Not so long ago...

As a new email this morning reminded me - "Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
(2 Cor. 12:8-10 NIV)

A moment to remember, and share, God’s provision. I felt very strongly that this visit with my parents in August was an important time to get professional pictures taken. It was August 26th when they were taken. Merlyn was hospitalized on September 8, and now we have my dad’s health taking a turn.

Here’s a picture from only a month and a half ago, really. Life is not how society says. We can’t live that way! Cherish each moment, and each person in your life, and remember that God with us, and His power is made perfect is our weakness.
