It is hard to believe we are starting a new year...dad and I used to pray at the beginning of a new year that whatever the Lord would bring our way in the months to come that we would glorify him...last year we had our greatest test...this new years as I was alone thinking of all the past years of raising children...all the job changes and moves....all the medical scares, and remembering all the times I prayed for dad's health and all the times God healed him and gave us more time together...never in a million years did I ever think cancer would be what would take him.
I have been reading a book on prayer and found my honey in the pages..it talked about those we meet who have childlike faith...that no matter what happens to them they never shrink back, they run and don't grow weary and they trust God no matter what happens. I would get so discouraged at the thought of losing him and he always sensed when I was down and he would encourage me and tell me what we had to be thankful for and remind me all I had gone through and my God would take care of me! Like you Sheri I long to hear his voice sometimes and I am so thankful for all the dvds I have.....most of all I miss his hugs and his praying with me.
This site is a comfort to me ....I am so thankful you loved your dad so much, Love Mom
