Cold, Rain and Gloom

Tomorrow will mark 40 days since Annie went to heaven. Forty days and forty nights. And although we're happy for her, we're not so happy for us. How appropriate that this past month is one of the coldest, rainiest and gloomiest on record...it certainly matches the mood around here.

Just slogging through it.

Jean

What joy for those whose strength comes from the Lord,
who have set their minds on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
When they walk through the Valley of Weeping,
it will become a place of refreshing springs.
The autumn rains will clothe it with blessings.
They go from strength to strength--
each of them appears before God in Zion. Psalm 84:5-7
