Greatful!

I've been so blessed tonight with the love of people from our church! Most of you know the circumstances. I can't even really find words to say what God is dealing with in my heart. I just want to say thanks for all who have been praying, and those of you who found the time to come out to show your support and give encouragement! O I don't want to forget to mention all the wonderful food! so Thanks so much from the bottom of my heart.

2 Corinthians 2:5-11
5 If anyone has caused grief, he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you, to some extent- not to put it too severely. 6 the punishment inflicted on him by the majority is sufficent for him. 7 now instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8 I urge you, therefore, to reaffirm your love for him. 9 the reason I wrote you was to see if you stand the test and be obedient in everything. 10 If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven- if there was anything to forgive - I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, 11 in order thatt Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.

Romans 4:7&8
7 "Blessed are they whose transgresions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. 8 Blessed is the man whose sin the lord will never count against him"


Remember that Gods Grace is sufficent and it's not for us to judge. I hope that this week God will begin to stir some thanksgiving in our hearts to know that we have a church that is on Gods side and won't let Satan still our joy.

I was going to write a thank you blog, but it would basically say the same things, I am so thankful so many people love and support my mom, dad, and our family!
