Being home for the holidays has opened my eyes to see what really is important! With my grandpa having cancer and fighting that battle it has made me realize how important time with family can really be. It's sad that sometimes we don't realize this until something tramatic comes up such as a loved one having cancer. And not knowing how long or if they will survive. So this season has been really special this year, to be able to see my grandpa for christmas. Especially when I thought I wasn't going to be here. It's hard to be here when I want to be in Brazil but I now see that this visit home was God ordained. To take hold of every precious moment that I get with my grandpa. God is revealing how important this is! So I thank him for the wonderful opportunity to be here with my family, when we all haven't been together for christmas in quite some time. I have learned something very valuable this christmas season and that is to never take granted the time you have with your family because it could soon be taken away. So I thank Jesus for allowing me to be here at this time.
Happy Birthday Jesus!!
Blessings to All! :)

Wow! What great insight to have about family. And you are absolutely right, because at the end of the day our families are the most important thing that we have next to Jesus.
I am really proud of you and how honest are being about the many "difficult" things you have been learning over the last several months. - Think about it this way, how different is your life now after surviving so many challenges and difficulties? The Lord is growing you into a strong and courageous woman of God... but it would never have happened if you didn't make that first step of faith and obedience. He is going to reward your life in awesome ways. - Love, PR
