Prayer power.
18 August 2018
This 1st year! It hurts. Dis baie eina.
I struggled to get going yesterday. Thankful for so many mercies!
However started yesterday in tears. Thankful for call from my sister Thursday evening.
Friday morning ideas starting with our team for upcoming Nico Malan Spring Festival Herbalife stall.
So my eyes look extra puffy again. Just don’t want to recover since last year from all the crying.
So how do I share this?
Short after my husband passed away, I prayed a really impossible prayer.
Please send my husband back somehow to help me.
I realized how selfish that prayer is, and rephrased it; please send someone like my husband to help me.
And then my husband’s sister showed up here Easter Weekend. When I was so down. Closer to how my husband was, you can’t get.
Or so I thought, till my old friend move back to Kareedouw. She is like my husband and his 2 sisters combined in one.
And for some reason she tolerate me, much like I never understood why my husband loved me.
To many people it probably was a mystery too, the cool popular, 1st team rugby, active sports guy, with me, radical the opposite. When my husband made jokes (like my son) about EVERYTHING, I would give him a dead serious stare, Hi Bokkie, nee man!! Moenie van alles ‘n grap maak nie.”
He laughed anyway and hugged me till where I have to laugh with him too.
So anyway. Yesterday. First ever Team Burger meeting in Jbay while both my children attended youth church meetings, 1st ever for both of them too.
A lady started doing the 5 Day Eat Clean Challenges. As I mentioned her name, my daughter said something, like do I know who they are? Her son is so and so... and I said I don’t care. A client is a client, I strive to treat everyone the same.
So then I meet this young man. And I honestly nearly fainted so much he reminded me of my husband. We have the amazing privilege of having this young man part of our Herbalife team. I thank God for meeting him and his incredible special family. Extremely hardworking people. I am thankful that they have Herbalife Nutrition in they’re life now.
I was serious late yesterday, forgot one delivery to a very special lady and did a late delivery to Nina’s and had our 2nd time sitting at Nina’s without my husband. .
I am very sentimental, but all in all, a very sad day was also made very special. Even though I felt completely out of control yesterday.
12 more days.
Not sure if the 2nd year without our superman wil be more easy....

This year has start of with total chaos for us and nothing is going according to plan.
That desperate prayer and so many other prayers, has moved people to help us.
Some of those people have been inconvenienced to help us.
I am very cautious to pray now. Most of my prayers are normally a desperate or feint out cry:”God please help us.”
I can honestly testify that we have experienced miracles.
However, the trials and tribulations also keep on coming.
That blog about Hope, keep on being postponed, as at the moment I am cutted about our pets getting out yesterday morning at a highlight moment for me.
2nd day they are gone, and the shock and trauma for us, are real. Very real.
Yet, we need to move forward and put one step at a time forward always.
This too shall pass and Rom 8:28!
I pray blessings still over everyone.
Love,
Daisy
