Not a soul may ever take the time to read the meanderings of my mind, but here it is. god continues to do a miraculous work in my life, and lately as He has revealed Himself to me, I have this sense of needing to "write it down." So since I am much more likely to do that in this format than on paper, here we go. Praying that any eyes that fall on this page will somehow see through it to a glimpse of Him...Oh, and maybe we can giggle together every now and again. ;)

In Memory of a Sweet, Special Girl
This is our Gracie. We found out a few weeks ago that she had cancer and wouldn't be with us much longer. We had to take her to the vet this morning before she began to really suffer.
Jimmy rescued her as a puppy and when he went through his divorce, I believe she rescued him right back. She was the biggest chihuahua ever! She wanted so badly to be a lap dog! As you can see...not happenin'! But she would just lean into you trying to get you to love on her. She was a sweetheart until the very end.
So if you read this, please say a prayer for us, especially my sweet Jimmy. He is having a hard time. We are drawing comfort in knowing that He cares about our hurts and that if He watches over the sparrow, then He surely must our beloved pets.
"Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God." Luke 12:6 NIV
The words of two comedians seem to resonate...In the infamous words of Bob Hope, "Thanks for the memories," and in the infamous words of George Burns, "Say goodnight, Gracie."
