...put me in a good mood. lol.
I've been wanting to update many times the last few days but there are so many words floating around in my head that I don't know which ones are even worth writing about. So here is a question for you....why is the right thing to do always the hardest thing to do? or at least it seems that way. I have so many questions to ask but they all start with "why?" so instead I'll just keep ignoring them. lol. I don't know "why" its this way, but when there are so many things I'm thinking about its very hard for me to write. They all start mixing together and then it doesn't make sense even to me. I've tried to write poems the last few days and nothing that I would ever let anyone read has come. I've been happy though. I've been feeling so much peace. You know that feeling when you are just SO thankful its just overwhelming? Our God is SO good! And He has the whole world in His hands. He knew from the beginning of time that He was going to save me! He knew that He would take Faith Brown from the pit of death and bring Her with Him to life forever. This life gets hard and this world brings so much pain but His goodness and glory and grace just makes it all so much better. And you know what? This is not my home! And I don't have the power to save people! Only God can. It brings so much sorrow to see those I love either not believing or maybe they believe but they don't have the same comfort I have just because of how they believe. BUT I CAN'T MAKE THEM! HIS WILL WILL BE DONE! I'm so blessed. God has blessed me with so many amazing people in my life! If you are reading this then you are one of those people that I daily thank God for you! and thats not enough either. Oh and you know what else?? I"M GOING TO BE AN AUNT TWICE THIS YEAR! yes! One of my AMAZING sisters in Christ is going to have a baby :) :) :) :) :)! and My sister, Hannah, is due in less than Two months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE LITTLE KIDS! Especially the ones at my church :)

And I'll try to update more later

"I am in this house of pilgrimage every way in good case; Christ is most kind and loving to my soul: it pleaseth Him to feast with His unseen consolations a stranger, and an exiled prisoner: and I would not exchange my Lord Jesus, with all the comfort out of heaven; His yoke is easy, and His burden light. This is His truth I now suffer for; for he hath sealed it with His blessed presence." -from Samuel Rutherford's beautiful little book "The Loveliness of Christ"
Yes our God is so good! He uses those hard times and difficult challenges to help us to see how truly He is to be treasured above all the glittering fancies of this world! And to prepare us for our real home that is infinitely better than this one. We are just pilgrims here... Keep pressing on!! :) Love you.
THANK YOU so much Katherine! you are very wise and so encouraging!
i've been feeling overwhelmed by the grace of God recently as well...our God is so awesome I can't even begin to put it into words. how amazing is it that the one and only holy and just God would actually look upon me, a wretched sinner, and forgive me of my sins through the blood of Christ, and make me not only His servant, but His daughter!! To God be the glory!
