Taking a Break

-
I have so much going on in our lives right now and to be honest, I have neither the time nor desire to blog at the moment.

Hopefully, I'll be back in a week or two but I didn't want to just stay silent here. Thank you for your prayers!

    Wednesday words of encouragement

    So many times you have encouraged me . Today I woke with these words from Isaiah in my head and thought of you,

    Fear not,for I have redeemed you
    I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
    When you pass through the waters
    I will be with you
    and when you pass through the rivers they will not sweep over you.
    When you walk through the fire you will not be burned..........

    Much love,
    L.x.

    Dear Terri, Lynn thought how nice it would be if we gave back to you some of the words of encouragement.

    Psalm 121 is one that I used to read to my husband when he was in hospital last year, and these words I send to you with love;

    The Lord watches over you-
    The Lord is your shade at your right hand;
    The sun willl not harm you by day,
    Nor the moon by night.
    The Lord will keep you from all harm-
    he will watch over your life.

    "I said, "I am falling", but your constant love, O Lord, held me up. Whenever I am anxious and worried, you comfort me and make me glad."
    ~ Psalm 94:18-19

    You ladies are the BEST!!!! Thank you so much. I love the scripture and I am clinging to His word. The Lord is definitely working this all out for His good but it's been hard!

When the Unexpected Pops Up

On Thursday afternoon, just as Dan and I were getting ready to leave for a meeting, we received a phone call from our son. He was sitting on the side of the road with a blown engine in his car. The problem is he lives 3 1/2 hours away. After back and forth phone calls he called a tow truck and got it towed to a garage. He ended up renting a car and headed here for the holiday. We've been working with him to figure out his next steps because he still owes thousands of dollars on the car which will also take a significant amount to replace the engine. His rent is going up in the new year. His seasonal job ended and he is trying to find something else, but needs a car for that to happen. His car still has not been looked at by the mechanic. It is all more than a little overwhelming. Long story short, we extended an invitation for him to live here temporarily so he can get out from under all of this. It would save him money on expensive rent and utilities.  The timing was right since h...

Down an Old Familiar Road

We are on the cusp of Easter, and this year it has suddenly become a difficult one. I have no plans for tomorrow other than going to church in the morning. We will see what the afternoon holds. On Thursday night, my mother-in-law took a turn for the worse and developed a high fever. She has an infection, the sepsis is back, and the pressure wound on her ankle has not healed and is open down to the tendons. Yesterday, she was put on hospice care and it's now a waiting game. Her pain is being managed and she is provided comfort, but no other medical intervention will be happening. I've been down this road before with my own mother and it's hard. And this decision stirred up memories of that terrible time 5 years ago. It's difficult to know how long it will be and it's hard to make decisions of any kind about anything. I was on my way to go for a walk at my favorite place yesterday when Dan called me. He told me to go ahead and finish the walk and when I got home he...
