Laughter

I love to laugh! The side splitting, doubled over, laughing so hard you don't make a sound, tears running down your cheeks, maybe for some of you, peeing your pants kind of laughing! (Am I allowed to blog that part?) It just does something inside of me....not sure if it increases my endorphines or what the deal is. The truth is laughter is the best medicine! I love hearing my boys laugh and banter back and forth. I like watching my mom laugh, its hilarious! I imagine God sitting on the throne of Heaven with a smile on his face when we laugh. Can you picture it too?

Rain, rain, go away

All this rain we've been getting is making my bones feel soggy. Like I've been sitting in a bath tub too long with pruny fingers to boot. I know that the saying goes 'April showers bring May flowers' but rain everyday is a little much. Enough complaining! While I do enjoy the occasional rain shower/thunderstorm, my emotional well being fairs much better when the sun is shining. I'm sure that I'm the only person that needs sunshine to function. With Easter on Sunday I'm well  aware that I need the Son in my life to get from one day to the next! Happy  Easter everyone!!!

Why Bother?

A few weeks ago we at Grace were challenged as to why we bother. Why bother getting up in the morning? Why bother going to work? Why bother doing what we do everyday? Why bother living for Christ? Why bother loving people who wrong us? You catch my drift. I had this lightbulb moment where I felt the Holy Spirit answer those questions. Obedience. Because the Lord asks this from us. Thats why I bother with my walk with Christ, why I bother doing what I do everyday, because in the end it will all have been worth it!!!
