Sick

My daughter was so sick last night, she was vomiting and shaking like i have never seen. The crazy part is she was up half the night vomiting, and stuff and didn't even remember any of it. The weird part is I submitted her name to the IHOP prayer staff the night before to have them pray for her asthma to be healed.

Gomer

I am constantly reminded that God's love for his people is great. The book of Hosea reveals just how much God really does love his people. As a husband who has been wounded by the sins of his wife, he forgives her time and time again. Hosea's wife Gomer gave herself to other men, and lovers, and yet God tells Hosea to continue on loving her. God willingly commits his servant to a life of utter humiliation, in order to demonstrate His great love for us. Why does God care, why not let his people go astray, and ultimately let them destroy themselves through their own wickedness. My guess is he can't. He can't because his very nature, very fiber of his being is love. That kind of love i simply don't understand, but I know when it touches me. I know that when i experience God's love it cuts through all of my sin and guilt, and the darkness surrounding me.
"even the darkness is not dark to Thee, and the night is as bright as the day" -psalm 139 There is no where i can go, where God's love cannot reach me, which is why he willingly humiliated his servant. To tangibly show his people the extent of his foolish love.

Long time no see

Wow, it has been a terribly long time since I have blogged. I haven't really run out of things to say, just time to say it in. I have been really blessed with a great job, and couldn't be happier. Things are going decent at home, and all is on the up and up. It seems like things always look darkest before the dawn. Just when your eyes are strained and cant seem to focus any longer. Day breaks forth like a mighty chariot drawing for the sun, in splendor and glory. It is good, when things go good, and life is peaceful, and filled with light.
