"...A Christian man has not always a bright shining sun.
He has seasons of darkness and of night...
Experience tells us that the course of the just
be as the shining light that shineth
more and more unto the perfect day,
yet sometimes that light is eclipsed.
At certain periods, clouds and darkness cover
the sun and he beholds no clear shining of the daylight,
but walks in darkness and sees no light ..."
~~~~~~~~~
"Surely if I were a child of God this would not happen."
Oh, say not so thou who are walking in darkness.
The best of God's saints have their nights.
The dearest of His children have to walk through a weary wilderness.
There is not a Christian who has enjoyed perpetual happiness."

Hi Ortegas! We've been looking for some new posts around here for some time now...:-)
Miss you all so much!

Tara . . . Sweet Tara . . . we are still here - really!! Actually we would enjoy being stormed by comments :0)
It is nice to know someone noticed our blog demise - the busyness of life got the better of us - we will try to post something next week - perhaps some photos for your viewing pleasure :)
We look so forward to seeing you all soon, in just a couple of weeks now! Yeah!!
