One Year Ago

One year ago today...

I got up early in the morning after anxiously cleaning my house late into the evening before. After a bowl of cereal, I climbed into my car with directions and headed toward Orrville, OH where I was to meet face-face a woman I had gotten to know through an online book club. It was a beautiful warm fall day filled with deep and God-led conversation. When I left that evening and drove home I had no idea that the day was just the introduction in a longer story that is being written.


Since then...

She has become one of my dearest, most treasured friends. She has blessed me in countless ways through sharing her story, her prayers, hugs, tears and laughter. While we both turn another year older this month, we also move into another year of this friendship. We pray that God will continue to bless it and weave it in beautiful, unexpected ways.

Looking forward to another year of wonderful memories...
