She's still being fed via IV and her doctors haven't yet taken off the tube that's suctioning out all of the undigested goo in her intestines but she is getting better. We're just happy and relieved to hear that AJ is no longer in much pain as she'd been for over a week.
Meanwhile, on other thoughts...
In commemoration of Christ's death on the cross at Calvary, I stand in awe as I realize that Christianity is indeed the most liberating experience any human being can ever go through. Knowing that His death paid for all of my sins and that no other sacrifice is needed or will ever measure up to the sacrifice of His crucifixion and separation from the Father gave me that renewed sense of freedom - freedom from the bondage of traditions and man-made customs. Freedom from fear of myths and superstitions. And most importantly, freedom from the chains of religion.
Christ did it all more than two thousand years ago, he walked a righteous life for more than thirty years here on earth so that when he died in my place, his righteousness would be mine also. He endured beatings, spats on his face, insults, incrimination and ultimately death so that I may never have to go through all of it anymore. What a great God we serve! What undeserving grace for a wretched sinner like me!
For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.
- 1 Timothy 2: 5-6
