"Friends are God's way of taking care of us."

Thank you girls for a delicious lunch and wonderful conversation.

Life

In all reality I knew this was life.

Life as it was meant to be.

Life given to us through an earthen vessel.

Life given to us by our Heavenly Father.

Life.

In all reality I prepared myself for such a journey.

A journey learned through His Word.

A journey expected.

A journey to rejoice.

But…separation hurts.

I am learning how God hurts

when WE separate ourselves from Him.

"Blessed are they who have

the gift of making friends,

for it is one of God’s best gifts.

It involves many things, but above all,

the power of going out of one’s self, and

appreciating whatever is

noble and loving in another.” Thomas Hughes
