Saturday Night
Hi to all of you out there that are following or come across this blog:
God has indeed been good to us today. Praise the Lord! Marty’s numbers are all doing what they are supposed to do, and none of them are yet too low, that we had to go to Indy today. Therefore, Marty was able to continue to do some things – like baking- that she could not do before the last hospital visit. Her shoulder is still feeling better than it was before she got the shot , but not as good as she would like. She still has to take pain medication about 3 times a day and even with that still has some discomfort. It couldn’t be that she is using it too much – no never! She also had a little pain in her hip today, but that again was no doubt doing to much yesterday. Spirits are good but I think feeling a lot of pressure to get things done before the numbers go down to low and the kids come. I keep telling her not to worry about it , rest a little and it will all work out. But you know Marty she is a true Martha.
We are looking forward to tomorrow, the Christmas services we think are some of the best of the year. We also enjoy the cantata very much and were really sorry that we missed it last week. We understand that it really went well. The candle light service tomorrow night is always an awesome service. Particularly when you stand up in front and watch that light spread to the back of the sanctuary, what a beautiful sight! And of course it is a beautiful sight when you see God’s light growing in the world. The past four or five months we have seen so much of God’s light and it has been wonderful. We have seen it not only in our own lives but in the lives of others.
Today sitting in the waiting room at Dukes for the CBC to be done Marty got talking to a woman and the conversation, when the woman asked, got around to what Marty’s problem was. And then all that was talked about. When the lady got called to go back in ER with the friend she had come in with, she said that she would pray for Marty. We do not believe that the lady knows us, we never told her our names, and yet she is going to pray for Marty and God will know who she means. Thanks and praise be to God. What an awesome God. Marty and I then got to talking about this and about the number of people, prayer circles, congregations, and other groups are praying for her. How wonderful it is to be a part of a community that will pick up the need and/or needs of an individual that they may not even know and take the time to lift them up to the Lord. That is the Light of Christ shining and we are giving thanks and praise for it.
Thank you too for your support and prayers.
Have a positive day, be with your community of faith and glorify God, and know God’s presence and blessing is with you.
