Sometimes it's good to realize how good things are. It may take some rain to make us realize how much we have, even if we don't have much according the the US standard. We have so much in our home. I sit here with one son playing the keyboard, one studying Christian literature, one daughter doing her math and another singing in the shower while my wife walks through the house being the beautiful being she is. God is so good.
I also realize that I can look at Job and realize that it can all go away. We just sang at church yesterday how God gives and God takes away. Even when He takes away I must praise Him. He is still good. We're only here for a little while, then we get to go to a place where nothing is taken away. That is where my treasure is. I want to know that all here in my house will be there and I want to get as many as will to meet me there, at the feet of Jesus.
