quotables


the flowers pictured above were taken in april while i was in BC ... the flowers here in middle earth are just opening up ... i feel like i have enjoyed a lovely lllooonnnngggg springtime - watching buds burst with colour all over north america ... quite cool ...

my poor blog is suffering ... i do compose posts ... but only in my head ... and i do wonder how my blog buds are doing, then life happens and i don't go check ... *frown*

i was at my eye specialist yesterday ... he put me on the glaucoma eye drops ... i have to learn how to put them in at bedtime ... hopefully they will make the eye pressure go down ... a new phase in life ...

just a short post ... i wanted to end with some quotes that my heart responded too ... blessings on all!!

"Just as surely as God implants the life cell in the tiny seed that produces the mighty oak, and as surely as He instills the heartbeat in the life of the tiny infant yet unborn, He implants His divine life in the hearts of men who earnestly seek Him through Christ." from my Billy Graham daily devotional. xxx Cathy

I hope your drops work. I have been on mine for over a year, having switched from a very painful set, both eyes, morning and at night. Love the new ones and they have helped. Hopefully you are using mine. They will work!

"He will bring me forth to the light", Micah 7: 9.

I know what you mean about 'life's happening' & I don't get around to blogging. I mean to....after a fashion. But.... Its so enjoyable to be outside working in the flower beds and see the different things starting to bloom. I'm loving hubby being retired too. I spend more time outside . Enjoyed your favorite quotes! *hugs*
