52 Blessings Week 17
This past week was kind of a downer week for me...I was letting "life" get me down. BUT...then I remembered that I have a Friend who never fails and HE is with me and will never let me down. I am blessed to be a child of God. I am thankful that I have friends who gives me Scripture to get me through my "tough" times!

52 Blessings Week 16
This week I am blessed because with friends...both near and far. I am blessed to have friends I have known for 30 years and friends I've only known for a year or so. I am also blessed to have reconnected with many friends on Facebook! Sometimes the internet is a good thing! :) I thank God for my friends! Without them and God I wouldn't be who I am today.

52 Blessings Week 15
This week my blessing is the fact that Jesus gave His life for ME! I am in awe of how much God loves me and was willing to send His Son to earth to die for my sins. AND, that Jesus was willing to do it! How can I not serve Him? We should never forget what Jesus did for us on that first Easter over 2000 years ago.!

52 Blessings Week 14
This week's blessing is the fact that we got to take a vacation to southern California. We were blessed to have great friends who let us stay with them. Thank you to Dennis and Lynn Barrett and to Mel and Linda Loucks for opening their homes to us. It was more than appreciated!
We had a beautiful week in Escondido at the Welk Resort. It was so great to enjoy God's creation (and beautiful weather!) and be away from the "daily grind". I was able to spend more time in the Word and I also got caught up on His Holy Name Challenges from Faith Sisters!

It was a great week, and I am thankful for safe travels to and from California!

52 Blessings Week 13
My blessing for this week is my friends. I have a very dear friend named Diane, who I got to see this week (March 27 & 28). She means a lot to me, and it was really great to see her. She blesses me by just being my friend. She did something really nice and unselfish for me, and for that, I will be eternally grateful. She made my life a little easier...thank you, Diane!
I have another friend named Dodie that I also got to see on the 28th...thanks to my friend Diane for driving me up to see her! She has such a talent for organization and I'm always learning new things from her. She also has deep spiritual insite to so many things. I am so thankful for her friendship.
These friends were seen because we took a trip to southern California for a week's vacation.
