I love people. Most people say I have a "mother's heart". I love to talk about Jesus and what He is teaching me. I love to learn from young adults. They have so much to offer the world. I work much - at a Christian book store and for a Live Blood Analysist.

Bigger Picture

MANY years ago a young couple went to Provost, AB to pastor a little Anglican church. They were very enthusiastic and many of the young people were radically changed. In fact, one family was shaken. The father was totally upset with the changes in his kids that he all but run the pastor & his wife out of the town. Well he gave them a pretty rough time.

But now for the Bigger Picture....

One of those radically changed young ladies married and ended up in Indonesia as a missionary.

I happened to meet this lady the other night. That young couple who went to minister in her small town happened to be my sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

It was so cool. They paid a price to be true to their convictions and yet God had a plan bigger than even theirs. I was blown away to get this story.

I want to hang in there and be faithful no matter what the cost. We never know what the bigger picture is.

It's so true, and when we get closer to the bigger picture we wonder how we couldn't have seen it coming!
