A New Post!!!

God is so good!  He is good - all the time...  no matter the outcome.  I think of Job saying " 15Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him." (Job 13:15)  In other words God is trustworthy even in the worst situations... and in the best.

Last night our Church had a prayer meeting.  We were directed to pray in groups, and praise God for who He is, and how he has proved Himself to us in nature etc.  As we began to pray, and praise, we heard a huge roll of thunder.  It was as if He said to us, "Yes, even thunder - in the dead of winter...  I did that!"

We probably miss daily evidence of Him in our lives - because we are so busy.  We're busy working, playing, thinking, worrying, burden bearing...  but even in a simple roll of thunder - He says, "I'm here!"

Nathan is stronger and stronger.  His headaches seem manageable, at least that is what he tells me.  He has an incredible tolerance for pain.  However, what seems to be an issue at this time, is fatigue.  I am told this is a normal response to brain injury.  Patients begin to feel "normal" and they try to maintain their schedule they had before the injury.  It quickly catches up with them.  So, I would ask that you pray for Nate's fatigue, and that he would be mindful that he needs to take it slowly.

Thank you SO much for your prayers.  What they have meant, you may never know...  but God has heard and I am forever grateful.

With all my heart~

Psalm 33: 18-22
18 But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him,
   on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
19 to deliver them from death
   and keep them alive in famine.
 20 We wait in hope for the LORD;
   he is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts rejoice,
   for we trust in his holy name.
22 May your unfailing love be with us, LORD,
   even as we put our hope in you.

  1. Such blessings from our amazing God!

    Thanks for the reminder of that, Julie -
    I'll keep praying for energy, as well as that he remembers to take it more slowly and allow himself time.

    All praises be to the King of kings!

  2. Do you have power like God's? Can you thunder with a voice like his?
    Job 40:9

    What grace the Father continues to show in that we are his children. Bless you all as you continue your journey.
