I like to receive love via words. That’s my primary love language so I would appreciate your friend’s husband. 🙂 Hope you are doing well, Hazel.

Thanks, Meghan. Jesus’ multiplying the five loaves and 2 fish was some incredible math. 🙂

I so appreciate you sharing this here, Diana. I pray that somehow it will be able to help your d-i-l. I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. I can’t imagine the grief that your whole family has experienced. 🙁 May God continues to send his grace in just the right ways to each of you!

I’m glad if this prompts you to start that journal, June. I go through seasons where I keep a journal like that, and when I do, I’m always blessed by it.

I think you likely underestimate how much people DO care about receiving a card carefully chosen just for them. What a beautiful ministry you have, Ashley! My mother was very good about sending cards (and even letters) to people, but I’ve not been quite as faithful to it as she was.

I’ve been trying to think of an easy way to explain this to my daughter-in-law who is still traumatized by the death of her husband 3 years ago (my oldest son) and her new interest in another young man now. She’s making it too hard, including on herself. Your words have brought light to how I can help her. THANK YOU!

And THANK GOD for His math of the little things I’ve enjoyed with my own husband over our years together!

Blessings to you and Jeff!
