all of you, Mima, dsntslp, and ALL of you still checking, still posting, still praying for us. I so very much hope that my Mom is able to see and know every single thing that people have done for us.
