Friends, Sisters, Blessings


More and more, I am blessed and amazed by all the dear friends that the Lord has put in my life. I didn't even have enough room (or pictures ;-) ) on the above collage to feature all those friends. In the last couple years, God has brought so many people into my life that have encouraged me in my walk with Him and inspired me in so many ways! I can truly say that they have been the kind that "build up", and that I love them all SO MUCH and do not take a single one of them for granted.

Wait a minute. Why am I saying "them"? It's you! You'ns. Y'all. Whatever your dialect may be. English is severely defective for it's lack of a plural "you"! :-)

"Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." (Proverbs 27:17)

"And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: to the end He may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints." (1 Thessalonians 3:13)
