Taking A Break


Taking a break from blogging
for awhile.


Thank you for your prayers.

I could use prayer right now
and 
when you think of me . . .
send me a hug in your thoughts.

Your blogging sister,
Connie

I will be reading comments,
but not posting them.

    My dear, sweet friend. You are ALWAYS in my prayers. Steve IS in the arms of Jesus and away from the trials of this life. I know that isn't much comfort in your grief right now. We love you and will be here when you're ready.
    Blessings, love and many hugs,
    Betsy

    Spring is coming Connie, as you know, we just cannot be afraid of what is to come in terms of this virus, or anything else, for that matter. We simply cannot give up. It is tiresome but we must move forward. Peace be with you and Steve:)

    Dearest Connie, you and Steve are always in my morning prayers. May you both feel the Lord's strength and loving presence at this most difficult of times for you. May you find peace and comfort in the warmth and fragrance of His love. God bless you both. Thank you for sharing that previous post about the angels and acknowledging the blessings we're given. So beautiful. Sending you sisterly hugs in Christ.

    Definitely, you and Steve are in my "book of names" and prayer journal. Every morning about 1-2am I meet with God. Keep looking up. He never leaves us nor forsakes us.

    In this difficult time, keep in mind that there is no time frame for grieving. There is no right or wrong way. We all grieve in our own way. You need to do whatever works for you. Please take care of yourself and know that I am thinking of you. Hugs my friend.

    My heart breaks for you during this hard time. When my precious husband passed away, I received a card with this sentiment -- "While nothing can make this time any easier for you, maybe it will touch your heart to know that while we mourn the loss, we also celebrate the gifts we never would have known if we hadn't known such a wonderful person." My thoughts are with you. Patty

    I've been taking a long extended break from blogging which quickly turned into years. I do occasionally pop in to see what everyone is up to, but have been away for so long that I feel I don't belong here anymore. I've been reading your blog every so often, and have been sending prayers your way. When my mom was leaving me due to cancer, she quietly said "it's all in God's hands" because she knew how sad I was. But that phrase gave me comfort, and she was so comforted by it as well I know. Hugs to you Connie, sending more prayers your way for you and Steve.
