"Surely, just as I have intended so it has happened,
and just as I have planned, so it will stand."
Isaiah 12: 24
Life has a funny way of happening, and then when we reflect back on things, it is crystal clear just how much God has a hand in things. As He "intends," so it goes. I am not only talking about the death and resurrection of his only Son, and the wonderful season of Easter that we are now enjoying. But also how He so clearly works in our lives, with His ultimate goal: to simply have a closer relationship with us. How grateful I feel, for seeing, and listening, and contemplating, and realizing...all His gifts, and all He does in my life. I am blessed...
by family,
and friends,
and HIM,
all around me,
every day.
Look on. It is so evident.
