Comfort

He will make your innocence as clear as the dawn
and the justice of your cause shine like the noonday sun. Psalm 37:6

  4. Hi Betsy, what an inspiring quote and picture. I have come to know you through Bach's and Willow's blogs - and have visited many times without leaving a comment. I have enjoyed the recipes, the birds and the flowers that you have posted about but my real wish is to let you know how much I admire you.

    Your attitude and fortitude in dealing with the daily challenges you face is inspiring. My degree is in music education and for a very long while I was going to work with autistic children using music as a means of communication, which, as I am sure you know, helps in their development.

    Ultimately, my focus changed to one of performing but I have never forgotten what it was like to work with some of these special children and how the gift of music can affect all of us in so many ways.

    I think the words in this psalm are particularly appropriate "justice of your cause" as I know, from reading your blog for many months, it is one you hold near and dear.

    I wish you all the best with your five men and please know that three of them hold an extra special place in my heart.

    Hope you and your family have a wonderful Sunday.

They brought tears to my eyes and some encouragement to my heart, which I needed today. I knew who you were but didn't know that you visited, so thanks for commenting. Your background in music education is interesting! My boys love music!
