10.26.12

This morning I had the pleasure of seeing my daughter in a very grown up manner.  I have the bravest little girl. She sat right down and said how its no big deal to get blood work and then declared she just doesn't like it when she feels it. To which I said, well each time you would never know you felt it because you are always so brave! Then I said look at all the pretty colored tubes tell me the colors and as she was saying the colors, she said in this sweet matter of fact voice, I FELT THAT, then went right back to the colors. To which the nurse smiled and repeated it in the same soft voice and said why can't every patient be like you... Mackenzie didn't answer.. I have the bravest little girl! Love you, Mackenzie!!! My prayer is that the test comes back with the answers we seek.  Whether it's negative or positive, we will deal with it, for we know we have God holding us close as we hold him in the Highest regard.  

I spoke about the conversation my son had regarding the family situation yesterday.  Thank you all for the care and concern, we feel the love and support.  I know it will not be the only one and as a VERY wise woman said, "not everything that's broken can be fixed-but healing is still possible" I need to keep reminding myself that we are the process of this and it does NOT happen overnight.  I am grateful for this reminder and appreciate the guidance.  

As many are bracing for Sandy, I am worried about those who have a lot less than we do.  A friend of mine is a Director of an organization that works in Haiti and they are being slammed with many horrible things due to Sandy and they still have not recovered from the Earthquake.  If you are looking for something to donate to for the Holidays... Maybe consider this organization... I can guarantee they are helping...

Even my sister from far away is worried about us with this storm... lets worry about others that need it more...

Dear Heavenly Father,

You are the most High.  As your children all around brace for Sandy, I ask that you help them to find the refuge in all that you do.  Please keep  all those who are sick especially Sister Helen, Sister Pat, Robin, Peggy, Kelly, Ellen, Carol, Bob, Kenny, Janet, Joseph, Donna and my friend who remains nameless..., Those who are traveling and/or overseas especially Emmy please help them to stay safe and arrive safely.  All those who are looking for work including; Robin  please help them to find work.  All of the animals, Pastor Mary, Pastor Arnie and their families please keep them in your Glorious embrace always.  

Amen
