How Does Time go by so Quickly?!?

Does time really go by this fast...can things change so much? Its been forever ago I took the time to post on a blog!! I will say it feels good to do so again. A lot has happened in the past year for me. I got married and now am expecting a little one in August all before turning 22!! Wow the Lord is so good to me! It has been a little overwhelming at times all these new things happening but also I would say, even more so, a blessing. Anyways I just wanted to write all this down as I said I am mostly using this blog for a journal. The reason I decided to call my blog "Once Upon a Time" is because I truly feel like the Lord has given me a fairy tale to live in. He he ^-^ I know that sounds silly but that's just how I feel. Yes, I kind of am a child at heart... I remember one of my church showers a friend who did the devotional mentioned something I wont forget. She said how the Lord has saved us from our sins and died on the cross so that us, the sinners, could trust on His name and be saved from everlasting punishment in Hell. She just mentioned that it was similar to the classic fairly tale plot were the Prince (being Christ) saved his love, the fair maiden(us sinners) from a sure death. But then He even goes further than that because a sacrifice was REQUIRED on His part...that being death so we can live with Him( I John 4:10;19 " In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins...We love because He FIRST loved us.) Now I thought she could not of illustrated this point any better to me! I mention this too because it is also a big part of my blog name. Christ(my Prince) has saved me from my worst enemy of all,My sinful evil self who deserves nothing better than Hell!! Using His blood to do so. So my "Once Upon a Time..." STARTS with HIM!!  Alright this is all Ill write about today. I thought it would be a good place to start from! Have a blessed day in the Lord!! ^-^ xoxo
