Merry Christmas back to you Lorraine! May your day be full of love, faith, sweet memories and the love of our Saviour and may your new year have blessings and faith and love and good health my friend!
Dear Lorraine, I hope you had a wonderful and peaceful Christmas! In Germany we have two Christmas holidays and my husband and I keep up this tradition in America and still celebrate Christmas today as well. Warm regards, Christina
Merry Christmas--and a wonderful, blessed 2017. I am finally having time to catch up a bit on blogworld. I LOVE the clock and the blocks in your header. Brings back memories of childhood.
Wishing you a healthy and merry Christmastide and a prosperous new year! I came here from Tatyana's blog and have read many of your previous posts. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
"Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death. Many waters cannot quench love; neither can the floods drown it."
Gardening with the 3 H's can be a challenge ~ heat, humidity, and hurricane season. Flowers bring me joy and I spend as much time as possible in my tropical/cottage gardens .
When not outside I can be found inside crafting in yarn, thread, beads, ribbon, buttons and laces. I also love to cook and bake.
Thank you for taking the time to visit.

This blog was started in 2008. It has been about life shared with my dear husband and best friend.
He went to be with Jesus 9 Dec. 2012, and my life changed. I miss my husband daily, but God is my strength, and He is with me through each and every day.
Hubby & I will be reunited again one day and what a reunion that will be.
I enjoy gardening, needleworking, reading and music.
Every day is a learning experience.
It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work.
It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

The Continuing Journey
A new blog about this next phase in my life. It will be a learning experience. One of dependence on God to fill the void left in my life by the loss of my DH. It will be my thoughts and times of grief. A place to let it out. Maybe it will be of some help to others.

For Widows
******************
I found the book 'Undistracted Widow ~ Living for God After Losing Your Husband' by Carol Cornish, online when I was searching for bits and pieces to help me as a new widow. This book is wonderful and just what I needed. It is full of encouragement and scripture.
I highly recommend it for anyone who is a widow, and for those who would like to know how to help widows as they go and grow in this next part of their journey.
It would also be a great help to any woman who is single, as it is all about trusting in Jesus for all things.
Sincerely ~ FlowerLady Lorraine

I trust that your Christmas has been a good one.I know that these special times can be lonely, but we must carry on.
Merry Christmas, Rainey; hopefully today has some joy mixed with the ennui. You were thought of often and tucked into prayer.
