For those of you who actually have been looking for me, I am profoundly grateful! I do have so much trouble remaining faithful to my blog. But for what it's worth, I'll always try to be honest about it.
For the last couple of months, things in my life have been insane. Crazy busy trying to be everywhere at once. And that's ok, because crazy busy is my normal life. But it's also been a sad time for our family. After recently loosing my cousin Connie to a very long battle with cancer, my family also lost my dear Aunt Kat this past Easter Sunday. She struggled to breath for such a long time with lung disease.
Both of these ladies were from two different generations and yet had a very similar, wonderful and profound impact on each life they touched. Now we rely on the gift of their presense in our lives to give us the strength we need to go on without them. They are already incredibly missed! Sadly still, tonight, Aunt Kat's surviving husband is in the hospital as I write this. He suffered a stroke on Saturday. He is doing better, but not yet out of the woods. But we remain hopeful and prayerful.
I do so many other things in my life, but they seem so meaningless when someone I love is sick. What once felt productive, just seems like unimportant busy work. Something to do while we wait and pray for good news.
But busy, we must be. For we cannot just sit and worry. We do no good to anyone that way. So, tonight I ask God to be with the my family members who are sick and those who tirelessly care for them. I am thinking of you and praying for you all tonight.
May God Bless you, and know that I love you all,
