Never neglect an "I LOVE YOU" never forget a HUG!!!!!

  

 Happy Tuesday, and happy birthday to me:) 50, really???? How did this happen???? This morning has not afforded me with sitting out in God's beauty as it is raining and just a titch cold, I am writing from behind the glass in the safe confines of my house. Today is filling up quickly, I will be having lunch with my grandsons, and a late dinner with 2 of my granddaughters, I love so much being MiMi, my babies know just how to make my heart turn to a mushy goo:) It is wonderful to be 50, I am alive and able to worship my Father in heaven openly and freely, I have such a wonderful host of friends, who fill me with inspiration and love each and every day, I have a daughter who completes me both emotionally and spiritually, I have a partner who is the absolute love of my life, who makes me laugh many times during the day, who stands by my side and supports my zany ideas, who loves me just for me! I have a huge family who I love so much...awwww, my life is a good one!
      This morning I got message that one of my sweet and dear facebook friends lost her mother in the early hours on Sunday, it came as a total shock to all! She and her children and grandchildren were able to spend the day on Saturday with her, no indication that it would be their last parade, no indication that mom would not be there in the morning. I talked to my friend this morning and she was doing very well, feeling the effects of the great blessing of having that one last special meeting with her mom. Death is inevitable, we will all die some day, some sooner than later, some in tragic ways some in our sleep. It does not make the loss any less, it does not make the heart ache less, loss is loss! I have lost very few loved ones in my life so I am not an authority on this subject but I do know the lost and alone feeling, the  feeling that twists our guts and breaks our hearts. I know that this fine, gentle, lady has earned her wings, that she is walking the golden path beside our savior Jesus Christ and will be standing on the right side of our Father in Heaven receiving her halo for a job well done here on earth. I know she will soar with the angels and sing in God's heavenly choir while preparing a place for those who will come after her! God is amazing and the reward of our heavenly resting place is not doubt worth all that we battle through here on earth. I ask that you pray with me asking God for peace and calm for this family! God bless you sweet Brenda, know that your name is on our lips today as we get "on bended knees" asking God to give you strength to get through this. May your faith and eternal love be your vehicle in the coming days!
    To all of my friends and family, we never know when something like this will happen in our own personal lives, take time today to let those close in your heart know that you love them, take time today to let them feel your love and adoration, take time today to give out extra hugs and kisses. Love to you all in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen!
