God doesn't give you the people you want, he gives you the people you need, to help you, to lead you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be.
Wow, that means a lot to me, shelia. Here's one I keep with me: 'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' God bless you, Margaret p.S. Love the Celtic cross etched in black against the sky.
I am a Texan, born in Arkansas and reared in Oklahoma. I have a masters degree in education and I taught elementary school for thirty-seven years. My husband, a retired high school principal, and I live in a quaint, tree-lined historical district near a university. I love to collect things. My collections include teapots, Waterford crystal, shoes, and costume jewelry. My most prized collection would be my Louis Icart prints.
We have two grown children, and three perfect grandsons.
