Friends and Fotos

This post is dedicated to all my wonderful friends,both on the blog and on FaceBook.Thank-you for making my life rich and full.

I will be using quotes from a perpetual calendar about friendships.

 To have a friend is to have one of the sweetest gifts that life can bring.

One of the most welcome places we can find is in the heart of a special friend.

A loving relationship is a wanting to celebrate, communicate, and know another's heart and soul.

 Friendship is won, not by the giving of things, but by the giving of the heart.

 May you be given more and more of God's kindness, peace and love.

Jude 1:2

White-throated Sparrow

Love, like sunshine's warmth, beams forth on every side and bends to every need.

Setting sun and clouds.

It isn't the big pleasures that count the most; it's making a great deal out of the little ones.

Insomuch as anyone pushes you nearer to God,he/she is your truest friend.

Spring runoff into Lake Minniwasta.This was in reality a small trickle.

Happy times and bygone days are never lost.. In truth, they grow more wonderful within the heart that keeps them.

Another angle of the small runoff into the lake.

God makes our lives a medley of joy and tears, hope and help, love and encouragement.

Calmness of the lake in the early morning.

How sweet the sound of friends laughing together, of sharing the joy of knowing each other so well.

God's way of saying goodnight.

 Closing thought:

How precious it is, Lord, to realize that You are thinking about me constantly!

I can't even count how many times a day Your thoughts turn towards me.

Psalm 139:17
