I never hear of her before either and she so inspired me and it fits this time we are going through too. Daily prayer is so needed. Thank you for praying. May your Holy Week and Easter fill your heart and spirit.

Hi Peggi, yes it is sad how mistreated people with disabilities were and I find it so hopeful when I see anyone succeed no matter their capabilties. She was quite the overcomer, wasn’t she?

It is sad how many in past generations were so ashamed of a child with birth defects. What an overcoming! She makes my few troubles feel very small. Thanks for sharing her story.

Like you the news just is continually posting on this Covid-19 pandemic but I do need to be updated and then try to focus on other things. I do pray daily for everyone who is it/has been impacted by this virus!
This week I am trying to focus on Holy week and meditate on the meaning of this week as well as how fortunate I am to have Him as my Savior!
I look forward to your posting on your Healthy Sprituality site.

If we ever needed encouragement about persevering during trials it would be right about now. Jean, thank you for this reminder to do so …

Like you, I feel compelled to be updated on what is going on in the world, yet it is too much inundation in so many ways. We all need stories like Margaret’s to move forward in courage, faith and resolve for the glory of God.
Blessings!
