I meant I will miss your input on the daily reading of the bible this year. I look forward to reading your blog to see how you are pondering in His presence this year. You have been and will continue to be a great encourager to me. I am thankful you will be continuing this blog!<br />Karen - central ORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810396843383456111.post-42933350142217646342010-01-01T13:16:32.787-05:002010-01-01T13:16:32.787-05:00Thanks for sharing your precious nuggets this past...Thanks for sharing your precious nuggets this past year!

Your blogs has been apart my day. I've leaned on you for wisdom and daily application. You've taught me to look at the Bible and apply it. I've learned we're not to just read and know it, but to live it out in our day. No matter what you were faced with this year, you always found a truth to hold on to. What an inspiration you have been to me! Thank you dear friend! You're leaving the comfortable and obeying His lead. I know we will meet up at the finish race one day, as our eyes are focused on the One. :) Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I have never seen that before. I look forward to reading through the bible in 2010 and seeing Jesus in each book. Chuck Missler often says, "The New Testament is in the Old Testament concealed, The Old Testament is in the New Testament revealed."<br />If we dig deep enough, we find that it is true.<br /><br />I wish you well in your new journey. I was sadenned to realize that like little Much Afraid, I, too, wanted you, Joy, as my companion up the mountain. Alas, it is not meant to be. I am not too sure about Sorrow and Suffering. But we all must go up our mountains with the guides He choose for us. And if He chose them, then they must be the best fit. Only trust (talking to myself now). <br /><br />One last thing, I remember Dr. Missler mentioned in one of our classes that if there is something in the scripture that we do not understand to keep a journal. Then when the answer comes, to write it down and note the date. He said it's important because when you come in the valley of doubts or despair, you can recount the footprints of the Holy Spirit as He taught you. The Lord certainly prepared you for this new chapter in your walk. Because looking back, your obedience has recorded 365 days of ponderings to help you through whatever comes next.<br /><br />Blessings to you, dear sister. Your father certainly knew what he was doing when he named you. You have been an absolute JOY.<br /><br />((((HUGS))))<br /><br />Love in Christ,<br />~T~Grace and Peacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16967112320704318521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810396843383456111.post-6353188914474120832009-12-31T13:48:56.099-05:002009-12-31T13:48:56.099-05:00Beautiful words again.

What are you saying good bye to that is making you sad?<br /><br />Since I haven't been regular, I may have missed some news, or perhaps I am just misunderstanding.<br /><br />I rejoice to have the privelege of getting to know you this year and see the Lord show His glory through your trial with your dad and your flaming torch of faith that you carried through it.<br /><br />God's bountiful blessings to you in this new year!<br />Love to you!<br />KathyKathy Schwankehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16575973280157910643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810396843383456111.post-61756308976165126182009-12-31T11:26:23.768-05:002009-12-31T11:26:23.768-05:00Your final prayer is one that came to me in a drea...Your final prayer is one that came to me in a dream last evening; I was having to "let go" of a 3 year old child I had taken care of and dearly loved and place him into the hands of his birth parents (I know...odd dream); anyway, as I was "letting go", I was praying the Aaronic benediction over his precious frame. <br /><br />"May the Lord bless you and keep you..."<br /><br />I can't think of a more apt way to bring this season of writing to a close, friend. You've been faithful, and now it's time to move on. Not from God, but with God into the new heights and adventures he has for you. <br /><br />I can't wait to see what he's going to birth in you and through you in 2010. It's been my privilege and "joy" to share in the journey, Joy. As always...<br /><br />peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09675745465728814736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810396843383456111.post-11717323087791683762009-12-31T11:07:59.380-05:002009-12-31T11:07:59.380-05:00What a blessing we have in you, Joy.

A call to a powerful witness, a witness of gentleness and tenderness, of total transparency.<br /><br />It will indeed be exciting for us to meet, and I hear God's whisper that one day soon, we will.<br /><br />God be with you always and in all ways,<br /><br />Liz<br />AKElle Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626608694482982946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810396843383456111.post-86340324145194511442009-12-31T10:06:20.001-05:002009-12-31T10:06:20.001-05:00God will bless you and lead you as you continue to...God will bless you and lead you as you continue to obey Him!
