It is very important to Pat and I that those who are reading our blog, KNOW that GOD is not working this out specifically for us becuase of anything we have done. We are not better Christians, we are not without fault, doubt, sin. We all serve the same God.
My hope is that you have found Him and can call Him your own. You see when I first started this blog a friend asked me, why, why make it public? It is fairly private stuff. TRUE. However, my heart is, if one person can see God through this, can know him, find him then all the better. I don't care what it looks like, what I have said. If the transparency you see here you will help you to see God, will give you a glance into the life of a believer to compare your life. To see what it looks like, the things we struggle with, then its ALL TO HIS GLORY! We all struggle with doubt and honestly have rotten things happen to us. I know my life has been FILLED, FILLED to the BRIM with things that horror movies are made of. However, I am a daughter of the most high. My life HAS BEEN REDEEMED. Yours can be too.
At Christmas time I got the most beautiful picture and newsletter of their family. On the back of the letter was a note...I have copied it here. I hope you enjoy it and if you have not yet called him Father, I pray you will. If you want to talk, pray, whatever you need...get a hold of me by text, email, phone...
