Well, I'm late writing for many reasons. Most of the reasons probably aren't good enough. Here's my thoughts:
- My sister is still recovering. It turns out what happened to her was caused by the doctor she went to. Her sickness did not actually cause it. We're watching her closely. The entire family has grown much closer after that.
- My marriage is still as it was before. I'm still praying...even though I've struggled more recently. It's hard to have faith in a miracle when there are no signs of one. But then again...thats why its called faith.
- I fell recently. I made the decision to stand up instead of stay down. I can't fathom life away from the Lord and if I stay down...thats what happens.
- Pastor Jay Alford, from Youngstown, Ohio died a couple weeks ago. I'll tell you this: I've never met a more authentic preacher then this man. I'm glad to have been part of his church as a child. He was a gentle speaker, but the words God blessed him with would penetrate your very being. I'm happy to celebrate his passing just because I know he is probably hugging Jesus right now.
Its weird...life is filled with so much uncertainty right now....yet I feel peace. Thank you, Lord.

There is much uncertainty in my world too, Derek...and I know the same peace. There's no turning back now!
