Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

To My Daughters

This includes my daughters-in-law (even tho Cheryl doesn't have any children.......YET! :)

Daughters of My Heart
You turned out even better
Than I often dreamed you’d be;
You’re more than I had hoped for;
You’re a sweet reward to me.
You grew up to be mothers
Full of wisdom, warmth and love,
Good and fine role models,
A blessing from above.
I couldn’t be any prouder
Than I am today of you;
You’re my daughters and my friends,
And wonderful persons, too.
You have my love forever;
I adored you from the start;
It’s a privilege to be your mother,
Dear daughters of my heart.
By Joanna Fuchs

I LOVE you ALL very much and wish we could be together today!
