This has been a week of many life gains and losses too as I say goodbye to another co-worker (again) whom I really respect and admire. He has been instrumental in my job and will be missed greatly as our company makes further economic cuts. He was not only a co-worker, but a friend. When you find both in a job – it is a rich experience.
My brother declines in health, Anthony struggles on in school, a friend deals with a cheating husband that then results in loss of vehicle /possibly her home, I struggle with forgiveness in church…..I grasp at the positives in life I can find and pray that these 7 lean years will end and we can have 7 rich years once more. God grant me the strength.

Val,
Congrats to Sophia - how can you not rejoice with such a little one who's smiling so brightly?
For many of Joseph's time, the abundance of the land wasn't remembered because the famine was so severe. I'm glad my friend, that you are able to find the positives in the midst of these famine times.
I constantly remind myself each morning not so much about the losses, but what I still have in Christ.
**Hugs**
