You are mirrored in the faces of all who love You, and who allow Your love to pass freely to others in word, embrace, and holy silence- that sacred encounter captured through a glance, a touch, a moment of recognition. I sit here surrounded by a profound sense of gratitude- I have friends who love me, who believe in me! What an honor and a treasure- what a taste of heaven, to live in that tapestry of woven relationships, bound together by a shared framework, a sure hope in the everlasting graciousness of Your design. Thankyou for each birthday, soiree, and the gift of each precious friend- all jewels in a crown of Your making.
