You have such a way of saying things....what a treasure you are. I have a tiny frame in my bathroom with a few special words printed in it......"and God is still in control"....one of my dear friends tells me that all the time. She started when I was going through such a hard time, and it's so true, isn't it? It says so much in a couple of words......<br /><br />God bless you sweet, tenderhearted girl.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Spencer{Bellamere Cottage}https://www.blogger.com/profile/17808685184476519297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-17137604861970830192009-04-22T10:16:00.000-05:002009-04-22T10:16:00.000-05:00Dear Rebecca, so glad you were there for your frie...Dear Rebecca, so glad you were there for your friend.

Often times in our own joy we forget others may have sadness. It is only when we face a trial do we know how important a blessing can be to us & for us. I use to be one that was always go go go absolute type a personality and i'm so certain i've missed a lot in my lifetime. Living with my illness's has taught me all to well to appreciate the little things and every person who comes into my life for whatever reason. Friend or stranger, all people have something to teach us. I know heartache & heartbreak but I know joy as well. Some days she may be hard for me to see, but it is there in some form. I just need to find her and appreciate her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-42103784314539792762009-04-21T20:17:00.000-05:002009-04-21T20:17:00.000-05:00You always seem to leave me at a total loss for wo...You always seem to leave me at a total loss for words, you are an incredible person!!!!

We had a lot of fun visiting the 'twice but nice' shops in OKC on each of our visits ... filling the car to the hilt before packing up to ship home. It is fun, the people are warm & welcoming. <br /><br />Your friend was placed with you yesterday, for you to share/understand her story. It is so obvious that the pain/hurt you have felt/trod gave way to such deep compassion for your friend ... I am certain you were of great comfort & compassion for her. <br /><br />Isn't it wonderful how God takes/lead us on our daily paths ... God wipes away tears & heals hearts bringing us such happiness thru Him.<br /><br />TTFN ~ Marydonblushing rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14185573384597526789noreply@blogger.com
