I serve an awesome God!

Well today is 6 months, and I am 2 1/2 week from finishing my therapy. God has been so amazing through this entire process. I have given God all the glory for my speedy recovery. I plan on playing softball in the spring. I have had people ask why this happened to me. My response is, "Who cares? I'm alive." I will get to see my son turn three next month. I serve an awesome God and I dare anyone to challenge me on this. I was removed from the grasp of death. No one will ever convince me MY God is not real or alive.

Give God Our Best?

I recently watched the movie “Facing the Giants”, and was challenged to give God my best. How exactly do I give God my best? Yeah I know the first fruits and all that, but am I really giving my best? What if I could have tried harder and made better first fruits, or worked harder and made more fruit thus producing more first fruits? Then it hits me my best will never come within miles of touching the shadow Jesus’ best, the Cross. All I can do is try my very best to follow His example, and when I don’t succeed at least I have given it the very best I can. This is really all He is asking for. Thank you Jesus for giving you very best and picking up my slack!
