There are certainly a lot of things I don't know and many sources will "amen" that statement: past grades in school(s), work experiences in the several jobs I've had, my family! But there are some things I do know:
I know Jesus and that God loves me and gave His Son for me so that I can have eternal life and an abundant life here on earth.
I know that I'm saved. I made a commitment to Christ when I was 22 - I can take you to the spot where I surrendered my goody-goody life for one that will never be good enough; thank you, Jesus, that I don't have to be good enough because You are.
I know that my family is saved and we will all be together in Heaven when this life is over. I am thankful that that is an issue that was settled long ago. I married a man who loves Jesus first, then me; and our son was wooed by Christ and I saw him follow his Saviour in believer's baptism when he was a teen.
I know how to share that message with anyone who is lacking that assurance cause I've been there and I remember how it feels to be unsure. Ask me; I'll tell you how to know Jesus and to be sure where you're going when this life is over.
I know that my family loves me unconditionally and I know that I don't deserve the blessing of that love.
I know how blessed I am to have said family, good health, great friends, and a job that I love.
I know that I am blessed with way more than I need and most of what I want. I know how good it feels to give, too, so I pray for lots of those opportunities.
I know that I am blessed with a beloved extended family - my inlaws and Alan's inlaws. I love me some Cardwells, Burnams and Devanes!
I know that one day, Alan and Ashley, I will be a good Grandma!
I know that I'm not as good a person as my dogs think I am, but I aspire to be!
