Good Monday morning everyone! How is the table family doing with week two of staying in? Has it been good to be home or are you feeling claustrophobic? Have you gotten a lot done around your house or have you been feeling like you don’t want to do anything at all?
Do you feel like it’s been difficult to see Jesus through all of this? Does it feel like He hasn’t been working throughout this pandemic? I’d like to share a verse with you about the work Jesus has done and continues to do…
John 21:25 says “Now there are also many other things that Jesus did, were everyone of them to be written I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.” (ESV)
We read about the miraculous things that Jesus did while here on earth, but there are so many more things that He did and still does. So many that ALL the books in the whole world couldn’t contain all the things Jesus has done! Think about that for a moment… every single book in the world right now, if they were all written about Jesus, could not contain all He has done. That sort of takes my breath away! So think of this verse when you are tempted to feel like Jesus isn’t doing anything. Look for what He has done… you’ll see Him.
This is Me
Hi, I’m Cyndi! I am a wife to a wonderful God-fearing man for almost twenty years. I am a mom to an ambitious comedic eighteen-year-old son and a spirited fun-loving sixteen-year-old daughter. I love to cook, create anything I can think of to make, talk and visit with friends and even strangers, and of course I love to write. Along with the writing, I love to read what other people write as well. I would love to live in the south somewhere but for now I live more in the suburbs of a town in Michigan. Oh yeah… and I’m almost blind. This means that I have to do things a little differently. It takes a little more time and a little more patience to get things done, but they get done. I was told of my eye disease when I was nine years old. At forty-four, they still cannot diagnose what I have for certain. However, I won’t sit still while they try and figure it out. Each day brings different challenges and some of the same as well. Navigating new territory is the most difficult thing for me to do, but I refuse to be held back and take the chance on missing out on an exciting new adventure. My bucket list holds adventures like parasailing, visiting Ireland, having at least one book published, and I’m sure there are more that I haven’t listed yet. Painting word pictures is my therapy and sanctuary. I use life as my brushes and paint. Lite me a candle, put on the spa music and a-writing I will go. Come on this journey with me, I hope you can find some new colors you like.

Wow. Never thought about the books being filled with things Jesus did. What a mind-blowing concept to think on.
Isn’t it? Imagine all the books you’ve ever read Cheryl and everyone of them were filled with what Jesus had done… and that would only be the ones YOU had read! Mind blowing is exactly the phrase to use. Hope you are well and staying safe. Blessings.
