Decorating Our Tree

As many of you know this has been a very difficult week for our family. My older sister, Billie Marnay, passed away on November 19th leaving behind two children. While this time has been extremely challenging for our family we have also seen and felt the Lord's compassion, love and mercy. So even in the midst of this tragedy God provided moments of relief. Amazingly enough the girls decided it was time to decorate the tree! So I wiped away the tears, put on a smile and hung some ornaments.

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles" ~ 2 Corinthians 1:3,4
