Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

God's Timing/ Grandparents

God knew we needed this time to care for Theron's parents. We have taken some trips to Tennessee, although not as many trips as his sisters have taken. There are decisions to be made for them. Things are getting packed up. Facilities are being checked out.
My heart aches for them. This couple that has been together all of their married lives is now seperated by circumstances beyond their control.
He - in a rehab facility recovering from a punctured lung and three broken ribs.
She - dependant on someone to drive her to visit him.
Neither one of them ask for much.
During my short time knowing them, I've not heard one of them complain.
He - would take the kids for "tractor" rides with his lawnmower.
She - made a special doll for Hannah that is very precious to her.
In the past when we've visited, we would attend services with them at their church in Mine City. Now they are not able to go.
Theron is dealing with all this. So many changes.
We don't know what tomorrow holds, but we must Trust God.

Waiting

Some people say this is the hardest part and I agree.
Our excitement has waned and we are clueless as to when anything will happen.
This is where trust really comes in.
Waiting on God's perfect timing and his choice for us and the kids that are out there.
Praying, waiting, trusting.
