This weekend

Well my husband is getting ready to leave on Thursday to go for his annual golf outing to Kentucky. This is a time that a bunch of guys go and play about 200 or more holes of golf in 4 days. They won't let any SHEILA'S go (per Mike O'Neill) from the very first year) and I wouldn't anyway, but I am already starting to miss Ed and he isn't gone yet. I know he is due for some time off, he worked really hard on my kitchen and it is beautiful and will be even more so when totally completed, but nonetheless, I am gonna miss him terribly. God is so good, He has brought us through so much and blessed us so much, at times it seems like the life we lived before was unreal. Was there another life before God? Oh how I wish my whole life would have been lived serving Him, to have known Him and walked with Him always. I envy those which have that testimony, not that their life was any easier, but knowing Him and always living for Him would have been awesome. But we can't do anything about the past, and we shouldn't dwell on the past, that is what the enemy would have us do. Thank God we are smarter than the devil, that God equipped us to fight of the enemy and to live a victorious life. I am reminded today how precious life is here, as a Christian sister passes on to be with Jesus, yet she is now in the presence of the Lord and that is what living this life is all about, to be with our Lord, to live eternally with Him. From one who knows, it is glorious to know your loved one is with the Lord, but it still hurts because we miss them so. Lord comfort and bless the family. I thank you Lord that you will never leave them or forsake them and that you will never put more on them than they can bear. You are faithful Lord and I pray your peace, rest, hope, love, joy, strength and comfort be with them in the days, weeks, months and years ahead. Thank you Lord for answered prayer!
