I just wanted to update you all since you’ve been praying for my mom.
Molly N. beloved wife, mother, and friend is now resting in the arms of her Lord and Savior where there is no more sorrow or pain. She died peacefully tonight in a deep sleep without any pain and was surrounded by her family and close friends. Mom was an extremely strong fighter and was a true blessing to so many people…
Thank you so very much for your prayers and concern for our family. Our family will always treasure your love and support during this time. Also, I’ll be taking a little blogging break for awhile, but I will be back as soon as possible.
Resting In Him,
Emily







I am so very sorry, Emily! We will continue to keep your family in our prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

ReplyDelete"It is not death to die
To leave this weary road
And join the saints who dwell on high
Who’ve found their home with God
It is not death to close
The eyes long dimmed by tears
And wake in joy before Your throne
Delivered from our fears
O Jesus, conquering the grave
Your precious blood has power to save
Those who trust in You
Will in Your mercy find
That it is not death to die
It is not death to fling
Aside this earthly dust
And rise with strong and noble wing
To live among the just
It is not death to hear
The key unlock the door
That sets us free from mortal years
To praise You evermore"
Emily my heart is breaking for you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Lean on him through these dark days.
ReplyDeleteOh Emily I am so sorry. I will definitely keep you and your family in my prayers as you are going thought this tough time. Keep trusting in him and what a lovely thought it is to know that your dear Mum is safe in the arms of Jesus where there is no more tears nor death nor pain.

Jesus, All of us in the blogging world come before you now asking you to be with Emily and Katie, Andrew and their father. Help them to feel your arms around them as you whisper, "I'm here, my child." Be their strength, their mighty fortress and their guide. Help them to know that even when the path is dark, You mean everything for good and that someday they will see their mommy again and they will be able to run into her arms. In your mighty name, Lord. Amen
I'll keep praying for you, dear. Please don't feel any pressure to jump back into blogging. Take as long as you need. We understand.

ReplyDeleteMy heart is with you, though I know not exactly what you are feeling right now. Know that you are being lifted up by hundreds of people who are praying for you...I know your mommy is smiling, sickness and tears gone forever, with the One who wipes away all pain. I cannot wait to meet her when I get to Heaven...just getting to know her sweet daughter has shown me a part of the loving woman and mother she was. I grieve for you, Em, and rejoice at the thought that your dearest mother is at last in His embrace.
{hugs},

P.S. (Em Dear, I just clicked on the link to your Mom's blog. As I was scrolling through it, my eyes filling with tears because I know the hand that typed these words is no longer here, her playlist began to play.
ReplyDeleteI was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.
..."I Will Praise You in This Storm," by Casting Crowns.
I was amazed by God, who spoke to me through these words as I was grieving for you. I love you, dear. <33

ReplyDeleteMy heart aches for you! I will pray fervently for your family. I am so thankful though, that you have the assurance that your mom is in a much better place. You are such a sweet girl, and it hurts me to know that you have to go through this.

Hello Emily dear,
ReplyDeleteI heard about your mom's passing from my mom, who knew her from a forum they both participated in. I know this must be a very hard time for you, full of tears and instability, but you know what? You will get to see her again. She'll be lingering on the edge of Heaven when you get there, just itching to get you into her arms! Although this tragedy may seem unbearably hard right now, we can all have faith that God is going to swarm your brokenness, honor your precious prayers, and bring you closer to Him. Your mother already has touched lives; I was so inspired to hear of her sweet pleas for prayer on that forum during her illness, never asking for herself but always for her family, and can see that same trend in your own blogposts. What a beautiful example she has left for us to emulate! Your faith does her, and God, credit.
I'll be praying; don't lose hope.
-Lindsey
Oh, Emily I am so filled with grief for you.
ReplyDeleteI only know you through your blog, but I feel for you as a personal friend.
Jesus has His everlasting arms underneath you. He loves you so very much.
I don't even know what to say.
I'll leave you with a verse that has comforted my heart many times:
"You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from its farthest regions, and said to you, 'You are My servant, I have chosen you and have not cast you away:
Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
Isaiah 41:9-10
I will be praying for you.
~Olivia
I am so sorry, Emily. I'll be praying for you and your family. God has everything under control.
ReplyDeleteOh Emily, I am so terribly sorry. I will be keeping you and your family in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteDear Emily,
ReplyDeleteNumbers 6:24-26~ "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."
Psalm 121:1-2 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth."
...
Emily, I am praying for you and may you rest in our loving Savior's arms during this painful time. I'm sure you miss your mother terribly...I can't even imagine what it would be like. May the Lord bless you as you press onward and keep resting in our loving Savior's arms. I was so saddened to hear about this-keep trusting in our Heavenly Father, dear sister in Christ.
Love in Christ Jesus,
Elizabeth
Emily, I am very sorry to hear about your mother. You and your family are most certainly in my thoughts and prayers. Jesus is right there with you guys and He will not leave you to grieve. He will be with you all the whole time, dearie!
ReplyDeletePraying, praying, praying!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. Praying for your family. It may not feel like it now, but everything'll be okay.
ReplyDeleteOh, Emily!! I'm doing all I can to not cry right now...I'm praying for you, and your family.
ReplyDeleteOh Emily, I am so sorry. I can't even begin to understand how you must be feeling. Those who haven't lived it, will struggle to understand it. But please know, you are in my thoughts and prayers. He will lift you in this time... I know it.
ReplyDeleteEmily dear, I know what your mom must have been to you and I can't imagine what you must be feeling right now. Praise the Lord that your mom knew Him and is now in a place, so glorious we can only dream about it, worshiping in Him for all eternity. The Lord is faithful and will never let you go during this time, just lean on Him and He will comfort and direct you. You have been such a delight and blessing to me and I can't imagine the pleasure that the Lord must have in you. Remember that there is not a day that will pass where I won't be praying and thinking of you. There are many people you have blessed and will be praying for you now. My heart breaks for you and also rejoices in the Lord for His blessing of eternal life and the assurance we have that your mom is in His arms now. The perfect words at a time like this just never seem to come, but His Words are always perfect and will be a strong rock for you to stand upon, for it is in them that you must abide and trust and lean upon.
ReplyDeleteLove and prayers, Hannah Shields
Oh Emily, I'm so sorry.
ReplyDeleteEmily,
ReplyDelete'When we are weak then we are strong'. Those words float aound in my head when I'm going through tough times. When we're weak, then we'll learn how to be warriors of God. We can learn how to fight off these hard things. We can boldy tell others our faith because we have the blessings of eternal life -- we have the blessing of being with Jesus!
I'm praying for you. I really am. And many, many, many more are praying for you and your family, too.
Love you!
Acacia
