"Authentic thanks is always for all things, because our God is a God kneading all things into a bread that sustains. Paul gave glory in tribulations (Romans 5:3) and took pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake (Corinthians 12:10), and he knew that which didn't look like anything good might yield good, all in the hand of a good God." I love that last phrase.<br /><br />The picture of your son just melts my heart. Camden, too, is a softie, and I see the same in Colton.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08325898729203111520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-48065776188803958422013-02-28T18:44:37.985-06:002013-02-28T18:44:37.985-06:00I had posted a quote on my Facebook page earlier a...I had posted a quote on my Facebook page earlier and as I read your uplifting words here that quote came to my mind again.<br /><br />"Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have, and say thanks to God for the troubles we don't have." You, my friend, are doing just this.<br /><br />Everything happens for a reason and you being late so you could hear those encouraging words was meant to be. <br /><br />What a precious son you have there.
