sometimes i find myself at a lose for words, not really sure where to start my blog with all the thoughts running through my head or lack of. :0) so i decided today to write a quote that i read yesterday that i really liked, i like things that are thought provoking.
"the prodigal son was resolved to come, yet he was half-afraid. but we read that his father ran. slow are the steps to repentance, but swift are the feet of forgiveness, god can run where we can scarcely limp, and if we are limping towards him, he will run toward us. though the father was out of breath, he was not out of love." charles spurgeon (luke15:20)
it amazes me that no matter what we have done, if we will only limp towards god that he will run towards us. not only run, but run with arms wide open to hold us in his loving embrace. what a loving father we have even when life is kicking us in the face, he is there ready and willing to hold us and let us know everything will be alright. like the song i quoted the other day "It's in the journey that we learn we can't do it alone"
peace......
