Saying Goodbye...For Now

I am heartbroken today as my good

friend Marci has gone home to be with the Lord.

But, I am happy for her as I know that she

is now without cancer, without pain, and without sadness.

Marci had a wonderful testimony, and was a

great inspiration to me in my life.

We shared so much, and she was such a big part of my life...

that I can't imagine my life without her.

She loved her family

She was an excellent friend to so many

all over the country

She was a mentor to my son and to

other young people

She had a great wit and sense of humor!

And her trademarks: Blue Gingham and Sunflowers

will always, always remind me of her!

I look forward to seeing her again....

Until then, goodbye my sweet friend.

Prayer Request Please

If you know me personally, or have read my blog

for very long, you have heard me talk

about my dear friend Marci.

She's an amazing person who even

has her own store!

(which is closed at the present time)

If the Lord lays it on your heart, would you

pray for her?

She has an inoperable, aggressive brain

cancer. She opted for alternative treatment

and is currently undergoing treatment.

Here is a pic of us when we were together the last

time.

 I would covet your prayers for her, she

is in the fight of her life-for her life.

Thank you so much!

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above

 all that we ask or think, according to the power 

that worketh in us,

Unto him be glory in the church 

by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, 

world without end. Amen. 

 Ephesians 3:20, 21

This is an area I constantly have to work on! Thought you might like to read Marci's post about our relationship with our husbands called: Thoughts on my Heart

(just click on it and it will take you to her post.)

Here's an excerpt:

From the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks. Make a list of all the wonderful things that you love about your husband. What drew you to him? Add to the list and then read it often. When something he is doing bugs you, think of how many things that you do that bug him.

Hop on over and read it--it's good!
