Life is Messy

Just been watching "Parenthood", or the second half of it anyway. One of the lines was, "Life is messy". So true. It seems the more of life we experience, the more we realise life isn't quite what we hoped it would be, that there are lots of things that disappoint us - in the lives of others close to us, and in our own lives.

But it's great to know that we can, and should, come to God amidst all the messiness. Our problems aren't instantly fixed when we come to Him, but we know that we have a God who is with us no matter what, and a God who offers us His peace amidst the storm... A God who offers us forgiveness through Jesus, and a God who gives us hope.
