As I am in the car crying away, my friend Terry calls out of the blue. She ministered to me and we prayed over the phone. And she urged me to pick up one of my favorite books are start praying. It is called "Power of a Praying Wife." And it works. I have read it many times, loaned it out once and didn't get it back and then bought another copy. It is that good.
I spent yesterday at Angie's house for the last time. I helped her clean (the high spots - yes, that was a friendly jab at Ang.) and watched her home become empty. Very heart wrenching for me and I know it must have been more painful for Angie.
It was a very tough day.....
The best thing that happened yesterday, was Pat and I had a much needed family prayer AND LISTEN for God's voice. We tend to do a lot of family prayers, but few of them are with silently waiting for answers. The girls were involved and even though they didn't quite know what was going on, they jumped in with their own concerns, which happened to be about the stress that we project. God continued to give us answers though out the night and morning. I realize that I have a problem with submitting to my husband, when I am unsure if he is being led by God. Although I do know that their is more to it and I am not the only one to blame, at least it is more information to pray about. If anything, I am at peace..... and that is good.
Today will be another tough day, as we go to the park and say good-bye to Angie and her boys.
