This week I came head on with how precious life is, yet fleeting... the sweetness of seeing the miracle of birth, holding a newborn baby, and receiving the message of serious illness of someone dear.
It has been a bittersweet time for me, seeing a precious new life, and wondering if another is reaching it's final days on this earth.
It has made me remember once again how precious life is and how fleeting, and yet God is in control of life itself. He knows the number of our days. He gave us the gift of eternal life through Christ, so that we would have the confidence that when our life ends on this earth it begins with Him in Heaven.
I thank God for His promisses to never leave us or forsake us, that we can trust in the One who gave His life so we might live.
