My journey
This is day 2 of my blogging. I'm trying to keep a diary of how God has been working in my life. So far, this week my thoughts have been on a special lady God put in my life; how just knowing her for "3" three months (before she went home to be with the Lord,) and my desire to learn about plants and gardening, I have discovered God is STILL HEALING ME!
The number 3, has been very significant to me in my life when I discovered God gets my attention in sequences of three's. This week my threes are: I haven't been able to sleep and my thoughts have been with my friend who I knew for only 3 months. I met her at a plant sale. She was dying of rectal cancer and was due to have surgery. Then came a hurricane which devestated the area.......My husband Bill, and I went searching for her one day and we could not remember how to get to her street, nor could we remember the name of her street. In October of 2005, there was a newspaper article about her and "Her Dying Wish". My husband layed the paper on the coffee table, I said "honey, the plant lady"! Well Bill gets out the area map and tells me how to get there, (I have no sense of direction). I show up at her house, introduce myself, she didn't remember me from the plant sale. That was ok, because I felt it was my mission-calling to help her in her last days. I was going to run her sweeper, do her laundry, and whatever else this woman needed from me. I had the wonderful blessing from God, of knowing this woman for 3 months.....
I'm learning to journal my thoughts . I am very nervous. Hopefully soon, I will figure out how to complete a sentence without "needing" to write it "right/perfect.

Well done Sandi!Got your blog through Khadija,
A very rewarding experience and yes God is with us all the time. May you keep on bloging.
Gosh trabilsia, thanks. I have so much to say in my journey with this remarkable woman and what I have learned from her, and find it difficult to put it all on paper. Thanks again for the encouragement. Sandi
thank you Sandi for visiting my blog. it was too good to read about your experience, may God always be with you.
I want to say thank you to trabilsia and anglolibyan for visiting my blog and encouragement again. I'm still re-couping from this "bug" and taking things very slowly, such as housework......I am now trying to clean my house after being sick for 3 weeks. And need to mention, my wonderful husband, Bill has been pampering me and watching me like a hawk to make sure I don't over do it. When I felt better the first week of being sick, I went outside to check on my flowers; caught up on laundry, and cleaned house, only to be back down for another 2 weeks. Sandi
