Life is yours, that you may have a season and an opportunity to prepare for the life of heaven; and death is yours, that you may go to the possession of it. It is the kind messenger to take you from sin and sorrow, and to guide you to your Father's house.
Things present are yours, for your support on the road; things to come are yours, to delight you for ever at your journey's end. If we belong to Christ, and are true to him, all good belongs to us and is sure to us. Believers are the subjects of his kingdom. He is Lord over us, we must own his dominion, and cheerfully submit to his command.
~Matthew Henry commenting on 1 Corinthians 3~
Life has taken some crazy turns over the last few weeks and months but God is still in command. I cannot begin to update concerning the happenings of October in one post. Updates will follow.
I wasn't sure what to say when I saw you guys a few days ago, it was so good to see your faces.... I kind of wanted to tell you that I think I'll never forget your mothers service. There are some things people say, certain events, and stories I hear that the Lord brings to the front of my mind to teach me things and to help me make decisions. Her story, and the things that were said last week will be some of those things. But it wasn't just last week, her walk with God was clear to me just from knowing Ross and seeing his choice for a Bride... I'm so thankful to be a part of your lives.
