The Power and Hope of the Gospel

Meant To Be





Long Before You Drew Your First Breath A Dream Was Coming True
God Wanted to Give A Gift To The World  So He Wrapped It Up In You
Every Step That You've Taken  Every Move That You Make   Is Part Of His Plan
You Were Meant To Be Touching    The Lives That You Touch   And Meant To Be Here Making This World So Much MoreThan It Would Be Without You In It
You Were Meant to Be Bringing   The Gifts That You Bring    And Singing The Songs You've Been Given To Sing
You Are Perfectly, Wonderfully,
Beautifully Meant To Be
You Were Meant To Be
This song written by Steven Curtis Chapman shows the healing power of the gospel in a life that was turned on its head . When someone goes through a tragedy like his family did , losing their little girl , it could crush . But in writing this song just a couple of years after , shows the strength of the gospel to bring light from darkness                                                                                                    

[25] Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, [26] and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” [27] She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.” John 11:25-27
This is our hope . Jesus Christ is our redeemer,our life ,our hope and our joy even amid great distress. What a great Saviour we have.

God is sovereign. Part of that sovereign plan is your own existence. Something I hope I convey to my wonderful you, the boys and the rest of our family. I hope I pass this feeling of importance to my friends and my clients at the Salon that they were fearfully and wonderfully made for a purpose. That they are important in this world of ours. Honey, thanks for making my world so much more than it would be without you in it. Love you, Mrs Reg
