His Footprints, My Heart...

Interesting story, I know I've seen a lot of that arguement, "God doesn't exist because things stink." But that's a different way to combat that!

This is one of the most clever written stories I have read. I was here on Saturday, but I didn't post. There was a story behind that, but anyway I am back today reading it again because I loved it. And thank you for praying for Graham. No headaches for two days!! And nothing that looks like seizures since Tuesday. So hopefully that was just due to fever.

Miss Irene,
Wasn't that good?? I had a great weekend and hope you did as well. I'm off to visit your blog when I finish commenting :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Barbara,
Thanks for the comments! We had great news on my FIL, it was an ulcer... it could have been worse. Prayer certainly changes things. According to Darlene's comments Graham is doing well right now too :) Off to your blog next too ;)

Paula,
Hey Sis... great "argument" FOR God, huh? I have a friend whose father always says to people who say why should I believe, what if your wrong..."I'd rather die believing that there is a God and be wrong than to die not believing there is God and be right"
Love ya sis!!!

Nettie,
Isn't that true? It amazes me that some people who don't want to accept God think that He "causes" bad things to happen to them... but do they give Him credit for good things? Thanks for the comments!

Darlene,
That's great about Graham! I'll keep praying :) Isn't that a great story? Different, isn't it? So glad you enjoyed it!

I liked the story until it came expressed that pain and suffering could disappear if only people would come to Him. I think we have fallen world. It is full FULL of sin. God allows pain and suffering to even the best of Christians. Knowing that God is our help and our peace throughout the suffering is what makes all the difference. I agree that people, all people, need to come to Him but there will also be suffering to some degree or another. I think of water shortages in India and Africa, disease in other places. Those types of things are there but I suppose if the higher up people came to Him, maybe that would make all the difference for those that are suffering.

Lynne,
I see your point... I think my take on it is that the pain and suffering isn't going to disappear if we come to God, just like my bad hair days won't disappear because I go to the hair salon; but I can learn how to deal with it and to know that there are better (hair) days ahead :) BTW, I'm glad your Evan is feeling better :)

I'm back, and yest Cindy is my buddy, she is right. We used to live a block from each other and we both homeschooled. It was a wonderful year after I found her.

I left a little extra jingle in my comments and of course I had to add your name Cindy Lou!

Hi Cindy,
Thanks so much for stopping by! Darlene's awesome, isn't she! That's so true what you (your friend) said about healing. God never said that our healing would necessarily be on this earth, either. What better healing than to be "changed in the twinkling of an eye"? My mom passed away not quite 3 years ago from cancer, and I prayed and prayed for healing... and she was healed, just not while on earth... but there was so much more healing that has taken place because of all of that. I've been healed in many areas of my life, and my aunt, who we'd been praying to receive Christ for MANY years was saved just three weeks before she went to meet the Lord! I'm so glad you stopped by... I'm off to check out your blog! You have such a BEAUTIFUL name!! ;)

Darlene,
Of course she's a great bud... how could you not like someone with such a beautiful name?? ;) I love the extra jingle! Does this make me famous now?

It sure does.
