Saija the Scarf Sister Who Lives in my Beloved Manitoba

out to the west of here lives a lovely lady named saija...now she lives in my beloved manitoba...a few years ago, bernie and i had the privilege of winding our way  along the flat highway to meet saija and her husband leo in her manitoba home...we were so glad to see her!...in this picture you see the blue and golden fields that spread the manitoba province.....almost as beautiful as saija, eh?

i swiped this from saija's blog and what a verse it is and how she surely lives up to it!....although she is so far away, we sisters often hear words of wisdom from her in our email and so many times she sends us sweet pictures of cats and dogs and many other scenes of god's nature....

yes indeed saija....these words speak volumes!...without the coming of the lord on our horizon, how absence of hope would we surely have!.....love terry

god bless you saija in your little corner of the world, flat though it may be!...love terry

Love your portraying Saija and sharing her tidbits. So very beautiful about my Finnish-American sister.
"A person with a changed heart seeks praise from God, not from people."
Let´s have the same focus and the same aim, even though we come from "The ends of the earth" as Kipling puts it.

as sweet as ever, that is you terry ... thank you for cheering my heart today - sometimes we forget our own words - so it was most excellent that I reread them today ... GOD is always on time in His care for His children! (hugs)
