we've also been hosting company!
(My grandma, my aunt, and my uncle!)
Their visit got me thinking about
things so I wanted to write it down!
Anyways, there is this life
NO ONE wants to live.
It's the life of pain, suffering,
sacrifice, poverty, and sadness.
Unfortunately, more people than not
have to live through this kind of life.
I'm sure you have seen this, or maybe
even had to live it.
People are suffering and
here I am living this life
that's GREAT in comparison.
I know some of you have gone through alot.
Maybe God even led you to this
post today because you feel
you are in need. I understand.
Today millions of people
are suffering. It can be little
things or it could be a big deal.
When we follow God sometimes
life can get crazy. I know that
is probrably not what you want to hear,
but in the end God has a huge
gift for us for being his follower.
An eternal life with no more suffering!
Sometimes we think it would be great
if we had an easy life doing whatever we want,
but then we wouldn't need God, we'd go
do what we see is right in our own eyes!
We all have to suffer. There is
going to be a point in life when
troubles will come upon us.
In the end that's not going
to matter. Think about it......
we'll be in heaven!!!!
The suffering will be gone!
I don't know who wrote this,
but it's pretty great...
"For non-christians earth is
the only heaven they will experience,
but for us earth is the only hell we will
ever experience."
Isn't that so true?
If your going through something
I would be happy to pray.
I should get going.
(God bless!)

Rose - you made me cry. I think your Mama needed to read this post more than anyone else.
I LOVE you.
Wow! What a beautiful post. I'll take you up on your offer to pray. Will you pray for me?? We are waiting to be matched with a baby. (We were inspired to adopt an African American baby when you guys were getting Kai.) We have been waiting for over 3 months now and I'm going crazy with trusting God for His timing! I felt like something might happen in October, but October is almost over and nothing is happening! (That I can see!) Pray as you feel led! I'd like a baby NOW, but I probably need PEACE more than anything! Thanks, Rose! :-)
June.... I would love to pray for you! That;s amazing that your adopting. God will bring you this baby.Maybe in october and maybe not. But if you trust him that baby will be with you.I know how it feels to wait. It drove me insane when we stayed in paradise for a month thinking it would only take a week waiting for kai. I am SOOOOOO happy for you! -Praying for you,
Rose
