the colors?...the culmination of a seasons glory...
Today I thought...autumn is like our lives when we're nearing our completion on this earth.
We are our most colorful when we aproach the end of our life here...simply a changing of the season ...heading for the eternal season, the everlasting.
Surely the King of all the seasons..the only one that can be counted on as the BEST, the FINEST...
Life is a GIFT...like flowers offered from a tender heart...freely given.
The seasons change...
and wounds heal...
Like a tree that loses it's FINEST limb....
It cries for the loss...losing it's lifes energy for a season....all the while the HEALING is silently, miraculously happening.
Our Family is preparing to offer up our FINEST...
My Love...
My Childrens Father ...
My Grandchildrens Papa...
the man Loved by many...
Such a God we serve...the Wound Healer.
Such a God we serve...the Wound Healer.
Your prayers...a pricless gift .
with endless love, Kathy.
Forgive my absence as my family and I attempt to surround my "Love " with as much support and time together as we can these last days .
