Genesis 1:31 "And God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good...."
This of course was before He created man and woman. Then it broke. Then sin entered the world and things were not so "very good" any more.
A brilliant mix of saddness and happiness is in my heart right now. My family is broken, which is breaking me at the moment. Yet for the time being I am listening to old praxis sermons on Itunes with Coldplay playing lightly in the backround, and that makes me smile. I think God and Coldplay collaborated together to have perfect timing in the release in their new album, because it is for sure helping keep the peace.
My heart is heavy, my health has not been the best lately, I am frustrated with trying to figure out my classes, I have a million things going on at once, and every piece of my family is falling apart. I recently started enjoying my family a lot these last few months. Baby Jillian, Jackson, my momma, nana everyone. Then it breaks, for once it wasn't my fault, but that makes it almost harder to deal with. I'm in the middle, and I'm worried about everyone. It's been all I can do to hold back my tears through out the day. I can't change anything, I can't do anything, I can only pray and wait to see what happens next.
My prayer is for God to redeem my family like He has redeemed my Heart. My hope is that He is going to make my family new; that He is breaking to rebuild. In the sermon I'm listening to, Pastor Justin made a point that I am sincerely desiring for my family.. God's
mission is not to reject everything that has been soiled by sin but to redeem it. I trust God no matter what, for his will is far better off the desires of my own understanding.. He sees all, knows all; therefore, He knows what's best.

4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."
5And he who was seated on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." Also he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true." 6And he said to me,"It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.
