Your post today reminded me of the movie I saw last night about "Hillsong", the worship band from Sydney, Australia. It was subtitled "Let Hope Arise". Your post fits right into that today.

But in the meantime, we do what we must do, and caring for and enjoying my MIL is one of those blessings. Pamela M.

That is why I try so hard to "Be still and know that I am God" as often as possible. I love how He sends us His blessings even through the clouds in the sky...so marvelous!

God has ways of showing us He is thinking about us all the time...we just need to pay attention to the "signs"...I think that is why I love to watch the sky/clouds so much...since that is where we will see Christ return for us someday. And yes, we are blessed to have my MIL here with us. She has dementia, but lately seems to be more like her "old self", which is a wonderful thing. The Lord gives us His grace every day.Pamela M.

She has dementia, but is otherwise in remarkable condition for her age. We are blessed to still have her with us, even tho at times it can be VERY challenging. But gives more grace...so yes, I, too, appreciate the final words, "the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you." He does do that for us. Thank you for visiting.Pamela M.
