Dear Family,
For the first time
in forever, I followed someone around like a puppy dog. I’ll admit it – I missed Bobby this week. I am very glad he is home. I even did errands with him just to be
close. Normally I am not a clingy
person. Saturday was a different
story. I miss normal me but I am enjoying
Bobby, so much it doesn’t matter.
I did know this
week would bring a lonely tinge because both Bobby and Seth were gone at
camp. I told Adriel to give me some time
with her and she obliged. I took her out
to lunch once. She hung out at home with
me one evening. I enjoyed her company.
I am thankful for
friends who walk with me or that I have talking dates with. God keeps me company and I do enjoy my kitty
Skyra who follows me wherever I go.
God is so
good! I felt anxiety reaching out to
people our church has prayed for last year.
Asking people about answered prayer is intimidating because it is so
personal. It feels invasive. I asked them how God answered and if I could
add it to a book for Church eyes only. I
felt rewarded and uplifted in the end because the overwhelming response was, “Thanks
for asking, God is at work and, yes, you may add the request and answer.” I feel blessed because we rejoice at what God
has done and is doing.
Timothy Fairchild preached
an amazing sermon. When pastor Marcus
asked us to pray for Timothy on Wednesday during prayer group I added Tim to my
list. I was thrilled to learn he was
preaching. THEN when the sermon was
straight from God to me I felt humbled, awed and joyous. Yay God!
How exciting to
see Wally and Ginny Hyde for the first time in 10 years. How wonderful to hug old friends and catch
up. They were at our church
visiting. Yay!! I really enjoyed showing them our grown-up
Seth. They knew him when he was three
years old. Now he was doing the sound
for church and busy with that work.
Bobby was glad to
say he enjoyed a smooth, wonderful camp experience. He was glad to be the director and Seth was
glad to be a camper. Seth even said, “See
you next year,” to a new friend at camp.
I am glad Seth expects to go next year.
Yay God!
May you remain
content in blessings and in sorrow. May
you find God comfort, enlighten and be with you throughout the day. May your peace come from knowing you are so
very loved.
Hugs,
Cristy
