Christmas miracles

By Flo living in Mexico | More from Flo

How is it possible that Christmas is already here? Christmas is something I am never prepared for. Last week was total freak-out week in order to be ready for our first show at a local mall, which thank God came out just swimmingly in spite of the ups and downs. I admit, at the time the sashes seemed dysfunctional, skirts too long and shirts too “something”, the harmonies forgotten, and guitar strings broken… but who cares? When it all came together there was that “je ne sais quoi” in the air that ushers in the best of Christmas.

After many years of doing office-type missionary work, Florecita is testing her hand as a field missionary. She is currently the counselor of a group of teenagers, does outreach, restaurant singing… and anything that is needed to help her center and its projects keep momentum. She is also an aficionado of photography and hopes that with it she can show the world a little more of The Family International, its projects, and the wonderful people in it. More about Flo

My name is Laura Norman. I am 43 years old. I have always helped the poor my entire life. Something very scary has happened to me. I have found myself in a very very deep depression. It started in June 2006. I am taking medications,cannot work and I have now applied for disibility, but fear the worst. I attend a church and thats the only place I actually feel safe. I will not attend tomarrow, as I have no offering to give. Christmas is quickly approaching, and I managed to finally put up my old tree. I thought it would lift my spirits. No present are under the tree, and none will be this year. I never thought I would ever swollow my pride, but fear and depression has a tight grip on me. My car is going to be repossed ed and I will be evicted if a miracle in life does not show itself very very soon. Life has become, confusing,scary and disabling. I have prayed every day, I know the Lord hears me, I just cannot figure out what he is telling me. Just one miracle in my life and I would be in debt for the rest of my life. What is happening to me? Why is everything falling apart so quickly? Does the Lord hear me? It is Dec 9 and there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Oh Precious Lord, Please hear my cry, please grant me ONE miracle. Let me see the light. I have no where to go when I am evicted and cannot think of not having transportaion. God Bless anyone that hears my cry for Just One Miracle. Please, this is soppose to be a time of happiness, not sadness. I have NEVER asked anyone for anything, But I need some assistance to get above water. I am trying so hard to beleive in Miracles, as I in the apst have created many for so many people. Now, Iam in a situation and noone seems to care. My Pastor always says, BELEIVE IN MIRACLES. I am trying SO hard to accomplish this, with no success. God Bless you and God Bless Me
