  Lavender Delight LAVENDER DELIGHT: AN OIL PAINTING | Laveda D. Rockford Lavender Delight is a beautiful interpretation of Good Friday.

  LAVENDER DELIGHT UPDATE | Laveda D. Rockford I know that some of you are dealing with a lot of difficult situations, as I am also, but we continue living as best that we can. Never think that you are alone, we serve a good God, and He is with us no matter what happens to us or happens around us. Gods love is designed for you and me.
