I know you both in differe...Dear Amrita and Debbie,<br />I know you both in different ways have had to endure trials and fears, far beyond what I am experiencing.<br />Yetdo you both hold up the light of faith midst in the dark valleys.<br /><br />I just read Romans 5:<br />1Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:<br /><br /> 2By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.<br /><br /> 3And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;<br /><br /> 4And patience, experience; and experience, hope:<br />God bless us all this day with hope through experience.<br /><br /> 5And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. storm andFelisol https://www.blogger.com/profile/12240191154632603841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37174210.post-24823683184722519402010-10-01T05:09:54.099+01:002010-10-01T05:09:54.099+01:00It is so good to count one's blessings.

At least we learn to walk by faith through trials especially when we don't know how it will end. <br /><br />I was looking for your email address but couldn't find it in my saved messages. However, I thought I'd just stop by your blog and tell you how much I appreciate your comments, especially today on the thankful Thursday post. <br /><br />Felisol, you are such a blessing. You always take time to leave messages of love. That means so very much to me. I'm so glad that we also share a friendship with Sonja, another Norwegian. :)<br /><br />May the Lord bless you abundantly Felisol. Your words of comfort did just that and I thank you.<br /><br />love you,<br />DebbieDebbie Petrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235978883396499354noreply@blogger.com
