life is beautiful.

january 22 was the 37th anniversary of roe v. wade. i, along with many of you desperately hope that it will one day be overturned. until then... we can celebrate the beauty of life and cherish it. life is beautiful. however young or old... life is from God. it is a gift. and for believers, the more beautiful thing is that real life awaits us in the next life to come.

watch this video about a beautiful child, whose life seemed to be cut short, but really, he just got to see Jesus sooner than most of us. and his life has brought and continues to bring much glory to God.

after you've dried your eyes, go cherish life. and don't ever forget to give glory to the giver of life.
