Well,
The time has come for the first vacation/last vacation of the summer. Off to Florida in the morning and I couldn't be more excited. So excited in fact, that my younger brother and I have decided to stay up attempt to stay up all night. We will see how that works out for us...
Just a few things to think about...
Why do bad things happen to such good people?
A friend of mine lost his father about 2 years ago, and then yesterday, lost his mother.
Today, in Atlanta, there was a shooting. One woman was killed. and 2 innocent girls we shot. One in the leg and one is now paralyzed. I met the girl who is now paralyzed at a wedding about 3 weeks ago.
Who KNEW that was in her future?
It really doesn't seem fair, does it?
But then again, that is the age old saying. Why do bad things happen to good people? Thankfully we know God is in control, even if we may not understand the way things are at time.
It reminds me of the song by Laura Story - Blessings. If you haven't heard it definitely listen to this.
Unfortunately, the misfortune of others often help us to once again remind us of all the blessings we have to be thankful for.. even if they may not always come in the forms we may hope for.
Today I am:
Wanting: Vacation to hurry up and get here.
Needing: To finish packing.. its already 2 am!!! Oops!
