Some of us have been friends for more than 30 years.
Through these years, we’ve walked through joy and sorrow, peace and anguish. Weddings, births, and deaths. Misunderstandings, impatience, and ugly attitudes. Fractured hearts and fractured minds, restoration and renewal.
We’ve spoken words of affirmation and acceptance, and we’ve encouraged one another to keep on keeping on, knowing that Christ will complete the good work he began in us, attempting to love one another as He loves us.
So we keep showing up, rejoicing in the gift of friendship, and like today, celebrating the birthday of a treasured friend.
Lovely? Yes indeed!
Indeed such friendships are an amazing gift from the Giver of every good and perfect gift. How poor we would be without them!
I am so humbly grateful for all of you! Yes, where would we be without one another?
This is lovely, Tammy! I love to see you surrounded by thi
Stacy, I wish we could go out together for a cup of tea and have a face-to-face conversation. But I am so glad we’ve reconnected!!
Love you all and treasure your friendship and fellowship from afar.
And we love and treasure YOU, Joan. I’m so glad you started your FB/blog about your life in Siberia. It somehow brings you closer!
