A word from my heart

I love Sunday's! I'm not perfect my any means, but I love the days I go to church and hear such a great word from God and leave feeling so refreshed. Its such a great feeling. If only we all could feel this way each day when we wake up! It's hard with the craziness of the real world, to make time for God each morning. Today I want to encourage everyone to read at least 10 minutes of God's word this week. I am going to do the same thing! I try to spend time with God daily, at least in prayer if not in the word, but God calls us to read His word daily and to know Him and have a personal relationship with Him. That is why we were put on this earth, to then die and be with the Lord who blessed us with this wonderful life. The least we can do to give back to the Lord is spend 10 minutes daily with Him and praise him for all of the great things in our lives: Family, friends, home, car, jobs, babies, great health etc.... God gave us all of this so give back to Him!

My parents shared with me a forward that was sent to them from my Uncle about a 12 year old boy that worked on a ranch in Nebraska. This boy listens to a Christian radio station in Houston Texas. He called in to tell a story about how his dad was roping a calf that was born from an old cow and how she didn't have the greatest milk, and ended up breaking her back. The boy continued to say that he had to put her to sleep. He was so sad and talked to God and asked, "Why God, she was so special to me". God told this little boy that HIS son was special and died for a purpose. He said it was the same thing, the calf was close to him, and God's son was close to him.
... The boy went on to say he wanted to share this with people that it's so important to remember when you lose a loved one, even a pet, to always remember that God gave HIS son too, and he understands how we feel, and that He will always understand if we just run to Him.

This was so touching. I thought about it last night as I went to bed and wanted to share this with my blogger friends today. If a young boy at 12 can realize this, so can you! God is good, just give him some Glory! May God be with all of my friends and family today! LOVE YOU!!!
