Hi everyone!

It's been beautiful here today, finally! I spent yesterday with my daughter and her three girls. She had her weekly appointment so I played with the girls. Always a fun time, I'll post pics soon! The baby will probably be born later next week. I can't wait to see him and find out his name (& nickname!)

The tragic murders that happened this week are so horrendous, the fact that a human being could do something like that is almost unbelievable. Almost. I had a really sobering thought. While I was studying the Bible the other day I was in Deuteronomy reading about the cities of refuge that were set up for the protection of someone who had accidently killed another. They were not allowed to protect someone who had actually murdered someone (the shedding of innocent blood). When I thought about the massacre that occured at Virginia Tech and how much media coverage it received, and is still receiving, and, I'm totally sure, will be milked by every network for all it's worth, I was reminded of the almost 1.4 million unborn babies that were murdered in this country alone in the last year. No media outlet ever covers that, no flags flown at half-mast, no memorial services. There is no more innocent blood than that of an unborn child. Our nation talks about human rights policies of other nations when we allow some of the most barbaric practices ever heard of to be performed on the most defenseless of our people. That this country hasn't been judged for that alone is nothing less than the mercy of God!

That same merciful God has provided the Way for us to come to Him, be rid of our sinful nature, have heaven as our home when we leave this earth and the power and ability to serve Him while we're still here! I am so glad that I have found my Savior! Have you? Don't wait until it is too late!

Shalom!
