Friendships across the Miles

It is poignant to think
about the fact that God said it was
not good for Man to be alone...so He
created Eve for Adam.

Man was created to communicate with
God and others.

We are social creatures.

With the advent of the computer we can
often communicate with those we never
would have had opportunity to get to
know otherwise. Sometimes this is good...
other times we should proceed with
caution.

I have made some forever friends through
this tiny little blog that I call
Hospitality Lane. There are women who
have reached out and shared my pain,
rejoiced when I rejoiced and let me help
to carry a prayer burden, or two.

This is a new face of friendship.

My local friends are still
very important to me.
I need them.
This cannot replace them.

However, this is a new dimension of
friendship. I am thankful for it.
I am thankful for YOU!

One of these "distant" friends
is a talented stitcher.
Some months ago Paula sent
me this sweet art.


This week I received something
in the mail...


So timely as we are putting the
finishing touches on the Ladies
Christmas Tea at our church.

I love the teapot and the fancy
tablecloth... so carefully
stitched in teeny tiny stitches.

Thank you, Miss Paula.

You are one of those Forever
Friends....

Having just completed the contest and giveaway,
meeting some new friends, and perusing
blogger yesterday for those who also had
Flywheel in their list of favorite movies,

(I know it seems a strange way to search, but you
really can tell a lot about a person by the movies
they enjoy!)

I can see I have a lot more potential friendships
to cultivate out there.

Fun!!!!

I hope your list of bloggy friends grows and that
out of this list come some that you can share with
and grow with. Some who lift you up in prayer as
needed and laugh or rejoice with you in the good
times.
