Sad News to Share


Over the past year, I have met some
fantastic bloggers!  A hand full
have become
true blessings to me...
Friends that I have grown
to know, care for,
pray for and in return
they have done the same for me.
This afternoon amidst the hustle and bustle
of celebrating Christmas with family,
I took a minute to pull up email
only to find out that one of my sweet, loving
blogfriends passed away this morning.
Jeanette, my dear sweet Jeanette from
Her husband, Doug, emailed me to share this sad news.
Please pray for Doug, as he in currently
in Saudi Arabia on work and is frantically
trying to secure passage home
to Georgia, where Jeanette was living.

Jeanette and Doug sent us this for Christmas
It was the perfect gift, for I collect Christmas
Angels and display them
in my living room during this season.
This sweet Angel holds photos or cards.
She is currently holding the last card
that Jeanette sent me .
Life is short, and God doesn't promise
us forever on earth.
As I sit in my family room, fireplace is on,
puppies enjoying their new Christmas bones...
tears are flowing down my face.
My heart is heavy and I want to
tell each of you on this Christmas day
that Jesus was God's gift to each of us.
By accepting His gift of LOVE
we are promised forever with Him.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave
his only begotten Son,
that who so ever believes in Him,
shall not perish,
but have eternal life"

I will miss Jeanette terribly....
she had a way of touching lives of those
all around her... including mine.

My prayers are with Doug and the rest of the family.
