G'mornin all,
However you may or may not have been affected by the Chancellor's words yesterday remember a glass half full is better than a glass half empty, so always look on the bright side of life. |

I am sure you had ample POE prayer - but maybe there was a bigger plan for you and it had to go this way! "Our's not to reason why!" The best thing will be that it is over at long, long last, and the rest and best of your life is still to come. You will be able to use your energies now for a much better future.
Thank you Cathy. You're a great friend and always make me feel better. Thank you so much for the encouragement. |

Perhaps this little prayer which came to me from Urmi may make you realise that there are better things around the corner Whatever your cross, Whatever your pain, There will always be sunshine, after the rain.... Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall; But God's always ready, to answer your call.... He knows every heartache, sees every tear, A word from His lips, can calm every fear... Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night, But suddenly vanish, by dawn's early light.... The Savior is waiting, somewhere above, To give you His grace, and send you His love. May God fill your day with blessings!!
Hus as well!
Thank you so much Sally for your thoughtfulness, hugs and kisses. It means a lot to me to have friends like you who are so caring and encouraging. Hugs back as well! |

As Ellie says these are called the "end times" because they are an closing of the old ways of doing things. Learn to take them gracefully and move on. Easy to say..hard to do sometimes. But it can be done. Someting an friend sent to me....When your problems rise up, to bog and depress, And your spirit gives way to despair, when your mind is an vent ..To an burden's intent..and your lips can't give voice to a prayer. Turn away from the thoughts...that cause you distress, they hinder the self in repair..Trust God to provide..what heartstrings confide, with assurance your still in his care. When God doesn't seem to be answering your problems...its because he has something better for you in mind. seek and ye shall find. Helping others...loses your gripe on your own problems. Best of luck in the future...you are made of the stuff to overcome your dfficulties....always have been and always will.
Shirley, thanks so much for your thoughtfulness. That is a lovely poem. And thanks for your encouragement too. |

It must be wonderful over there in lovely spring, with all the spring festivals. Some of them go back hundreds of years, don't they? I'm home from work today with the creepy crud, but will probably go back to work tomorrow. Cathy E - you hang in there. You'll be fine. At least the divorce is final, like everybody else said, it's the beginning of a new future. It's really easy for us to say, I know, because we're not going thru it, but some of us have and it isn't for lack of prayer and good wishes that things didn't go as you'd hoped. You know we love you and will continue to pray for you and Elsie in the days ahead.
Thank you Ruth for your thoughtfulness, prayers and friendship. Divorce is not final until end of August beginning of September. All the arguments are resolved. And when final I will officially become an England again! |
