I think the sorrow is mixed with feelings of abandonment.<br /><br />The promise that my Heavenly Father will never leave me provides so much comfort. I sense your pain here too, and I pray for healing... in us both :)Michele-Lyn https://www.blogger.com/profile/06586393878379789925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688422282686268098.post-53665451766653148412012-04-13T14:15:33.794-04:002012-04-13T14:15:33.794-04:00"And maybe the value in that is worth the pri..."And maybe the value in that is worth the price of all those good-byes." Well said, Baby! Our lives have truly been made up of going and coming....and saying good-bye to someone all the time. I believe, too, we have developed an appreciation for even those little times when we can all be together. We have learned to make them special. I love you and see you soon! Though another good-bye will be just around the corner, those few days will be sweet!Beverly Brumbleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688422282686268098.post-78180937277890688792012-04-13T12:24:34.308-04:002012-04-13T12:24:34.308-04:00Oh the feeling was truly hard to describe!

For me, the Gene...I can definitely say I hear ya... For me, the General Assembly of my Church (I go to Nazarene Church here in Ukraine) is the "preview of upcoming attractions" because last time I've been there I got a chance to see so many friends of mine... And it was fun to realize that I knew more people there than my friends from the US - because so many people have visited Ukraine either for a short period of time or a few years...Zee Kleshcharhttp://www.zenichka.com/noreply@blogger.com
