Cuz You'r Hot and You'r Cold

Well, today I experienced hot and cold. Here in Jamaica its hot and yesterday in Texas it was 106. Its funny because today at church I had goose-bumps, when not even 24 hours ago it was 106 in my home town, but as soon as the AC was turned off I was sweating again. It reminds me of life. In particular Job's life. He had kids, wife, animals, and a lot of possessions. Then God, testing Job, allowed Satan to take away his possessions, family, and animals. Then Job got sores, his wife and friends told him to curse God, but he didn't. He remained faithful and God rewarded him with more than what he to begin with. Job's life was a paradox, but through the good and the bad, the hot and the cold, he still praised God. I hope that I can do the same in my life.

Right now my family and I are experiencing a paradox. My great grandmother died 2 Wednesday's ago. We miss her but I'm happy t say that she IS in a better place where she does not suffer in this painful world. And I can't wait to see her, all better, in Heaven.
