A dear friend



This photo is of a very special friend whom I have mentioned throughout the past six months on here from time to time. She was diagnosed with cancer last summer and has been through chemo and just recently had surgery. I traveled to NY last week to keep her company during her recovery and it was a very encouraging time for us. Seeing her radiant smile reminds me of this favorite quote from Phil Ryken speaking on the biblical woman:

"A woman is made beautiful by what she DOES. True beauty comes from nurturing the inward woman. Women need to remember that if nature has made them plain, grace can make them beautiful, and if nature has made them beautiful, good deeds can add to their beauty."
