She can't remember when the streets were last lit up at night and a whole bar of chocolate is a distant, wonderful memory. But mostly, this dark war took her Father away to fight far away in France. She misses him deeply, but her light in all this darkness is her maternal Grandfather, who tells her wonderful stories of his adventures on his flying bicycle in the night sky, where he'd clean the stars and stop by on the moon for a rest. But now she was 8 she began to wonder if his stories could possibly be true. One night she decides to follow him down town and find out for herself. What follows is a magical adventure, where she discovers the truly wonderful, important and eternal secrets the stars hold, but also of the sadness of bullying and the deep sorrows that war can bring. In all of the darkness can she possibly keep the secrets of the stars to herself?
II II Virginia and I accidentally ran into each other at the Christian school we were attending. As I glanced into her crystal-blue eyes, she captured my heart. She had a radiance that made her stand out from all the other girls. I had been praying the Lord would bring a lady into my life who would be a perfect mate. As our eyes met, I knew the Lord had answered my prayer. I just met my future wife. I later learned she was orphaned by the age of seven. A grandmother took her to Florida. One brother, just thirteen, went to Oklahoma with their oldest brother. That did not work out, and Herb was taken in by the Cook family even though he was a total stranger. A year later, Virginia was permitted to join her brother Cliff, and Lois assumed full responsibility for the two siblings. Finally, seven years later, they adopted Herb and Virginia. Never once did Virginia speak unkindly of the grandmother and everything that happened for all had been forgiven. I was not the easiest boy to date and thus, we had a rocky courtship. The Lord performed a transformation within that totally changed me. It was then she was able to tell me yes to my proposal ten months earlier. And our marriage was absolutely fantastic. Virginia knew I wanted to write about her life, and she told me there was nothing special to tell. In reality there is a lot to tell. She walked closely with the Lord for decades and her life was one of God's grace and unconditional love. That was true in every area of her life and ministry. The Cooks also demonstrated God's love as they initially welcomed Herb and then Virginia into their home and lives. 16 16 15 15
