Inspiration

This past weekend, my parents treated the hubby and I to: A Weekend To Remember by Family Life. It was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. I'm still feeling renewed and refreshed not only in my marriage but with God. (They do a GREAT job of filling both of those needs!)

Anywho... as I was reading Jesus Calling (Devotions for Every Day of the Year), this spoke to me today (pieces of today's devotion):

"Abundant life is not necessarily health and wealth; it is living a continual dependence on ME." OK... the wealth thing is a no brainer - we all know that life isn't about wealth (money). However, I am always so thankful for the health of my family and friends. I get mad when health doesn't go right for those I care about. However, He reminded me today that life isn't about health either - it's about Him.

Today, Scott's grandma past away (and let me just tell ya - she was one of the neatest, funnest, spunkiest, cutest, most faithful ladies I knew). As sad as it is that she passed, she lived a life FOR Jesus. She could NOT wait to get to heaven. She had been saying that she was ready for years! She lived her life according to that quote above - money and health didn't matter to her. Jesus did. I can't even begin to imagine the smile on her face when she met Jesus today. My heart swells at the thought of the pure happiness and peacefulness she has found today.

God bless you Rosalyce! You will NEVER be forgotten... in fact, you were an inspiration to everyone who knew you!
