2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. - Hebrews 12:2-3

celebrating the counting with you sister.
those precious boys!! i love the pics as they speak a thousand words, especially the facial expressions :)
#279 - amen! Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8).
no guilt, no condemnation - we are not people pleasers. dance the dance of freedom with the Lover of your soul, my sister!
as for Hebrews 12:2-3 :}
the Sacred echo, i prayed those very verses this morning!!
All glory and honor and praise to our King! Love you,
