YOU!

The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense.

- Proverbs 27:9

Happy Friday, everyone!

Today being the last day of November, the last “day of thankful” I wanted to be sure to thank you, my readers, followers and friends.

When God put it on my heart several years ago to start sending an email with His word, I reacted kind of like everyone else to whom He has given a task.

“Why me, Lord?”

Then, He told me (through the advice of a friend) that I should start a blog.

Through sharing His word, I have gained perspective, friends and a greater understanding of His word.

You, my friends, have played an integral part in making that happen.

Friends

Packing up the dreams God planted

In the fertile soil of you

Can't believe the hopes He's granted

Means a chapter in your life is through

But we'll keep you close as always

It won't even seem you've gone

'Cause our hearts in big and small ways

Will keep the love that keeps us strong

And friends are friends forever

If the Lord's the Lord of them

And a friend will not say never

'Cause the welcome will not end

Though it's hard to let you go

In the Father's hands we know

That a lifetime's not too long

To live as friends

With the faith and love God's given

Springing from the hope we know

We will pray the joy you'll live in

Is the strength that now you show

But we'll keep you close as always

It won't even seem you've gone

'Cause our hearts in big and small ways

Will keep the love that keeps us strong

And friends are friends forever

If the Lord's the Lord of them

And a friend will not say never

'Cause the welcome will not end

Though it's hard to let you go

In the Father's hands we know

That a lifetime's not too long

To live as friends

And friends are friends forever

If the Lord's the Lord of them

And a friend will not say never

'Cause the welcome will not end

Though it's hard to let you go

In the Father's hands we know

That a lifetime's not too long

To live as friends

No, a lifetime's not too long

To live as friends

Today I am thankful for the followers of my ramblings, those who read my “daily bread”, those readers that offer feedback and encouragement, who share in my joy and in my pain.  Together we grow closer to God, and for that, I am very thankful.

Have a blessed day!
