Inspirations and encouragements

Readers may remember that on Friday I was saying that I think God allows bad things to happen so that good may come out of it.  As I sit here writing this blog entry now I am really wondering what kind of good can come out of the suffering of my grandmother.  I have said to people in the past that it seems like allowing someone as old as my grandmother to get cancer seems like a very cruel joke.  I mean, she is eighty=seven years old, and, I don't mean this to sound cruel, but she will die soon enough, in my opinion, without her having to suffer through cancer.  I ask myself: "If Jesus suffered and sacrificed Himself for my sins, then why can my family and I not suffer for love of Him, but sometimes I feel like stuff like this is just too much, especially for such an elderly woman who has already been through so much.  I just thank God that He gave me this forum in which I and others can express our thoughts.  Since the birth of Frees, starting ...

As I was in the shower this morning it was given to me by the Holy Spirit that I should let the readers of this blog know that my faith is very important to me.

Many times it is asked: "Why would God allow people to go through such horrible things as cancer?" I believe the answer is simple. It is so that good can come of it and I hope that we can do many good things for people using this forum. I hope that anyone who reads this will see the good that we can deriveout of something which, on the surface, looks bad. I beieve that this is our mission.

Okay so here goes.  I think that you guys will find this a lot easier to use, and so I will be moving our blog as of right now.  Those of you who wish to continue to use Livejournal are free to do so, but I will be emailing the link for the site we are going to use as a support organization very shortly.
