Last night we had a special lasagna dinner for our 12 year old daughter Elizabeth. She finished primary school and is about to enter high school so we gave her a special necklace also. Elizabeth will be leaving in a week or two for Spain to walk the 6 week pilgrimage trail in Spain.
She wrote a poem/prayer yesterday:
“i’m going on a pilgrimage
so give me strength and give me hope
and lead me when i get lost
hold me when i get tired
push me when i get useless
and grab me when i almost fall
give me strength and give me hope
that i’ll make it OK.”
Great poem, Elizabeth.
i see the poet gene runs in the family – you must be so proud of her!
she will be in my prayers as she walks – will she be posting updates anywhere??
she’s got strength and beauty in her and Christ just loves to be with her! Praying for her and am thankful to learn from her.
