An Answer to Prayer!

Heidi is an answer to prayer.

Several years ago as a newlywed, I longed for a best friend in a new community. God answered that deep desire of my heart. It took time for God to complete bringing our paths together . . . But He knew all along how He would answer that specific request, even before I felt the need.

A few weeks ago we had some special music at church, a duet . . . singing, "When burdens come so hard to bear that no earthly friend can share . . ." That is so true! Many times we can only confide all our problems and feelings to the One who can truely understand, . . . who knows everything . . . who can bring peace in the midst of the storm.

. . . But Heidi is one of my best "earthly" friends! And today I share in the excitement of her starting her very own blog! May the Lord bless you my friend!

By the way she has been by my side, along with my hubby of course, through my last two home water births. Actually she ran the red, fan\water squirter to cool off my face most of the time . . . It was a great help.

AMEN Julana!! I coudln't agree more!! I jsut got done talking wiht her and she is riding back with a lady that has no air conditioning. THe whole day today it was between 90 and 100 degrees. Then they got stuck in a traffic jam and had to weasle their way off a side road to keep some air blowing on the two youngest children. They finaly stopped for the night, still 14 hours from home though. :-(

She can't get home too soon!!
