Thankful Thursday - Sacrifice
I am grateful for the sacrifice Dave has made by choosing to marry me despite my prognosis. Having retirement stripped away by the housing market and having to get another job as a custodian. Sacrificing fishing and gardening to cook, do laundry and grocery shop on his weekends. Hustling me to doctor appointments in between everything else. That is sacrificial love.
I am grateful for the sacrifices of our armed forces, police forces, firemen, paramedics and border patrols. They sacrifice their lives to keep our country safe. That is sacrificial love.
I have chosen to go down a long and tough road with a full heart for my family and friends. I will never give up because God has remained by my side. His sacrifice is one I will never take for granted. He is my definition of sacrificial love.
HAVE A BEAUTIFUL EASTER

We all sacrifice for those we love. It is a sacrifice of joy and those who do not compromise their lives in some way or do not make a sacrifice are all alone in this world...so sad.
So precious, bless you.

You, too, dear friend! Easter is my favorite time of celebrating. It is what life is all about! Love you....
Because of Easter, we all can have hope. And you embody hope. Thank you for your unending example of faith and grace, no matter what your days hold. And Dave is absolutely a shining example of God showing himself here on earth. God bless you both during this precious season.
Jesus is my hero and so are you!
Happy Easter, Tammy! You always inspire me to try to do better.
