In one week a husband lost his mother and a wife lost her father. Wow. Life can be so harsh at times. The effects of the fall of man are overwhelming.

And just when the family thought they were out of the woods a set back send everyone into a tailspin.
The need for grace is seems greater everyday I live.
One family who so desires to adopt can't seem to make it work in spite of all their effort and another couple who has no problem creating children aborts a fetus because it is not the right gender.
The gospel is so necessary.
This week a young man, who professes Christ, seemed clueless as to the application of the gospel into every aspect of our lives. And I realized I have to help those who I shepherd see the gospel.

I find it amazing that the same chapter that describes the gospel is the same chapter that indicates without the gospel (and the hope it brings) we would be miserable.
I am ready for Christ to come.
Come Lord Jesus. Come Quickly.
