Sunday afternoon, I ran into a sweet couple from Church. It was nice to be able to talk with them for a few minutes. During the course of our conversation, we agreed, in so many ways it seems we have almost lost a year of our lives due to the virus and all the "stuff" the past few months. It has been difficult, strange and trying as we have been shut in, shut out, we've lost so many, and had to deal with a variety of things, I don't think I could have ever imagined. But I still have so much to be thankful for. I woke up this morning, opened my eyes, got out of bed. I'm sitting here in my comfy chair, drinking coffee and watching the night to turn to day as I write my thoughts. I can not help but think, while there have been so many bad things that we have gone through, many also have been so good!
I am ashamed of the many times I have fussed or complained about my challenges or difficulties. Others have gone through so much worse. And then there is Jesus! My precious Savior, lived a perfect sinless life, but was willing to endure humiliation, suffer pain that can not be imagined, shed His blood and die for me! And as He said He would, He rose again and went to prepare a place for me that where He is I can be also.
I realize life is and will be challenging but we have a sweet promise, "Heaven Will Surely Be Worth It All". I pray you will be blessed hearing The Whisnants today!
I hope your Tuesday will be great!
