Even though this set is titled "For the Graduate" and I really clung to this verse during my college years, it's a wonderful verse any time there is a tragedy or the future seems bleak. We went to a funeral last week and it was heartbreaking for the girls who lost their father. We know His timing is perfect and He has a beautiful plan but the pain is still there...and so is He.

So lovely Diana! I think it's such a perfect scripture of comfort and hope for Deborah and Rebekah.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful verse and your card is so beautiful. I love your choice of colours and the little foliage with the bow and flower. So sad to hear but praying that these girls may be comforted by our loving heavenly Father.
