I have always thought of my experience as more than just the widow experience, but also the whole care-giving scenario of seeing my husband decline step by step and the helpless feelings. Yet the thought of seven being the number of perfection and completion is an exciting thought!

But to read that you're looking at the big picture helps me understand why, and now I see it's not only 2.5, it's been seven years today. What a wonderful day to proclaim God's goodness and how He you have learned so much 'through it all!' Another thing I noticed was that it's now seven years. And I'm not one to condone any sort of numerology except that the Lord wants us to learn to number our days and draw wisdom from them (which is what you do in a glorious way). But seven is a very special and significant number in God's Word, a number of God's perfection and completion. So as He blessed the seventh day and made it holy, may you continue to see the blessing, holiness, and perfect plan of this seventh year. *Ferree Bowman Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739485535852107104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-237582707073403341.post-74424913495112242632013-07-01T13:27:27.326-07:002013-07-01T13:27:27.326-07:00Thank you, Jan.

The one that runs through my mind often is:<br /><br />It will be worth it all,<br />when we see Jesus.<br />Life's trials will seem so small<br />when we see Christ.<br />One glimpse of His dear face,<br />all sorrow He'll erase.<br />So bravely run the race,<br />til we see Christ!<br /><br />I'm still reading backwards and praying about that book!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
