WOW!
What a week! An emotional rollercoaster for all invlolved! After the brain chemo on Monday dad was on a downward spiral. To put it bluntly--he went loopy. We didn't know if or when he would ever come out of this state. The doctors and nurses wouldn't give mom a straight answer. They were really worried but didn't know what to do. But mom knew what to do. Her and Christy went to dad and started praying over him. Saturday night they committed dad to God and requested complete healing of his mind. Sunday morning dad was back to normal! What an answer to prayer! A complete turnaround! Praise God!
You know, God is in complete control over this situation. He is Sovereign over dad, mom, me--He is Soveriegn over you. Whether or not you acknowledge or even see what He is doing in the world and in your life. Our sin blinds us, we put up walls, and we hide from God. He's there waiting, having already accepted you for who you are, for you to decided to come to Him. To acknowledge that there is no one like Him.
Yes, our sin blinds us to the actual reality. I don't live life with blinders anymore because of what God has done in my life. It is true that the penalty of our sin is death (eternal separation from God)(Romans 3:23). And is order to appease God's wrath against the sin in our lives there needs to be a sacrifice made ("without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin"). Jesus Christ is that sacrifice. He took our sin on himself and shed his blood on the cross, in our place. We don't have to be eternally separated from God anymore....
If you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Just thought I would share with all who read, family and friends alike, the best news I've ever heard. Would you at least think about what I've said? Any questions give me a shout.....
