How It All Started

Kissing Beautiful Cheeks

This precious lady passed away today. *sigh* She was a lot older than I thought and fighting a prolonged battle against cancer. She was from a French-speaking African country and spoke very little English. Tatum - our 17 year old daughter - took 2 years of French in high school, so I scrambled to learn a few simple, encouraging phrases to surprise her with each day. I made sure to hug her, kiss her on the cheeks and tell her how BEAUTIFUL she was every day!
It was made clear to me that she knew Jesus....so NOW she is healthy and whole and filled with JOY! I get to see her again. And there will be no language barrier. It makes me smile to know that Jesus is hugging her and kissing her cheeks...and telling her how BEAUTIFUL she is!!
