Shooting Star, as I read this my eyes filled with tears...but they were happy tears...tears of being blessed by your words and touched by your kindness. The Father has been gracious to me and I am so very grateful. I hope that my life with its bumps and bruises and its sadness and joy will serve as a beacon of hope to those that are going through their storms. The Father reminds me everyday that if we wait upon Him and accept His timing...His gifts are always so much greater than what we ever ask of Him. I thank you for sharing my joy today and my pain in days past. Keep me in your prayers...you will always be in mine. Glory to God in the Highest...and peace to men of good will on earth! In Jesus name...Amen!
