The 12th day after Christmas

Today, 8 years ago, is the day that my dear husband went to be with the Lord. He spends his days singing and dancing around the throne with all the saints. Lucky Steven. I have come a long way in these past 8 years. It has only been through and with the Lord Jesus that I have been healed from pain and grief. Hannah will turn 12 next month. I can rejoice for the trials that I have endured and know that I am better for them.

Psalm 116 : 1-6 I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy. Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live. The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow. Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, save me!" The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion. The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me. Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you. For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

You are a blessing to all of us who have the privilege of calling you dear friend. I miss you. Call me sometime and we'll do what we can to get together. Give Hannah a big hug for us. Need a Sunday lunch with you guys!
