I am not sure how to label this moment just yet, but I do know we need to pray.

This escapade we are trudging through definitely has its moments of joy, and its moments of questions. After 2 weeks of settling in to a home routine, yikes... things quickly can change

At some point in the night dad’s very limited vision started to alter ... not in a good way.

After a very early morning conversation with his eye guy, Dad is going now to find out what exactly is happening. As we wait for information please pray we are patient, have peace and are wise in our decisions. Also pray for the Dr. as he examines dads eye again to determine just what is going on.

I was talking with a friend of mine who has been going through her own personal adventure of suffering. Her perspective on life was changed a few months ago, through a series of events that, I am sure she would have chosen differently if she had been given the choice. The basics of the conversation circled around Peace Faith and Hope. Hope of when everything looks so bleak somehow God will show us a silver lining.

Faith of the knowledge that through all things the Glory of God will be shown. Regardless if it be miracles, or attitudes, or...only God knows. And Peace. The calming that only God can provide during the tempest of the storm that is raging about us.

“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. Romans 5, 1-4”

  1. hi! i don't know if I made this comment and it didn't post, or if you erased it. No problem. I was saying there is a website called postcrossing.com where you can exchange postcards - randomly - all over the world. I thought you Dad might enjoy receiving those as he recuperates. It's a free service.
