"Out of Egypt I have called my son." (Matthew 2:15)
Because of Herod's threat, Joseph took Jesus and Mary into Egypt.
Herod's threat, which was so ominous, was nothing more than an open door for accomplishing God's will.
God's will. God's plan. God's providence. God causing things to happen. Making history.
Herod was a powerful leader. He could open scenes, trigger sequences, but he couldn't cause anything to happen--not really. Only God could cause.
When the future doesn't seem to be unfolding according to our precise desires, we get anxious.
Remember the God revealed in Jesus Christ is a God of surprises. When doors of desire slam in your face, trust the God of creativity to open new, unexpected doors into the future.

our prayers will be answered in God's timing...and I pray he changes the hearts of a lot of those in Washington, so they make RIGHT decisions yet not necessarily EASY decisions...i'll keep praying if you will, ha ha :)
thanks for leaving me a note...
the "girly comments and graphics" haven't shown anything bad that i've noticed...she primarly does cute comics and pictures with "movement" for the different seasons.
We'll be pulling for those Cardinals!
