New Year

Michele,

It's good to hear from you, albeit not happy news. Dreadfully sorry to hear about your Mother's passing.

We missed you at Belgrave this year. Charles Price told of an old man he knew, in poor health who had a favourite saying that he printed and handed out on little yellow bookmarks. It is "For this, I have Jesus". That has undoubtedly been your strength & comfort in the past year! Love, Geoff

2007

It's been a long, long time since I last wrote on this Blog. If fact I thought it had died and only had a quick look the other day to see that it is still alive, although somewhat poorly.
2007 was not a particularly good year for our family especially the last half of the year.

I personally was going through a difficult time from the beginning of the year, and then at the end of July my mother was hospitalized and passed away 11 1/2 weeks later on Oct 26th. I was very close to my mother and it broke my heart when she died. I have still not come to terms with it. I know that she is with the Lord but find it extremely difficult to have people constantly saying this to me, when I want her here.

Two days after my mother died, my son's best friend took an overdose and died the following Sat. My son was a pall bearer twice in the one week.

There was an horrific accident where 4 teenagers were incinerated in their car and one of those young men was a friend my youngest daughter.

Life can be difficult - we all carry burdens , some that can be shared, others that go very deep and cannot be shared.

If anyone does read this I hope that this year 2008 will be a blessing to each of you.
Michele
