Good Friday - where Jesus died on the cross ... but the story doesn't end there. 
I was a little girl when I found a lost dog.  It was a German Shepherd and I loved him.  But more importantly, I needed him.  School was difficult.  My home was chaotic.  My sadness was deep.  This lost and beautiful animal was exactly the miracle I was hoping for.  I obediently posted flyers around the neighborhood but I secretly prayed nobody would respond so I could keep him.  My friendship with him grew.  As the hours turned into days and then weeks, I thought the blessing was mine.  Sadly, the call came and the owner retrieved him.  I was crushed AND I was strong.

It has taken a half century to realize little stories such as these created cracks in my soul.  It is a place where God painted faith, hope and love to mend those broken places.  I am not arrogant enough to think that my story should affect yours but perhaps mine can provide a platform in which God can mend and heal those places in you.

  • Because of his kindness you have been saved through trusting Christ.  And even trusting is not of yourselves; it too is a gift from God.  Ephesians 2:8
