CINCO DE MAYO!

Hey all,

Hope you again are having a beautiful day! God sure is good and His grace anoints each and every moment of our being. What a wonderful, merciful God we serve!

So, this past weekend I went to Sioux Falls to see my cousin give her profession of faith! That was so cool and I am so proud of her! However, on the way down, I didn't know if I was going to even live! My dad drove us in my grandma's new car, and I really wonder if he just wanted to see how good the brakes were. But boy, did they work well! All 9 times he used them!

And the funny thing about that is the things he was braking to were little, indifferent things, such as someone using their turning signal and then pulling into his lane...while being 20 feet ahead of him! I've decided I'm not letting my dad drive in a big city with me as a passenger for a long while! Bless his heart, I love him, but he cannot drive in big cities to save his life! Woo.

On to other things, (you all are probably wondering me true affections toward my dad now...), God really opened my eyes to a very cool verse. I'm just going to share the verse here as I don't want to ruin the surprise for the kids I'm teaching Bible study to this week over this verse. But be ready to learn what God spoke to me in these verses. Ephesians 2: 8-10 says "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."

It is by God's grace that we are alive! It is solely by that alone that we know this new life in Christ and what He desires more from us! So, until next time, I'm just going to leave you with that! Hope you all have a very blessed evening and enjoy God's provision!

In Jesus,
Brandon
