Lightbulb Facing the Waves Together

This picture shows a line of little girls holding hands facing the immensity of ocean waves. Alone they might be washed away, but together they stand strong. Thank you each for holding my hand somewhere along the way when I was facing a wave of my own. I hope you will reach for my hand when your own wave threatens.

Shalom!

I've been holding your hand? I thought you were holding mine.

I love how recovery and the support of a wonderful group like this can do for us what we cannot do alone.

And I absolutely love that picture...I'm a water person, I am grateful for all my girlfriends now and past and the friendships that have lasted through many many waves, and the bond we find with each other.

Thanks, Teach, this warmed my heart today.

This sentence reminds me of the saying:
Don't walk in front of me, for I may not follow;
Don't walk behind me, for I may not lead;
Just walk beside me, and be my friend.

Thanks for being a friend.

Shalom!

This morning when the Lord opened a window to Heaven, He saw me, and asked:

"My child, what is your greatest wish for today?"

I responded:
"Lord please, take care of the person who is reading this message, their family and their special friends they deserve it and I love them very much."

The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginning, but not its end.

With love to all those reading this message...
I won't see the end result, but, I know it's beginning. It starts here...

Shalom!
