Sulynn and I brought lunch to Vicki at work today for her birthday. She has had a very rough year. Husband left her, cousin died, dad died, it goes on and on. And yet she has amazed me with her perspective. She does her best, and has realized the Lord loves her and is looking out for her. She is able to see all the tender mercies and let things go. Does that mean she does not fall apart and feel so much loss that it feels like her heart is ripping apart, No. But she still puts a smile on ber face and presses on. I am blessed to have such a wonderful friend!
