Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand, Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know. Hear now, and I will speak; I will ask You by the hearing of the ear; But now my eye sees You". Job 42:2-5. You speak to us because you have asked God for instruction and He has answered (as He always does!). Therefore we have the blessing of hearing and seeing Him through you.

What a beautiful testimony of God'...Hi Laurie, <br /><br />What a beautiful testimony of God's work in your life. I had no idea until I recently stumbled on your blog what was happening and read your blog with a mixture of sadness and joy for how God is using you to be a testimony of faithfulness to Him and to your marriage. Its an amazing thing to read about. I couldn't help but think when you mentioned that he is not agitated, angry or combative that even his Alzeimer's is shaped by his love for God.<br /><br />Love,<br />Beth (Mack) de SwardtSybrand and Beth de Swardthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04670454337848192583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-13727246664191307282012-05-22T15:23:40.408-07:002012-05-22T15:23:40.408-07:00Thank you.Thank you.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064622532512376013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-35392024573579152312012-05-22T15:23:17.055-07:002012-05-22T15:23:17.055-07:00Thanks Wendy.Thanks Wendy.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064622532512376013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-3894120806076639632012-05-22T15:22:34.258-07:002012-05-22T15:22:34.258-07:00Yes we do, and the strengthening comes like wave a...Yes we do, and the strengthening comes like wave after wave.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064622532512376013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-76583069576961323782012-05-22T15:21:16.584-07:002012-05-22T15:21:16.584-07:00Thank you Diane...Thank you Diane...Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064622532512376013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-35309069721192081242012-05-22T11:34:53.946-07:002012-05-22T11:34:53.946-07:00GREAT TITLE!!! not to mention post! inch by inch, ...GREAT TITLE!!! not to mention post! inch by inch, row by row, your day in a life shines the most beautiful garden of love. you are both a reminder and living model of all that is. thank you. ~ another blahgirl ;)Geniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10896188287512650954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235115053560175426.post-80202325779953009372012-05-22T10:03:19.056-07:002012-05-22T10:03:19.056-07:00I think it's great you share all of this.
