it's the monday after spring break...sure is quiet around here! wyatt's napping, getting ready for therapy later. i'm trying to figure out what to do first....probably getting off the computer would be a good start! oh well...we had a great spring break; i'm glad everyone is back home together. ethan had a terrific trip, and as much as i want to blog about him today, i'm waiting until his birthday next week. i think 11 days is too long to focus on how much he's grown up lately...
there's been lots of sadness lately. teens dying way too young from car accidents. car accidents in general. folks facing cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. folks struggling with their faith. depression. so much pain, heartache, confusion....
BUT i do know this: God is in control. He is good all the time, not just when things go my way. He loves me unconditionally; no matter what i do. i can't "earn" His love...it is freely given. Jesus paid the price for my sins so that i am forgiven....PRAISE GOD! i do not live a "works based" faith....i am forgiven and have the security of my salvation ONLY BECAUSE OF JESUS! how wonderful that we just celebrated Easter....remembering what He did for us; how much He loves us; the sacrifice He made for us....that no one else could! Because HE Lives....i CAN face tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after.....blessings to you!
Awesome post!
