Seasons

So...it has been a long time since I last posted.  Seasons have come and seasons have gone.  Now I find myself in a new season of life.  We have just returned home from moving our two youngest girls to college, and here I am in my empty nest.  My house is very quiet.  It is not a bad thing.  The girls keep me posted with all that's happening on campus.  They are very happy.  And they are very happy with their roommates.  (Ah, the blessings of happy twinship!)  And, I am very happy with my roommate.  (Ah, the joy of committed relationship--we have been married more than 35 years!)

And even better, I am very happy in my relationship with God.  Forty-six years ago I responded to His calling me into a relationship with Him.   He gave me new life by His Spirit.  He saved me from darkness and loneliness.  He has been faithful to me.  When I have questions, when I have joys, in the hard times, and in the times when life feels "so good",  He is my Rock and Salvation.  He keeps teaching me that when I look towards Him, acknowledging Him as Creator, Sustainer, Almighty,
All-Knowing, God, then I know the peace of living in His Presence.  And it is good.

Thank You, God, for your faithfulness to me.  May I be more faithful in my walk with You!
