Bubba and I spent the day out at Nana's house starting the long and arduous task of clearing out things that are no longer needed. Bub has worked a little along on it, but now is the time to get the job done.
Every now and then I would find some old photo or newspaper clipping that would grab my interest and cause a pause in work......... a light moment in the midst of a hard, sad job.
One time I thought I heard what sounded like a covey of beavers nibbling on the house, only to find out that it was the nice man next door working on the front window. He has been doing some repairs, but I didn't know he'd be working today.
We left nine bags of trash by the two full trash cans for the pick up tomorrow. We have Irvin's truck parked in front to do some major hauling as the week goes on.
We went by to see Aunt Dottie and took her two doughnuts. She was thrilled.....they will be her dinner. She is still winning the house in Bingo, I don't know how she does it. She's feeling good and seems happy.
Amanda and Mark leave Lunexa early tomorrow morning. They have had a whirlwind weekend of activities. Amanda is now sick with an ear infection and is ready to leave the one small room they have lived in for the last three days.
As far as they can tell, this is a group of people who want to be taught the whole truth of Scripture in an expository way.
It will be two weeks before the church votes on them according to protocol. So they must go home and "wait patiently for the Lord."
God has provided an appointment for Eli with the pediatric neurologist on Wednesday.......the same doctor that told them it would be six months before he could see them. This is another example of God's faithfulness to their needs......a direct answer to many prayers.
No better for me in my situation....only worse. My heart is broken, but God is in control.
May we all find our joy in Christ and in those we love, in helping and serving others, and in putting their needs before our own pleasures. To God be the glory!!!!
