WOW!

   Tonight I was chatting with a friend who has M.S. and quite a Spirit about her.  She had mentioned she was enjoying her salad, although she can no longer taste anything, but 'remembered' what it used to taste like.  Kind of like having sight as a child, going blind as an adult, but 'remembering' in your MIND's EYE what your experiences were from the past.  AWESOME!  So glad that I GOT it!
   Sometimes in the 'simpleness' of life we need to remember the things that gave us great JOY and PEACE and TENDERNESS.  This was one for her and keeps her going as she deals with her symptoms.  We have shared with one another that things happen in HIS time, NOT ours.  Onward to the second blessing:
   Remember the previous story of the 8 1/2 year old child who wanted to work on his scouting medal in RELIGION?  Well . . . he and his parents took the FIRST step and met with a religious person.  Seems the ENTIRE family has made a choice to go FORWARD in learning what is expected of them on their journey of returning HOME.
   When all of us remember that things happen in HIS time and NOT ours - we are indeed BLESSED with the SiMpLiCiTy that this life brings to us!
