Hello for the first time!

Hello!

This is a new venture for me – blogging, but it could be good

My place for sharing some God thoughts for life, family and friends!

As Mark has said in his spot, we are all keyed up for our oldest daughter’s wedding next week!…something I, as Mum, have prayed about for a long (long!) time…. and here it is, almost upon us!

Such a joy to be able to know God has led her, and built her into the lovely woman she is today , ready to be a wife to a great guy, of whom we are very proud too!

Psaln 37 has wonderful thoughts on Trusting God – with ALL your heart, Commiting your way to Him, Delighting in Him: Continue Reading…

Walking down the aisle

I’m contemplating and imagining the feelings I’ll have when walking down the aisle with my daughter, Rebecca, next Friday.

It’s a new experience; I remember listening to a Don Francisco song, about a dad who, before he knows what’s happened, gives his little girl away to be married. I cried when I listened! But I’ve grown up now … not to say there won’t be a tear in my eye. It will be a tear of gladness though – chuffed that she’s found a good man!

It’s at times like this that you realise just how precious family is. We’ve five kids, now getting spread around the place – two in London, Dan, with Hanna in Sweden and as they go away, you find that keeping in touch is very important and actually deepens our relationships.

So – it’s all go for us now and in the midst of all the action, I’m enjoying getting some moments to think and pray, and appreciate all the blessings of family.
