The Cup Before Us

The Lord our God had given me a relatively "light" cross to bear these past three years. It was a very nice break and it allowed me the quiet moments to put the truths (as I sincerely believe them to be so) shared in this blog into written form.

Now that I have been spiritually rested, He is getting me mentally ready for a new ADVENTURE once again. I accept and am prepared for whatever cross the Lord wants me to bear moving forward.

Jesus gave us a fine example of how we can overcome our human nature's desire to avoid any cross in life when he declared "Abba! Father! All things are possible for you. Take this cup away from me. Yet not what I want but what you want." (Mark 14:36).

I drink with peace and love from whatever cup our Lord sets in front of me. Embrace the cup that is set in front of you by the Lord...do so and you will truly find your life (and fill that ever aching void within you).
