Such a long time

I feel like I have not updated any real info on here in such a long time!

So much has happened. My grandmother fell ill and we thought she was getting better when she suffered a horrible stroke in the arms of my mother. She fell, my mom went to get her and she started slurring words and then she had the stroke right there and lost all communication and consciousness. We spent several days by her side and watched her enter the presence of Jesus and God.

She loved Easter and it was really hard to get prepared this year. We buried her during lent and the service was wonderful.

Easter is special, and now more so knowing my grandmother is spending it with our Saviour who rose from the dead after being crucified for us all who accept Him.

So much else is going on around me. I see people each and every day who are so lost, who don't have Christ. It affects so much of their lives. It really is so so sad to me to see this. It makes my heart glad though that these people who are so lost will sometimes ask me or Mr. Brown to pray for them. I do so, and try to witness to them that God is not this genie in a bottle that I must petition, but sometimes it is so hard.

The complicated, yet so simple answer, is they need Jesus. It is that simple.

I was helping my mom take care of my grandmother for so many weeks. Life sometimes takes over what you are trying to do. I am so thankful we home school and could take it easy during that time. I am so thankful to God that I had that time. My grandmother left this world knowing I loved her, and into one's arms who loved her so much He died for her. I cannot be sad for that, I will rejoice!

Lord, as this Easter comes it is my prayer that you will let my words and actions guide others to you so they too will join you when they leave this world!
