The following is an article I wrote for our March church news letter. Enjoy!
Eight months! It has only been eight months since Natalie was born. Today she has two teeth showing, she is crawling none stop, she can pull herself up to a standing position, she is waving bye-bye, and the other day she actually said “Bye-Bye”. In eight month she has accomplished all of this and so much more. We have discovered that she is not a big fan of thunder and lightning. However, as soon as Mommy or Daddy picks her up she calms down and is able to sleep again.
How long have you known Jesus? How far has He brought you in that time? What are you able to do now that you were not able to do before knowing Jesus? In all that time there may be things that still spook you and make you shudder and the very thought of. Hopefully in the time you have known Jesus you have also learned that whenever the thunder roars and the lightning flashes you can climb into his arms and fall asleep again in the safety of His embrace.
How many storms has Jesus brought us all through? How many sunny days has Jesus helped us celebrate? How many more adventures does He have ahead of all of us? I’m not sure but I do know it will be exciting. We serve a Savior that refuses to be boring. Let us look with anticipation at what He has ahead for each and every one of us.
God Bless,
pastor chris
