If . . . .

If I gave you all things, how would you appreciate them ?
If I never corrected you, how would you know that I LOVE YOU and want the VERY BEST for YOU ?
If you had all power then how would you learn to depend on me ?
If your life was perfect then what would you need me for ?
If you knew all, how would you know that I will come to your rescue ?
If you never were broken, then how would you know that I can make you whole ?
If you never had a problem, how would you know that I could solve them ?
If you never had any suffering, then how would you know what Jesus went through and how hard his sacrifice for us all was ?
If you never went through the fire, then how would you become pure ?
If you never felt pain, then how would you know that I am a Healer ?
If you never went through difficulties, how would you know that I am a Deliverer ?
If you never had a trial, How could you call yourself an over comer?
If you never felt sadness, How would you know that I am a Comforter ?
If you never made a mistake, how would you know that I am Forgiving ?

Just like raising our own children, our Heavenly Father loves us enough to allow us the experiences in life that will help us to grow, become stronger and teach us.

Even though we can't seem to find all the answers right now, with enough faith I know that my Heavenly Father will guide us.

The most important thing right now is trying to figure out how to stay home with Malorie - for the moment it does not seem financially possible. But we are open and willing to see what the Lord has in store for us. Whatever sacrifice needs to be made we are willing to make it.
