“Pansies” by Kate Seymour Maclean
HI SALLY this is just beautiful. I loved every minute of it and so timely too for me and my family . I am going to re listen to it again tonight……. the readings were perfect. My mom has been in the hosptial in PHOENIX for a few weeks. My husband was to bring her here and could not as she became ill… she is a warrior for sure and in nineties but strong in Spirit. Husband is sleeping in the hosptial with her and she is getting stronger. each day. Her sister from IDAHO will come down this next week to stay with her.. if that works out ok…. my husband can come here fora while to talk over plans for us to leave in the spring to our land out there. in Arizona. Erick , my son who had the liver transplant is doing well .. healing from it well and his five eye surgires done well as he can see better now without glasses at times. I am workingo n transfers of his medical records…. to the Phoenix area that hosptial is a transplant hostpital and ecen if we cannot stay the whole time there we can go for a few months in winters and come back here to our place here when we get a place soon… in summers. Erick is a college grad with writing ability like few have. We are working on his book Bart Jenkins and the Magic Bag….. and I am working on compiling my forty poems written during my running of my B and B ..Willow House in Virginia Minnetoa while he was ill up there and healing…. then we came here so our journy is always with GOD leading us. I lost the house back to the bank. but it is ok.. was a beautifulold 1900 home built with the wood from the boards across the lake there in town in the 1900’s I took care of the elders there while running our resort and got to gain the house with just what I had left from sale of other things.. though I lost the hosue I ran the B and B three years to help Erick and me move forward as he healed…from his breakdown.. and I got the best teaching job I ever had to sustain us too as my husband of that time left me with the debts and the house and a sick son…. not his natural son so he left us . It was ok he is a good man and did what he could but never worked so is back in the wodos and married I guess the love of his life. all good. I married my husband too on a Bible Study I did out in New Mexico so we are so blessed as your readings say.. with thelessons we learn and progress we make in our Father … Love and thank you for this amaizing website. Our Father is our creator and we his reflection in Spiritual Reality.. and that is naturally all good and seeing the good only. I have no tv and am glad for that.. and news is only if I choose to see what is there and pray over it to turn it to the Love of God . Blessings to your family and joy to you.. you are an amazing woman of Faith and proof of God;;s chosen to lead us forward in HIS GLORY. Love from Merri in Northfield Minensota and my spirit cat BART .. x warm for us in Minnesota and no snow yet we are very grateful for that xx
Hi Merri,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment when you have so much going on in your life. I hope everyone is on the mend more each day and you can see God leading you and your husband as you make decisions. I also hope these audio posts continue to bless you. ♥
