Hello, my dear friends!...Do you remember me? It's been a while since I've posted...and a while since I've visited any of you, as well! I have been out of commission for a little while! Spring has always been the most difficult season for my migraines, and this Spring seems to be packing a wallop! I know that I won't be able to go back and catch up on all that I missed but I am hoping to jump in soon and start again! A big thank you to those of you who have checked up on me! I've really appreciated your concern! Hopefully the worst of it is over! :o)
It was so wonderful to be creating something again! I decided to do something "vintage-y" (is that a word? lol ) My original page was rather dark looking but this hymn and verse are so full of hope that I had to brighten it up a little bit! So I swapped in the cream cardstock and thought that did the job nicely!
Now, you probably knew without me saying it but both this hymn and Scripture verse are my FAVORITE! ;o)We sing the hymn quite often in church, and it's such a beautiful one. The third verse is my favorite and was the inspiration for my page. I wrote it out in the center but please click on the picture so you can actually read it! As for the Scripture verse...it was one that I memorized when I was a child and has always been very meaningful to me. What a comfort and a joy to know that NOTHING anywhere will EVER separate us from the INCREDIBLE love of God we have through Christ Jesus our Lord! :o)

When I got to this place in my post I headed over to YouTube to find a video. I just knew this was the one as soon as I saw/heard it! It's so full of goodness: gorgeous voices and old school harmony, the lyrics, amazing photos, and it ends with the Scripture verses I used. I think it was made to order. I hope you enjoy it! :o)

Nancy...So good to have you back...and with such a lovely page! It's just beautiful! It's just not fair that such a beautiful season can be so hard on us, huh. I do pray that the worst is, in fact, over for you! Have a great day, my friend!
Nancy, I was just thinking...where is my buddy? I am so glad you are back. I pray that you feel better and can find some joy in this season. Your page is lovely! ((HUGS))

I love the melody of that hymn. :-) Your page is beautiful as they always are. :-)
Well my girl, I'm so sorry I didn't check on you. It never crossed my mind that you might be ill, only busy with family and maybe some crafty surprises. I hope you are feeling much better now. It's wonderful to have you back with us. I'm sure that several of us will agree that you are a ray of sunshine in our daily lives.
Huge Hugs!
