Got a letter from his xwife that he would like to get in touch with us. We have spent years looking for him, doing the happy dance. Haven't talked to him yet, but it means a lot to know he is alive and well. Thank you Lord.

God answers our prayers in His time, not ours. I'm glad His time is now for you & your son.

May this be a new beginning for all of you - we all rejoice with you!

sbeddingfield 12-27-2010 07:14 PM

Bless your heart - I also have been waiting for years to know something - anything - about my daughter. A few months ago, she contacted me. She is in a drug rehab and I can now visit her once a week. God has answered my prayer to finally know. Now my prayer is for the next step - don't know for sure what that is - but God does.
So - enjoy this blessing - and continue to pray.
Blessings,
Scherrie

That is wonderful. Thank goodness you all can reunite.

Izaquilter 12-27-2010 07:53 PM

I know somewhat how you must feel as I sit her with goose bumps on my arm. I had a disagreement with DS's wife & she hasn't spoke to me since the end of July & hasn't allowed him or the grandkids much contact. Things are starting to come around but very very slowly. I am so happy for you. I hope all goes well.

trueimage 12-27-2010 07:56 PM

God is the God of restoration!!! I pray all goes well and forgiveness and given and received on both ends.

Jim's Gem 12-27-2010 08:00 PM

Wonderful news!!! I hope that this comes about really soon for you!!!

fatquarters 12-27-2010 08:03 PM

I think DIL's need to look at the big picture! Having said that, I am a DIL and my MIL has done several things that I don't agree with as I have done things she don't agree with. However, the big picture...... I am also a mother to 3 little boys that will grow up someday and bless me with DIL's I just believe the old saying "What goes around comes around" Being mad is just not worth it. Life's to short :)

I'm so happy for you, GG. Cherish the time you'll have with your son now without dwelling on the lost 15 years. *HUGS*

hannajo 12-27-2010 08:17 PM

I can only imagine the joy you are feeling right now. May God bless you and your son abundantly. Get the fatted calf ready; it's time for a feast...

sueisallaboutquilts 12-27-2010 10:05 PM

What wonderful news!! I'm so happy for you I can hardly speak!

Annaquilts 12-27-2010 10:10 PM

Praying for a happy reunification and healing.

TN Donna 12-27-2010 10:53 PM

Thank the Lord. I have gone a few weeks or months but to go 15 years is surely been a struggle.

JanTx 12-27-2010 11:44 PM

Amen to the fatted calf idea. Sometimes it's just the joy that matters - not the whats and whys and wherefors.

My brother has been missing for 28 years. He would be 58. My mom no longer talks about him, but ... if he were to reappear I'd somehow find a fatted calf. As of 3 years ago I know he was alive - had a friend who is a police chief check for us.

So .... don't look too deep, just love, love, love.

karen65ae 12-28-2010 01:22 AM
