I had an epiphany the other day as I was reading the scriptures. This is probably taken a little out of context, but the phrase "and it came to pass" came alive for me. Every event came...to pass. How true this is! Sometimes we go through a struggle just to get out of it again. No event lasts forever. We got married, bought our first home, planted our first garden, took in our first stray cats, started businesses, played in concerts... and then life continued. We moved from our first home, left our first garden, had to get rid of one of our first cats, closed down some of our first businesses, we took trips, we came home...it all came and it all passed.
It is a blessing to see some things pass, others are more difficult. And through all the passing, there is one thing in my life that will last forever. My Jady Lynn is growing everyday. She is now a whole week old. She is going to change and grow up no matter what...but Jace and I have her forever. That will never pass.
And it came to pass that they lived happily ever after! I'm so proud of you two kids, you are so brave and true to the faith!!!
ReplyDeleteDad and I have had the theme song "we've only just begun" since we started out 29 years ago. It's amazing how many times we've only just begun again! Indeed we have enjoyed our many journeys together. It helps when you have a great traveling companion!
