Ten



 








Today marks ten years since my Dad was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer. I have had many mixed feelings thinking about this - but this week, two things have been lodged in my mind:

It is Well
When peace like a river, attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say, "It is well, It is well with my soul!"
It is well, with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul.

Job 1:21b, "...The Lord gives and the Lord takes away; blessed be the name of the Lord."

 The bottom line is He is still good. And I will give thanks in that! The above photos are one per year from 2008-2018 as a celebration of the things we've enjoyed together during these ten years.
