Yup. That's where I am. It's been a long year. A year in which I have lost family and friends. A year in which I have worried for the health of those around me. A year of retreats, youth groups, concerts, corn mazes, devotions, river floats, youth rallys, silence, lock-in's, pizza, mini-golf, prayers, song, meetings, worship, laughter, mission trips, reading, training, deep conversations, text messaging, instant messaging, email messaging, voice messenging...
So I have to ask, why? Why do we do any of these things? There is only one reason - Christ.
Christ our redeemer - who purchased us in blood.
Christ our brother - who embraces us when we fall.
Christ our comforter - who knows the tears we cry.
Christ our Savior - who gave all that we might live.
As the year comes to and end let us find rest in Christ.
