Let me go with you!

"The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying "Return home and tell how much God has done for you." So the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him."

Luke 8:38-39


I'm sure you have all heard me sound somewhat suicidal at times. And truly, I desire to depart from here and go and be with God. Even if it was just before the best day of my life, like the day I get married or right before the birth of my child, I'd rather go see him because I know seeing him will be over a quadrillion times better than those things. Don't get me wrong, I look forward to those things still, but I want to be with Jesus, with all my soul I want to go see him.

Although I may beg him to let me go with him, much like this guy who had thousands of demons driven out of him by Jesus, He still says, "Go and tell how much God has done for you". No sense in arguing with Jesus, I'll just do what He says, He is the Boss. Someday I'll see him, but I will wait patiently and do my best to please Him now.


Good news! My niece was born on Saturday!!! Natalie Jane Maley! There were a few scares, but she is doing well and is healthy. I will be going home next weekend for her baptism (my family is Catholic and it is a pretty big event for everybody). Please be praying for my time at home with my family and that I would be bold and shine for Jesus, telling about all that he has done for me!

Also, be praying for our sister Alicia and her family. I am mourning with you sister and I pray that your family will find comfort and peace in Jesus right now. We all together love you and support you.
