Though the Lord is high, yet he has respect to every lowly, humbled sinner; but the proud and unbelieving will be banished far from his blissful presence. Divine consolations have enough in them to revive us, even when we walk in the midst of troubles.

And God will save his own people that they may be revived by the Holy Spirit, the Giver of life and holiness.

If we give to God the glory of his mercy, we may take to ourselves the comfort. This confidence will not do away, but quicken prayer.

Whatever good there is in us, it is God works in us both to will and to do. The Lord will perfect the salvation of every true believer, and he will never forsake those whom he has created anew in Christ Jesus unto good works.

Happy Birthday, Chance!

Chance,
I remember the day you were born as if it were yesterday! I have loved every moment being your Mom! I'm very proud of the young man you've become - the choices you're making, the friends that you've chosen and the strength you show by being your own person. I love your sense of humor and the fact that you are so loving. Thank you for 17 wonderful years and I'm looking forward to watching you become a man.
Love, Mom

    Today is my oldest's birthday too--hard to believe it's been this long having her around. I never thought I'd like being a mom this much.
