Wow – I can not believe someone would say such things! Way to go for trying to handle it…and a way that I feel is honest and still loving. I know I only know you through the blogospehere but I know your heart…it is what keeps me reading here!

Wow! I just read this this morning and am totally outraged! Can’t a person who makes
these kinds of comments actually OWN UP TO THEM! I would be interested to see what
his/her perfect life is like. NO bad times. No problems with finances. And if they are
having trouble you would not criticize them! Personally, Miss Sally Sandrock, Jeremy’s company
renovated a wing in our church TOTALLY FREE! These are hard times for everyone. We are
all doing the best we can.

Just stand on the fact that you know your situation, God knows your heart, and your friends know how awesome
and generous you are and that you care deeply about people!

Well. I think you handled this quite well.

Even though WE LIVE A FEW MINUTES FROM EACH OTHER AND HAVE NEVER MET IN PERSON, I read your heart here….
for whatever reason, this person doesn’t see what we see. And I see a beautiful daughter of the King.

And you know what I think? I think God must trust you and Jeremy quite a bit to allow you to walk through this trial.
You just stay on your face before Him, and do what HE tells you to do…that is all that matters.

Hugs,
steph.

ps – I think Jess and I are going to get to meet face to face at Women of Faith!!! I’m taking the camera. :)

I don’t get it…someone that you don’t know reads your blog and then criticizes your life? Huh? Who has time for that? Boy, if people
would just worry about solving their own problems instead of finding fault with others, the world would be a much better place. I had a couple
of “weirdos” that I had to block from my Flickr account. It kinda creeps me out to think of strangers looking at my photos. It’s a mad, mad
world out there!

Even in the toughest of times, you should not have to explain to others your decisions that concern your children. Shame on whomever wrote that.

Well, I’ve never had one of THOSE comments, but I can imagine that it’s very hurtful. I’m so sorry someone cowardly said those things to you. Whatever…that’s a real good answer to her–don’t you think???

Wow – your first troll… Don’t let them get you down. :) I had one that told me I should never return to the USA because of my political views that I posted. Weirdos.

Hang in there.

I have to ask the Lord to temper me right now, as I have a few comments of my own for Sally Sandrock. Shame on you Sally as you obviously
do not know Jodi or Jeremy very well. Fortunately I didn’t have the pleasure of reading your comment, but judging by what I’ve seen you need to
abide by some of what you preach.
Jodi, I’ll be praying for you and Jeremy as you continue to stand through this storm.

Wow…. yeah.
You know, it makes me think of last night’s lesson at church.
Gary was using Mark 9 and talking about what happened right after the amazing Transfiguration on the mountaintop.
Read it. They no sooner came down from the mountaintop experience and were greeted by arguing, accusations, satan’s attacks, doubt and despaire.
Just keep holding onto your mountaintop experience and continue to respond to this in ‘prayer’ (vs.29)

Love the pics from the trip!! : )
