Struggling Well With Life

We were out with good friends the other night. It was a great evening. Really good food. Conversation the dipped beneath the surface. It was a gift of a night in a month that has brought little rest, and limited peace. While heading home with a grateful heart for a festive mood and moving through an intersection, another car came literally barreling through a red light at a decent speed. 1-2 seconds tops, was all that separated us from having Christmas with Jesus, face to face. I woke up several times that night shaken up a bit. Just another reminder that God is in complete control of the universe, and my world inside that universe. Don’t get me wrong - I am ready for Glory, in fact long for it more and more. And I am also ready and thrilled to celebrate another Christmas here with the three women in my world.
