Because He Lives

That music guy today picked a few of the old hymns to sing in church this morning. I have to thank that music guy for making that decision. ;) While I sat silently singing those songs in my head today (still am speechless, with 2 and a half hours to go, God has made me quite a listener today), one of them really captured my attention.

"Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know..He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives."

I listened to those lyrics and then thought, literally, because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Kate's surgery is tomorrow morning. Easter Monday is always a day off for the students, and we're just having meetings, so they'll have to press on with those meetings without me there. I'll be at the hospital with my beautiful bride, who will still be stunning to me even after this surgery. It's all in God's powerful hands. I'm praying already that He gives me the patience I'll need tomorrow. I'm praying He gives Kate the strength that I know she has so much of already. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, and all comes with it. God bless. I pray you had a wonderful Easter.

Hope the surgery went well today. Was in deep prayer all weekend for those who were missing their children. I know the joy the disciples had in seeing their friend once again will be the same joy you will experience seeing Gracie again. Praying on....

BTW...I like the new look of your site along with your picture. Thanks once again for sharing with the world.
