Joyce Duncan

Has soared to the Heavens to join our gracious God and Our sweet Robynn. What a lucky lady! Joyce is Miss Denise's mother in law and the mother of her husband of 27 years, Wayne. Please check "comments" for the details, but know when she came to us for her two dear friends, she had no idea Joyce was no longer with us. They are in shock and great pain. Please let them feel our presence as faithful soldiers of the Lord and surround them in deep and comforting prayer. How wonderful for them that all of you will help strengthen them. What a blessing!

Love to you all and BIG HUGE Robynn Hugs to Miss Denise!
Pray On!

Dear Miss Denise ~ I am so sorry for your loss and for the battles that your close friends are facing. The following scripture comes to mind:

When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.
Isaiah 43:2

Know that our Lord and Savior is not only with you, his Holy Spirit presence is embracing you and your family as we speak.

Recently our pastor reminded us that when bad times come, and they will come, we need to keep a song in our heart that will get us through. Before I checked the blog this morning I was listening to a song called While I’m Waiting by John Waller. I first heard this song from the movie, Fireproof, and have made this song one that I listen to daily. It has come in quite handy of late as life’s daily trials seem to rage on. In any case, it is a great reminder to remain hopeful, and continue to run the race, as I’m sure your mother-in-law and Robynn would want you to do. Below are just a few of the lyrics.

I’m waiting, I’m waiting on you Lord, and I am hopeful, I’m waiting on you Lord, Though it is painful, But patiently, I will wait, I will move ahead bold and confident, Taking every step in obedience, WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL SERVE YOU, WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL WORSHIP, WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL NOT FAINT, I’LL BE RUNNING THE RACE, EVEN WHILE I WAIT - I’m waiting, I’m waiting on you Lord, And I am peaceful, I’m waiting on you Lord, Though it’s not easy, But faithfully, I will wait, Yes, I will wait . . . .

You will be in my prayers Miss Denise. . . Stand Strong and know you are not alone.

I love what Sabrina has posted and can't say anything that she didn't say so perfectly...so I echo what Sabrina said.

In friendship~

Miss Denise, I know you don't know me, but my cousin (Traci)is married to Keith Duncan. Keith and family are such amazing people. I just wanted to let you know that my prayers are with the entire Duncan family at this time of loss. May You all find comfort in the Lord and I will be saying extra prayers for all of you on Friday.
