An Awesome Spring Break?

Going into spring break I was worried. I had plans for this spring break, plans that where changed after the event that took place on February. 7th at 10:55 AM. Somehow, I am not mad, sad yes not mad.

I have spent the bulk of my time cleaning house, watching TV, and watching Dad sleep while trying to watch TV with dad when he gets home from work. Not at all what I had planed back in December. My original plans where to spend much needed time with Mom. She had not been well so I wanted to spend time with her. Nothing special just have lunch with her and talk. We would also watch a rerun of a show she had seen so many times before, but this is what her time was consumed with now that her freedom had been taken from her do to sickness.

Spring break 08 mom is loving Jesus and not in some boring way that we do she is loving Jesus, in that give him an actual hug sort of way. Her pain and sorrow melted away by His glory. her eyes clear once more. She is restored. What is all the better is that this will never ever end. This is endless. She suffered for a short time. to live for a long time. Oh the joy I find in my sorrow.

If you ask my why I'm a Christian I may give you more then on reason, but now I say I am a Christian because with Christ, my suffering has purpose, I am suffering for SomeONE not because of some thing. That is what made Momma special not because of who she was and what she did but because of WHO'S she was and WHO she did it for.

So our life is truly about Christ and not about us and thats not a bad thing that is just plain AWESOME.
