Hope

I had lunch with a new friend and we both decided that HOPE is essential to being able to move forward into blessings in our lives.  We spent quite a bit of time discussing relationship, specifically relationships with ourselves and a significant male partner.  Reflection on the way I was put together with my wonderful husband of 17 years inspired and encouraged my friend who has been single for some time.  I am glad that in the midst of some very difficult times in my life I was able to still hold on to a glimmer of hope, no matter how small and try again for a meaningful relationship.  This relationship that I am in now has exceeded every expectation that I ever had for marriage.  I am so grateful.  It is just one more way that I feel incredibly loved by my LORD.  He gives good gifts and restores more than what was lost!  Oh how I love HIM!  Thank you Father for all that you have done in my life.
