We are having beloved friends from Wisconsin visit us this week! it is so GOOD to be with friends! especially in this season where the Lord is giving us trials in various relationships. i am reminded how good it is to work things out with each other....it gives history, trust, and wisdom, as well as character development. how we need all of those! i am blessed to have loving, forgiving friends who are determined to work things out, no matter what! i am so blessed!! i want to be a better friend to all of my friends, and future ones too!-- this i pray.
