Romans

So last night I was reading my 5X5X5 plan (I am still way behind!) And I came across a verse that just was AWESOME! It's Romans 8:38,39 "And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." So if it isn't amazing enough that life nor death, angels nor demons can separate us from God's love, the fact that my fears and worries will never make God love me less. If this is true then what is there even to worry about? The powers of hell cannot even take God's love from me! This is something that I have always known but reading this last night just had such an impact I'm not even sure how to explain it. I am just passing this passage along hoping maybe it touches someone else the way it has touched me.
Everything else is going pretty good. Sesleigh has her very first recital today at 2! They had dress rehearsal yesterday and she did as well as can be expected for a 4-year-old. I have lost 2 pounds this week, so I'm hoping for around 3 this next week then I will have lost 10 pounds since Good Friday. I have been a lot more active this week and a lot less hard on myself...so I guess it worked out for me. Monday, Caleb is leaving to go out west and the girls and I are going along so he can drop us off at my sisters. I will be sure to take the camera and post pictures of my nephew "Tank" and Zoey and Sesleigh. I think it will be a good time. My nephew (his name is really Cooper) and Zoey were born 3 days apart. And Zoey is older but he makes her look like a dwarf, he is just a Tank. Anyway, nothing else too exciting for now, God bless.
