Lamentations 3:22-24

Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; 
therefore I will wait for him."

I am so thankful that God has given us the perfect verses for every occasion in our lives!

This morning I needed this promise!

I hear the birds chirping outside and the sun is brightly shining!

I love that our imperfect yesterdays can be erased and that God is with us in our todays.

And even more than that I love that even the best day here can never compare to what awaits us in eternity.

I told Tim yesterday morning that even though I miss Erich and Evan it is so neat to hear how much fun they are having where they are, and I am so thankful that they are enjoying their lives right now.

I have got to keep that same spirit about Nick's absence from us.  If I received a phone call from Nick telling me how amazing Heaven is, I know that I would never want him back here in this world of temptation and often difficult situations.  So, this is where faith has to step in and be my Rock.

Hebrews 11:1-2

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.

So for today, my prayer is that each of you will allow God to erase your mistakes from your yesterdays and bless your todays, trusting that at the very same time He is preparing an eternal Home for you that will be greater than your greatest moment while on this earth.

Thank you for sharing my ups, downs, and everything in between...

Oh, and in case you forgot...

We still have four sweet kittens that are hoping for wonderful homes soon!!   :)
