Tomorrow is the 37th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. In light of that, please watch the following video about little Elliot Mooney and how his life, a life that could very well have been snuffed out because of Roe v. Wade, has done much for God's glory.
Life is short - a vapor James says. As Christians, we do well to remember that we are here ever so briefly. I just turned 70 recently and thoughts of my parents came to mind, remembering that my they didn't live long past their own 70th year. My father died at age 80 and my mom at 82. It was quite sobering to think that I may not even be here as long as they were.
But it's good to consider our mortality. To help with that, Tim Challies wrote a post entitled "Ponder the Brevity of Life". You can find his article here.
Jesus Christ has been my Savior since 1975. Robert, the wonderful man that
God provided to love me has been my husband for 48 of those years. We have five grown children, with children of their own. Of course, that means that we have grandchildren - ten to be exact, and nine great-grandchildren with another one on the way. I have been a stay-at-home mom, sometimes helping to supplement the income from within the home. Now I am a stay-at-home grandmother. Jesus Christ has been my guide and keeper and I have found, in all the trials, heartbreaks and good times that He just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter as the years roll by. My future is secure and I look forward to eternity in the presence of my Creator, Redeemer and King.
"We do not earn or merit anything by taking refuge in God. Hiding in something makes no contribution to the hiding place. All it does is show that we regard ourselves as helpless and the hiding place as a place of rescue." John Piper
