God is Good

Do you ever have one of those days where you just step back at the end of the day and think....
Wow!  God is so good!

Yesterday was rough for Wes and I.   We are pretty sure one of our vehicles may be done in a few weeks, our kitchen tap started leaking, and then we had some water damage that went through the roof from the bathroom.

It was one of those days.

But, then God reminded me of his goodness.

One of the songs that we played on worship team was this:

Hallelujah You have won the victory 

Hallelujah You have won it all for me 

'Cuz death could not hold you down 

You are the risen King 

Seated in majesty 

You are the risen King

So often I find myself worrying about the things of this earth, 

but God has already won the victory and He is good, faithful and just.  

He will never leave me or forsake me. 

What an amazing promise that is. 

We spent the day with family, and just relaxing. 

We are all safe, healthy and alive. 

And for that I am thankful. 

God will take care of us, 

His love is truly amazing and He shows his goodness in mysterious ways.  

If you- like me- have one of those days where you think one more thing can't go wrong

take a step back and look at all the amazing things God is doing around you.

Peyton, 

I want you to know how special you are to Daddy and I. 

We pray that you will continue to seek God in everything that you do, 

and come to know him as your personal Lord. 

You are going to move mountains, 

and we are so glad that we get to be a part of your life to see that. 

Love, 

Mommy
