My sweet walking buddy, Ms. Evelyn, has lost both of her daughters to cancer, and also her husband. We had almost finished our walk one morning last week and she wanted me to listen to a song her granddaughter had downloaded for her. I'd never heard it before, but did recognize the singer as Mr. Alan Jackson. I told her that this song was meant just for her. She said that she's finally able to listen to it without crying. This precious lady is what I call a "Spiritual Mother".....
an older lady that God places in our lives to fill a void that we might not even be aware we needed filled, but most often we know exactly why they are there!
Almost every time we walk, our conversation always involves our precious Lord and Savior!

HOPE your SONday is full of blessings!
Breathing in Grace,
This touches me. Thanks and may you have a blessed sunday.
ReplyDeleteIt was such a special song to my friend.....she's the same age of my own Mother and has been such a huge blessing in my life. HOPE your day is blessed, too, sweet Lady!
DeleteGood Sunday Morning. What a beautiful song. I love to hear A. Jackson and I have not heard this song before. I know the song brings comfort to your friend/walking partner. I hope you have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge fan of country music, but I do like Mr. Alan Jackson, especially when he sings gospel. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment, Ms. Mildred.
DeleteThank You Deb....I just left a comment on another blog who had a Christian song on there as well...I am deeply troubled by some things and this brings comfort, thank you sweet friend. Have a beautiful SONday. Blessings
ReplyDeleteI read your blog post today and know you are troubled. I'm so sorry.....please know you have blogging friends who are praying for you, sweet Lady.
DeleteSuch a sweet song. I pray that your walks together bring her comfort.
ReplyDeleteI think they do, Ms. Melanie....but I'm helped probably much more than her!!! She's a very kind, Christian lady.
DeleteAlan Jackson is one of my favorites and this song is just lovely. Blessings for your friend who has lost so many but keeps her faith! Happy SONday to you, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI love to hear him sing gospel music. I believe he's a good man! I know you're probably dreading going back to work tomorrow....just take all those sweet memories with you!
DeleteBeautiful song Deb. I think it's wonderful that she has you to talk to and share things with...I know you are a great comfort to her.
ReplyDeleteShe's a real blessing to me, too, Ms. Mary. She's so precious.
