It’s been a while since I added anything here. Health issues are mostly to blame. I’m doing much better. It can be very challenging to want to do anything when feeling lousy. So many projects got left way back on the back burner. Now it’s a matter of trying to figure out where I was, where I am, and where I want to go. I’ve had plenty of time to think about the transitoriness of life generally and how fragile our existence really is. It is a very sobering experience.
Throughout my journey of these past couple of years I have felt God’s presence and loving care of me. I am so grateful. There were several things that I felt he showed me. Firstly, I was not alone. Jesus was with me, and would never leave me nor forsake me. Secondly, that he was carrying the bulk of my pain. I didn’t have to bear it by myself. Jesus is the true burden bearer. Phew, this has proved to be a real comfort and encouragement, and continues to be so. Thirdly, I am loved. And, nothing can change that. How wonderful!
So, there we are. We have hope because Jesus came as a human baby, lived a human life, and died to save us. Then marvelously he rose again shattering all the limitations that have keep us from being all we can be.
Life continues. Blessings this Christmas time.
