Secure in the Knowledge

Recently someone very special to my friend went home to be with Jesus. As I prayed and studied God's word I was reminded how God knew us even before our birth and He knows the number of hairs on our head and the time when our life here on earth will end. There is a plan for our life and it is a comfort to know that God is indeed in control. In the last few years my life has changed so very much. My mom went on to live in glory with our Heavenly Father, and my granmother just joined her within the last few months. I used to feel this immense sense of loss and the desire to want just one more hello or one more hug good-bye. It is especially hard when you don't get a chance to say good-bye. I was left feeling like I needed to "do" something. I was reminded by something I read in the bible, that one day soon I will get that very chance to see my mom, and my grandmother. Having the assurance that through my relationship with Christ I will see so many grand things when I get to heaven. Thank you my loving Father, for dieing on the cross and giving me a chance at eternal life right there with you. What a wonderful gift. This gift is offerred to anyone who wants to accept the invitation.
