Your post made me think of a quote from Elder Maxwell in one of his last conference talks. <br />(From my memory) He said.." What will we say, brothers and sisters, to the heros and heroines of Martin's Cove and the Sweetwater, that we admire you? But, we are unwilling to wade through our own waters of chilling adversity"<br /><br /> I thought of you because you are so will to just go out into that cold water and do what you have to do right now for your family. How many people truly fall apart when faced with such daunting tasks. You inspire me to live better. I will bring this talk when I come and let you listen to it. I have it on CD, I think it is called In the Arms of His Redeeming Love.<br />Anyway Shelley, your children are so blessed to have you!! God bless you!<br />Love,<br />AmberBritonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11167642806806435610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036707446680278784.post-51058622657204888692009-09-19T00:44:25.627-06:002009-09-19T00:44:25.627-06:00Shell-bell,

I think everyone is. I am blessed that God has brought you back in my life. I love you and please let me know if there is ever anything I can do for you.

(over 100...and many more readers, I'm sure). <br /><br />We all want to be included in your happenings and want you to know how very much we love you. <br /><br /> Just because we aren't right there by you, please know that you are always in our thoughts and prayers, every single day!<br /><br /> It's kinda sad that you have to comfort all of us, but we need you to! :)<br /><br /> Your spiritual power and growth is so exciting to see. I hate that is has to come this "hard" way...but by golly, Shell...I think you're gonna make it. <br /><br />I know as you hang on to the Lord and continue to notice all his tender mercies, you will be made strong. He'll help you carry the burden on your back.<br /><br />Sending loves and hugs, Aunt BarbHilterbrand Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116218673876391562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036707446680278784.post-45502934176770062392009-09-18T14:58:41.453-06:002009-09-18T14:58:41.453-06:00Shelley-

I know how proud Jordan is of you for your strength and determination. My favorite quote is the one when Christ said "I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it." It is such a peaceful feeling to know that we have such a wonderful gospel to fall back on. Shelley I love you and you and your sweet babies are in my thoughts and prayers. <br /> Love- Linsey Lloyd AllenLinsey Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14050385017836350787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036707446680278784.post-55015257567480890822009-09-18T14:11:35.717-06:002009-09-18T14:11:35.717-06:00Shelley,

I continue to pray for you and your family. We look forward to the day when we can see your whole family reunited, but until then, I am definitely going to live worthy to be with God and Jordan again in heaven!

(plus, cricket had room to run so she loved it)!! <br />your strength is inspiring. it encourages me to draw closer to the Lord. it's been hard. I want you to know I still felt Jordan's spirit in the home while I was there the other day. it made me feel warm. (and that wasn't the oven I felt since i had it turned down too low at first...)!! i'm such a blonde! [yes, i want more of it when i come in for my appt]! i'm glad you feel jordan there all around you too. i'm excited to see you again and maybe i'll pick another good book to bring. i like reading to you. i'll even come read to you on a pajama day. just let me know!Apryl Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14912232539865440900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036707446680278784.post-57895097933215862512009-09-18T10:24:18.019-06:002009-09-18T10:24:18.019-06:00Shelley,

They are important things to remember. Take care.

Your words are always so strong and I am so grateful to know you and to be able to hear about how you are doing. <br /><br />Shane and I think of you everyday. Our family prays for you and one day we want to come and see you and let our children play together. Kennedy and Chantel would have so much fun! Kennedy started preschool as well and her experience was the same. She ran in the room, gave everyone a hug and I practically had to force a goodbye out of her. Our children are definitely blessings. <br /><br />Thank you for your words. I will continue to think of you often. <br /><br />Cassie OringdulphFor Time and ALL Eternityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310765374249886640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036707446680278784.post-50402897608225524402009-09-18T09:21:23.234-06:002009-09-18T09:21:23.234-06:00i don't think your comforting words could put ...i don't think your comforting words could put anyone to sleep shell... i miss you so much. i get choked up when we get off the phone that i want so badly to tell you that i am praying for you constantly... i was talking to some ladies here about you and they say... <br /><br />i just don't know how she is doing it... she must be strong... were they sealed in the temple?... <br /><br />how blessed we are for those sacred temple coventants and for the promise that we will see Jordan again. what comfort that gives us. <br /><br />I love this quote from the visiting teaching message this month:<br />Barbara Thompson, second counselor in the Relief Society general presidency: “Sisters, now more than ever, we need women to step up and be strong. We need women who declare the truth with strength, faith, and boldness. We need women to set an example of righteousness. We need women to be ‘anxiously engaged in a good cause.’ We need to live so that our lives bear witness that we love our Heavenly Father and the Savior Jesus Christ and that we will do what They have asked us to do” (“Now Let Us Rejoice,” Liahona and Ensign, Nov. 2008, 116).<br /><br />Shell, you are definately this type of woman the Lord is looking for. Thank you for being my sweet sister.linzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14589617068489903603noreply@blogger.com
