Thank you for your kind words. I remember those days the real storm clouds blotted out the sun and I railed at everything all day just because I could not comprehend the glorious bright sunshine, beautiful flowers that would flourish because of the rain left behind. I was recently listening to a TV sermon before I headed to worship at my church. The minister/pastor sad, " Remember in the 23rd Psalm that God said, "Though you walk thru the valley of the death, I will be with you and give you comfort"." He did not promise carry you or me just help us find our way. I remember memorizing this as a child, but the impact of the words only became important about 6 decades later.
