Praising, Praying, and Waiting

Praising...

...the Lord that my brother and his family are safe. Their home was struck by lightening while they were home this week. The upper level has fire, smoke, and water damage. They will need to find temporary housing for approximately 3 months while their home is being repaired.


Praying...

...for my mom as she meets with her oncologist next week to determine a plan of treatment for her newly diagnosed ovarian and endometrial cancers. Praying that the Lord would protect her and guide her and for wisdom in decision making.


Waiting...

...for the arrival of our newest addition. I have been having a lot of Braxton hicks for the last 2 days, but nothing regular, yet. Just a lot of discomfort. We will keep you all posted.

You keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you.
Trust in the Lord forever,
for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.
Isaiah 26:3-4

The Girls

So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18
