A few weeks ago my 4 year old son "L" asked me if we could go to the money store. I was confused as to where that really was so I told him that a "money store" didn't actually exist. He looked at me and said very plainly that it DID exist. I asked him where. He replied... Buffalo Run Casino. Well considering that I do not gamble I was surprissed that he thought a casino was a "money store". The wonderful world of commercials on Television.
"S" has passed away. I really do not know the state of her soul, although I was told that she said she was "ready to go". It is so hard on the family because she didn't tell anyone she was ill. One of her sisters found out only 3 weeks ago and the other 2 a week after that. The rest of us in the family found out on this past Sunday.I believe "S" was supposed to be here instead of her home when it was time to leave. She wanted to be around all her family...those who loved her and supported her unconditionally over the years. I will miss her. She was one of the most out going women I've ever known. Lord Jesus...keep her in Your hands now.
Why do I stress myself to a headache? How come I can not just let a worry go? "S" is dying and there is nothing I can do about it. I don't know if she is saved or not. I don't know if she even want to talk about salvation. "S" has been in the hospital since Sunday morning. I have not been able to go see her but hubby is there right now. I know I need to leave it all in the very capable hands of Jesus, but I can't help but worry.
There are days when all you can do is lean on the Word that says....James 5:14 "Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him,anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord."I have 2 cousins right now who have cancer. One "T" has breast cancer that has spread to her bones and "S" who has ovarian cancer which as done the same thing in her body. "S" was here at my house for a family reunion with "T" and wasn't feeling well so she went home. She didn't make it home because she is in the hospital right now.Prayer is something I continue to do suring the day. Ooohhh I'm not on my knees all day long, when I think of someone who needs prayer I lift them up right then. I may not remember the request later. James goes on to say..."The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."This is what we as a family are standing on. If you read this, please lift up both "T" and "S" to the Lord along with their families.
