A few weeks ago, my friend Vanessa posted on Facebook that she 1. needed some adult conversation and 2. a person to pray with. I immediately responded to her that I was her gal! It took a few days, but we were able to visit and it was a pretty sweet one. I also wanted to see her one month old baby (picture below) so it was going to be great visit! She is so precious, I got to hold her about 3 times but she was a little fussy with me. I haven’t held a baby since my nephew was born May ‘08. We had some coffee, and I brought some Cinnabon coffee cake for us to eat. After we ate and caught up with stuff going on, we talked about our prayers which were to follow. We had a lot of requests, as well as praise to offer up to the Lord and believe where 2 or more are gathered in His name, there He is in our midst.
It’s such an incredible blessing to have a friend you can connect with in the spirit, it makes your friendship all the more sweet. I intended on sending her the above card I made shortly after our visit but I got a little busy and it never happened. I ended up hand delivering it on Thursday on another visit, but it was a surprise for her a few hours after I left—she discovered it left on her kitchen window sill. She messaged me later that evening with a thank you! I’m grateful for our friendship, Vanessa!!

Love your mojo sketch card Donna - the panels of DP are so pretty and love the coffee theme! How wonderful that you connected with someone who reached out and needed prayers!
Awww Donna, you are you such a sweetheart! That baby is simply adorable... ohhh how I love babies!! Great card and I'm sure she is soooo very blessed having you as a friend. BTW, thank you for linking me in your post of blogs yesterday. Wish we lived closer... how wonderful it would be to pray with you. HUGS!
Praise God for the amazing relationships that he provides for us. It makes my heart happy to read your story of two friends sharing time together in the presence of our Lord and Creator. Have a blessed day.
