Well the bags are packed, all the arrangements for Riley are made and the house is clean. We leave for the Holy Land tomorrow. Walking where Jesus and his followers walked, standing on the shore of the the same water Jesus calmed. Maybe even eat some of the same kind of food they all ate. I can hardly believe what I am typing. We are so excited.
Have you had moments in your life where you are so excited by something? Where you just want to pinch yourself because you can't believe what is happening? Wouldn't it be great if being a follower of Christ was that kind of "exciting" for us everyday. Christ gave so much for us so that we could have life abundantly.
Romans 5:17B says:
Can you imagine the breathtaking recovery life makes, sovereign life, in those who grasp with both hands this wildly extravagant life-gift, this grand setting-everything-right, that the one man Jesus Christ provides? (The Message) I love how the Message puts it.
Let's grab our forgiven, exciting life with both hands this week. Let's show everyone around us the grand life we live. Maybe they will want that life too!
Hope to chat with you this week from Israel!
Blessings!!
