New Year's Wish


Mary,
I'm borrowing my comment to you, but it is my wish for everyone who visits here...

May this year bring
in place of sorrow, healing
In place of tears, laughter
In place of loneliness,
friends and more friends,
In place of despair, hope
In place of the unknown...
...still, the unknown
For how else can we trust?

God Bless you in 2012.

  4. No one could say it better... and God bless you as well! I don't know how you happened across my blog this summer, but I'm so thankful you did ~ you are such a dear friend! I've grown so much through reading your words... thank you for everything!

  5. Megan, the way I found you had to be a 'God thing':) At that point in my profile I had listed a bunch of favorite singers and I clicked, I think...Alison Kraus's name to see who some more Alison K. fans were. I scrolled through until I found...YOU! Praise God! You have encouraged me and inspired me in more ways than you can ever know!

    I wish you and your family a blessed 2012.
    Can't wait to see what lies in store.
