So this is day nine of a new cycle. A rather weird cycle, if I might add. I've been pretty crampy the last few days and my back has been sore. Also been exhausted all day long.
Maybe it's just stress or working too much. We'll see what happens. God is always in control, even when our lives appear out of control.
I've learned so much these last few months. Growing closer to God through my trials. I've learned to depend more on Him and less on everyone else. And I've come to realize that as great as friends are, there are times in life that you have to go alone. Those are the times we grow the most. But they are also the times when we feel the most lonely. I have some of these times coming.
This weekend we are going to South Carolina as I mentioned in a previous entry. We are going to spend Saturday and Sunday with my husband's grandfather. He has congenital heart failure and may not be around much longer. Last night we went shopping for a gift for his special day. He will be 93 years old. We are getting him a large print Bible with his name engraved on it. Our hope and prayer is that he will spend this year growing closer to God. Pawpaw is a great man and I am so happy that he has had an opportunity to watch his grandchildren grow up and have their own kids. And I am grateful that he has had a chance to meet Hailey, our daughter. Praying often for my husband and father-in-law during this time. It isn't easy on any of us, but I know it's even harder on them. God will get us all through this just like He always has. One thing is for sure, we serve an amazing and faithful God :)
