Thank you for the update, Karen. I continue to pray for all of you. During a tough time for us I remembered this song: When you can’t see His hand, trust His heart.

Thank you so much for the update, my dear. Though I have been in the hospital because of my heart and a blood infection and then in rehab for a couple of weeks, you have always been in my thoughts and prayers. At my lowest I prayed that He would take me home. And, all this time a group of doctors were fighting to keep me alive. My prayer should not have been for the little things that I wanted, but only "Not my will, but thine be done, dear Jesus!" I must not question Why He still wants me here at 102 years old! Yes, our hope is in the Lord, Keep trusting and never doubt my love for all of you. Kelly

They are inspiring, funny, sad, emotionally charged and I always look forward to reading them. Thank you for taking the time to always dig deep with your heartfelt writings. Love you.

Regardless of the stress you are experiencing I think getting away from everything at home is good brake for you and with time hopefully everything will get better. God is in control and just keep the faith. Love you my friend.
