Day 50

Woohoo! I am half way there. God is so good! I could not have made it this far without him. I only have fifty more days to go. I think the last half will go by quicker than the first half. Sort of like a road trip. I was one of those children that asked their parents if we were almost there yet about every half hour. I am sure on those long drives to Kansas I must have drove my Mom and Dad nuts.

I wonder how many times God has had to hear from his Children "are we almost there yet"? I have often thought about all the questions he has been asked and all horrible things he has seen people do since the beginning of  time. I think about the few things I see in the media and feel horrified ,but he see's ALL. It is still amazing to me how much we have grieved him yet he still loved us so much that he sent his one and only son to earth to die on the cross for our sins so that we could  spend eternity with him once we repent, accept him in our hearts and surrender our lives over to him. Our part that the Lord asks us to do is so small compared to what he did for us. Yet we continue to hang on to things and make our lives more difficult than they have to be. He wants us to just LET GO! It is funny how two very small words can have such a huge impact on our lives.

I managed to get my things done fairly early tonight so I could spend some time hanging out with my fun-loving husband. The first thing I started off with was yard work again , but my eyes did not adapt so well to the dark tonight for some reason. I think I need to eat more carrots. I practiced the piano and my Spanish. I read my two books .The one I am reading by David Jeremiah " What in the world is going on ?" is a really fascinating book. I worked on algebra and I listened to another ten minutes of an old lecture on the course I never finished. The rest of my things revolved around organizing.


This is what the LORD says: "Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. Where is the house you will build for me? Where will my resting place be? Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?" declares the LORD. " This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word.    ISAIAH 65: 1-2
