Shining Lights

I was sitting outside hoping to enjoy a beautiful evening. We’ve all experienced some dark times, and this was one of those for me. As I watched the sun set, I prayed for a brighter tomorrow. Heading indoors, I noticed a gift bag nearby. Inside was a book about the realities of heaven. A note attached revealed the giver was my friend, Bette. She knows firsthand about the challenges of life yet always faces them with faith and hope. Her laughter is contagious and so is her love of Jesus! My light seemed pretty dim that night, but I’m hoping to remember the joy of Easter every day! Because of the love and sacrifice of Jesus for us, we can look forward to our real home in heaven!
