Well, I probably should have put up a warning post back, oh... about a month ago!... to say that I probably wouldn't be posting for a while because of the semester's crazy end.
But I didn't, and indeed it was crazy, and I have just not posted. However, the semester ended about a week ago, and I have a bit of a life again:) So please keep checking here, as I am working on a couple of blogs that should be up this week.
In the meantime, I want to leave you with the words of a song that my church started singing that is so moving and encouraging. The thought that as true believers in Christ we will NO DOUBT stand before Him one day and spend eternity in peace with Him, living as we were meant to be is amazing. It just blows my mind! Life is so hard and for so many people filled with pain. But one day for us, there will be no more crying, pain, sickness, darkness, etc. Not only is that an incredible future to look forward to, but it's so comforting for the here and now as well.

On that day when I see, all that You have for me,
When I see You face to face, there surrounded by Your grace,
All my fears swept away in the light of Your embrace,
Where Your love is all I need, and forever I am free.
Where the streets are made of gold,
In Your presence healed and whole,
Let the songs of heaven rise to You alone.
No weeping, no hurt or pain,
No suffering,
You hold me now, You hold me now.
No darkness, no sick or lame,
No hiding,
You hold me now, You hold me now.
In this life I will stand, through my joy and my pain,
Knowing there’s a greater day, there’s a hope that never fails,
Where Your name is lifted high and forever praises rise,
For the glory of Your name, I’m believing for the day.
Where the wars and violence cease, all creation lives in peace,
Let the songs of heaven rise to You alone.
No weeping, no hurt or pain,
No suffering,
You hold me now, You hold me now.
No darkness, no sick or lame,
No hiding,
You hold me now, You hold me now.
For eternity,
All my heart will give,
All the glory to Your name.
For eternity,
All my heart will give,
All the glory to Your name.
