My mother made a comment about me swimming where there could have been snakes, bugs, or weird fish and how I have changed.  Mom you probably won't like this post much, but I think God gave me this verse and I say it for about everything. 

                     Somewhere in Ecclesiastes it says " the destiny of every man is death".

haha those are some goofy ones, but even sleeping at night with the bugs and the lizards could get someone.  I find comfort in not having to wonder whether or not I am going to die.  Turns out all of us are going to.  As I read through Acts, I read about how people try to kill Paul all the time, but God protected him until his plan was complete.  It is actually pretty safe here, but for those of you who know me, I'm usually not one for dirty things or weird animals.  As an answer to prayer, God has broke any little fears I had.  He holds me tightly, and will not allow anything to happen to me that would cut his plans for me short.  He is a good father.
