and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye
mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”

If only I’d known you better I’d have come running with a bucket.”

Blessings ~ yesterday, my parents, siblings,and nephew, together with Dave and I, celebrating Christ’s birth ~
Merry Christmas,
Sandra
Beautiful pictures and words. I am so happy that you are walking with God. You will be in our hearts and prayers.
God Bless

God is so good in the midst of such a trail as this. What an awesome hug from Him to have family gathered around. 🙂
I'm so glad to hear you and Dave celebrated with family. I hope it was a wonderful Christmas for you both. I count you as one of my 2010 blessings.
Woke during the night and wondered what I was supposed to be doing – praying seemed the only logical answer (I didn't have to go to the bathroom which is unusual for this old gal in middle of the night!) – so sweet to have time in the dark quiet to talk to Abba Father – He knows about your current situation and reassures it will be used for a purpose which we are not able to understand right now. So Happy SonDay and bless you two as this journey continues.
G'morn Sandra ~ Profound words of wisdom …
Our gathering to celebrate Jesus' birth is such a gift in the joy & love He has given us …
Prayers lifting, going to Mass now & I shall lift you both.
Hugs & love, sweet friend ~
