Husband: John, 24 years later he is still God's gift to me.   

Children: I love, love, love my adult children. They bless me, encourage me, hold me accountable and teach me things that make my life better and cause me to be a more effective woman of God. (All of my children are adults by the way.)  

Friends: Most of us don't have many. Some of us would like to have one really good one. Few of us have so many that we don't know which friend to have lunch with next. Yet all of us can have one that sticks closer than a brother (or sister): Jesus.  

Other Women: Every woman has a ministry she can either soar in or totally turn away from; that would be the ministry we have toward other women. We need each other -- today and in the days to come.  

Men - Other Than Your Husband: Be kind but draw the line at Jesus. He will not lead you into an unhealthy relationship. 

God: Awesome, wonderful, almighty, LORD.
