About Our Family

"For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, 'Abba, Father.' The Spirit testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs - heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory." Romans 8:14-17

This Path

I heard this song yesterday.  I immediately melted into tears because I felt like I was hearing my own words put to music.  This describes so beautifully the way I feel about the challenge that I'm facing right now....


A million miles away from anything familiar
A thousand places I would rather be
So I choke back the tears and try to find the bright side
Though I find it hard to see beyond my suffering
In my heart I know your plan is so much bigger
But this small part is all that I can see
And I believe you haven't left me here to wander
Still I can't help but ponder where you're leading me
(Chorus)
And I ask why this road
Why this way
And this load
Tell me how far must I go
Till I see
Till I know
Why this road
A million miles away from anything familiar
What was it like to be so far from home
Though you came in love
The world misunderstood you
There must have been some days when you felt so alone
But you endured, cause there was joy before you
Joy that came because you sacrificed
Since you gave yourself just to spend forever with me
Surely I can trust you'll lead me through my darkest times
When I ask why....(Chorus)
From here I can not see
Why you'd choose this path for me
But I don't have to understand to believe
That you know why
You know why this road
Why this way
And this load
You know how far I must go
Till I see
Till I know
Why this road

    God is light and life and love. He did not plan for any of us to be sick, ever. Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy. We live in a fallen world, so we suffer, and all of creation suffers. True, God created Satan, evidently with a free will, and I don't understand all of that, but I really believe that we are part of His plan to overcome evil, sickness, and death, forever!
