Counting My Blessings: 761 to 781

We mourn a world that seems beyond redemption… and yet Christ promises His redeeming love for those who turn to Him. I’m praying that God’s presence will comfort those affected by the horrifying events that shake our world. Jesus is coming soon, and until then I plod on… thanking God each day for undeserved mercy and grace.
