Thank you for the kind words.
Unfortunately we still have to live in this fallen world for now.
Praying we can preserve our freedoms for our grandchildren.
I am praying that for sure. My boys are just starting out in life and it is tearing me up.
This passage keeps coming to mind these days:
“We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you.”
1 Cor. 4:8-12
