At first, Emily began to cry in her sleep. The crying was not just like tears rolling down her eyes, she looked like she was in deep pain when she was crying in her sleep. At first I was just surprised and I just watched her as it went on. The pain looked so real so then I woke her up because it was kind of scary. I told her she was crying in her sleep and she just said "hasn't that ever happened to you?" It has never happened to me. I thought it was just her releasing her emotions in her sleep because Emily does not cry that much, especially these days, I don't think she has cried for about a month or two.

Gift

God's greatest gift was grace. It is what sets us free. But is grace free for us? Somewhat. We did not have to pay for it, but someone else did. Someone else paid their life. A life is worth more than any amount of money that the world can offer. A life is worth more than a house, a car, anything. What is crazy is that this life he paid was that it was not just any life; it was a perfect life. Free of sin something incapable to any man. You could not pay anyone any amount of money that would be able to motivate them to keep from sinning. Billions upon billions of dollars could not hold a person back for 33 years. God could have gave us each billions of dollars and it would not even compare to the value of grace. Money cannot even compare. Jesus knew the importance of the gift of grace. He knew that he had to be perfect or else humans would not be able to experience grace. The greatest gift given.
