I can’t believe that summer is officially over in a few days!  School has been in session for three weeks now, so it felt like summer was over weeks ago….

On resurrection Sunday we reflect on what Jesus did on the cross for us, He sacrificed His own life to give us a fresh beginning.  With His love, He selflessly bore the weight of the world on His shoulder; by His precious blood, He wiped away our sins, transgressions, and iniquities.  I thought about my own life.

As I’m writing this journal it’s now forty-five minutes past the first hour of the New Year.  Can you believe it? It’s 2018!!! It’s hard to believe how time flies.  My heart is overwhelmed with gladness.  I serve and love a great and faithful God.  2017 was an amazing year for me.  When I think of God’s goodness, I think of all that He has done in my life.  My memories always bring me back when I was a kid growing up in the Philippines.
