How blessed I felt while reading such kind well wishes from such dear people and friends! What a difference this last year has been in my life! I sat with tears streaming down my face when I was reminded of the contrast of where I was a year ago. All of you have contributed so much to bringing me to a place where lonliness dwells no more.
Thank you very much...

In "pastures green"? Not always. Sometimes He
Who knoweth best, in kindness leadeth me
In weary ways, where heavy shadows be.
And by "still waters"? No, not always so.
Ofttimes the heavy tempests round me blow,
And o'er my soul the waves and billows go.
But when the storm beats loudest and I cry
Aloud for help, the Master standeth by,
And whispers to my soul, "Lo, it is I."
So, where He leads me, I can safely go,
And in the blest hereafter I shall know,
Why, in His wisdom, He hath led me so.
