A WARM GLOW

Tonight as Steve, Josiah & I walked into church; I noticed a candle was glowing, next to it a 5x7 picture of our Pastors, Ben & Minn, Holding Elijah during his dedication prayer - at my hospital bedside at 5:00a.m. July 9th.

I was somewhat surprised. I knew mom was gonna take a candle[I thought she was gonna put it at her table]. Mom wasn't even there yet. As time got closer to starting bible study church began to fill. I noticed another and then another and another lady taking a candle up to the front and lighting it.

At exactly 7:00 p.m the table was all a glow. Cindy walked up to me and hugged me so tight and said, "I called all the ladies, to bring a candle & remember Elijah"

*Cindy - you did it again :) love ya friend*

I kept wishing I could have gotten a picture, of how serene the table looked.

*funny thing*
(THE NOT SO GOOD THING WAS... everyone brought scented candles [various different scents] OH MAN WERE THE ALLERGIES KICKEN TONIGHT!!!

Thanks Momma for the card!! It was so precious!!

{ALL OF YOU WHO LIT A CANDLE, I THANK YOU & FOR COMMENTING TOO)
