I'm going to use a verse today that may be offensive to some, but I am hoping it will make you think... This is from the gospel of John, when Jesus is talking to descendants of Abraham, people that do not believe he is who he is... "Why can't you understand what I am saying? It's because you can't even hear me! For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is not truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies. So when I tell the truth, you just naturally don't believe me!" John 8:43-45
Whadd'ya think of them apples? Do you believe? Do you believe me and what I am saying about God?
A couple people have told me that some could only wish for a bit of the happiness that Joe and I have had together - wow, that is powerful. We really were the ultimate team, working for each other... This picture, again, is from our honeymoon. We got a bottle of wine and glasses as a wedding present, so we decided to use them right away... This picture brings a smile to my face and tears to my eyes, thinking about how much fun we {always} had together, and that it will never happen again... So, after we finally found a corkscrew in our cabin, we realized it was a twist-off cap - hahah - but, we still wanted this picture, for fun and memories.
WOW do I miss him.
