I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!
Galations 2:20-21

Jan. 16, 2008~ Death ~
My grandmother died today.
It is a strange feeling. This is the first of my relatives that I have grown up with that has died when I have been an adult and of natural causes. I have really only experienced one other death of an older relative in my adult life that was in my immediate family.
I am so sad for my mother-this was her mother. It is strange to think of there coming a day when your mother is not with you.
It got me to thinking. What kind of an impact are we going to leave on this world? Good...bad...indifferent???
I pray to God that when He calls me to His side that I will have left an imprint of Him on all who have come in contact with me.
Glad to catch up with you. I love the new blog look!
I am so sorry about your friend. I will be praying. I know what you mean about your grandmother's death. When my grandmother, to whom I was very close, died, I was so thankful for her Christian example to me! My oldest dd asked me today if I will live to see her first child. "If God chooses," I told her. Thinking of what might or might not happen in the future is only scary to me when I stop thinking about God's control! Praying for all your family through this time. In Christ, Eva
Lori...I didn't know your grandma passed away. I am so sorry...I know it's been like 2 months, but I will pray for you and your family today. Aaron and I know what it's like to lose a family member...
We are a family of 9. We have home schooled since 1990. Our oldest 3 have graduated and are off on their own. So now we have a 10th,8th,6th and 4th grader. Our main goal as we have walked this path for a while now is to have a strong tight bond with our children and to have them love the Lord. We enjoy various ways of schooling mainly sticking to a Charlotte Mason path. I guess something that God has taught us through our journey is that we need to be grounded in what we know is true, yet flexible enough to grow in order to not be broken by winds of change.Until I figure out how to get pictures on here you can check us out at www.photobucket.com under garringer9 ---enjoy!
