"If our hopes seem to be experiencing disappointment right now, it simply means that they are being purified.
Every hope or dream of the human mind will be fulfilled if it is noble and of God.
But one of the greatest stresses in life is the stress of waiting for God.
He brings fulfillment, "because you have kept my command to persevere..." Rev. 3:10"
The road seems long, so I desperately needed these words to continue to persevere

It's wonderful you count your blessings! We did it every day before Thanksgiving, but it should be a daily thing all year! I love the M&M picture, we are "sorters" too!
Hi, Karen,
Great list to read this morning! It's been a while since I read that devotional book. I need to get it back out again...
My oldest daughter is in a basketball league with our church and she loves it! Her Daddy is her coach~This is their fourth year playing and coaching. :)
I am thankful for the experience of blogging. I have met so many wonderful, Christian ladies who inspire, motivate, and encourage! I am also thankful for YOU, Karen! You are a sweet friend.
So, I am just stopping by to let you know that I'm thinking of you...and praying for you!
Blessings to you today~
