Friendships and Fellowship

This week I have thought alot about those two things I have met some great "family" since I have lived in Paragould. I call them family b/c they have been there for me whenever I have needed them. My dear friends good friend passed away this week and it made me realize how precious time is...God doesn't promise us tomorrow. We tend to get busy in our own lives and forget to make time for friends and fellowship. Sure we chat here and there but we dont stop and enjoy each other the way I believe God intended. I think He wants us to laugh and love and live lives with people...true relationships. The more we perfect our relationships with our husbands, family and friends...I think the better and more understanding we are in our relationship with our Heavenly Father. I am so glad I got to sit down and laugh and spend time with my "family" last night. G and Q and Kev and Kim are very important to my family. I know with Q and Kev heading out (Afghanistan) those moments are precious and I appreciate them sharing their time with me and my family. I admire them all for the sacrifices they have made and are continuing to make for us. Their families are amazingly strong and I hope I can help lift them up while their husbands are gone. I hope I can keep spending time with friends and building these relationships. I do love all my friends that are like family and have found that I do truly need them in my life.  Happy Birthday Jarred! Kim I hope you are making it through this day! :)
