Prayers for Lauren
She is remarkable, faithful, and resilient to so much all the time.
But she is going on Day 20 without looking into Brian’s eyes; without feeling him kiss or hug her back; without talking, singing, or giggling with the love of her life...
So today, as Brian is stable and continues holding his own, let’s flood Lauren with love. Let’s remind her that it’s ok to not be or feel a certain way 100% of the time. That if there is anger, sadness, confusion, frustration- that it does not mean she has lost her faith. It means she is the human that she is always right there to let all of us be.
THE way I knew for sure that Brian was the one for Lauren...
Not by how happy she was (although it radiates from her)
Not by the way she described his character (although it was glowing)
But by the look in her eyes, the tone of her voice, and the complete honesty in her words when she told me “he sees me like no one has ever seen me before.” It was like watching every part of her that has ever been hurt or broken fuse together into the most beautiful Lauren I’ve ever seen.
None of us are Brian, but let’s all put in 500% today to try to all make her feel seen exactly where she is and exactly how she feels. That we love her and see her, without advice or agenda. Let’s do it in a BIG Brian way.
Sending you huge hugs Lauren and bright light to hold you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Praying hard for you, have been this whole time! 💙

ReplyDeleteLauren, I’m a total stranger but you have all been so heavy on my family’s heart. We think & pray for y’all multiple times a day.. just about right when we open our eyes in the morning, moments throughout the day, & before we go to sleep. Your love for Brian is reaching masses. I pray to be half the wife you are to Brian, for my own husband. I pray you find peace in your journey, through the tough times and through the times God moves mountains in your journey. I can’t wait until you feel your sweet love kiss you back. & I pray that moment is near, and soon. Love, a stranger in Denver 💙
ReplyDeleteLauren, Deb's friends are sending you lots of love. Be kind to yourself as you wait for that sweet embrace from Brian. We are all praying for you.
ReplyDeleteLauren, know that you need to refill your tank and that is OK. No one can give as much as you and not replenish at some point. There are a lot of emotions that you have to work through and that is OK. That is normal. I am praying for you and Brian all day everyday. It is on my mind all the time. Sending loving energy to you.

ReplyDeleteLauren, l got ya girl ! You have my Reiki energy beam on you and Brian 24/7 ! I keep sending healing energy to you to hear God clearly when he talks to you and you have a boat load of spirit guides and angels helping you with anything you need. The timing of all Brian’s coming miracles have to come when God is done working on his broken body, Gods timeline...You guys are in my prayers everyday!
ReplyDeleteHey, Lauren, it’s Kelly. I’m praying for you all the time, too, as well as Brian. I can’t imagine what you are going through but I hope that you feel the love and support and care that so many people have for you. You and Brian are on my mind, and in my heart, all the time. Sending extra prayers to you today. ❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteLauren, you don’t know me, but through a friend of a friend, my small group began to praying for Brian the day he was injured. There are 15 of us and we are called the Grace Group. Daily we all lift you and Brian before God asking for healing, wisdom and strength. Let those of us who love Jesus carry you and know you are not alone ... God never leaves us alone. Sending love from Northern Indiana.
ReplyDeleteMy sweet friend Lauren, I'm thinking of you every day, amazed by the woman you are. I have admired you since the first day we met, and I can't imagine having to find the strength that you've had to, but I also know how incredibly capable of anything you are. While we are all praying for Brian, we are praying for you too, fighting such an incredible battle every day. Feel what you need to feel. We support you, we love you, and we're here for you. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteLauren, God is good. I got a miracle last week only possible because of God's Grace, mercy, and love. Don't lose Faith or Hope. We are all praying for complete healing. You are in my prayers and thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI have been following Brian's progress since a post was shared on an alumni page for WIU. You have both been in my thoughts and prayers daily. I hope knowing that so many people are in your corner praying for you both helps make the days a bit easier to get through.
