Remembering...

Isaiah 55:8-9

For my thoughts are not your thoughts,

neither are your ways my ways,

saith the LORD.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

so are my ways higher than your ways,

and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Jeremiah 29:11~

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD,

thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

This morning, I'm remembering my nephew, Darrell. Five years ago today, Darrell, 14, went home to Heaven, far sooner than any of us ever dreamed he would. While our hearts still hurt, and while we still sometimes wonder what God is doing, we know that he is with Jesus~not because he was a good boy, not because his parents had surrendered to go to the mission field, not because he was kind, and not because he loved his family...

Darrell is in Heaven today because he

 knew Jesus as his personal Savior!

Do you know where you would go if you died today?

Just for you, William and Bev~

We love you and are praying for you!
