Just another example of how His ways are so much higher than ours. For sure, only dirty laundry can be a blessing from our Lord.  ;)

Your faith and endurance is beautiful Jennie. Thank You.

Hey ya'll, I got a chance to use a computer again. I miss ya'll so much. Please don't think I am better than I truly am. I have questioned God in this as to "why"??? That little 3 letter word is so big. I have cried and I have felt hopeless. I am trying to see the blessings instead of the troubles and somedays I do better than others at that. We are having a lot of stress right now in dealing with all the paperwork and insurance and all. We are having a tough time even getting groceries right now but maybe when the insurance company gets through that too will ease up. I saved spare change in a box for hard times. Guess were it was? Upstairs ...of course! Now writing this to ya'll, I have lost the tears and am smiling because there are funny things like the dirty laundry, the coins for hard times and the funniest yet. Okay are ya'll ready for this one??? The work people have been out here. They were working on the ceiling and walls upstairs. In our burned out house we somehow avoided holes through the downstairs ceilings. We felt really happy about that. Yesterday as they were working, one of the workers stepped onto the ceiling of the downstairs instead of the 2x4 pieces. We heard an awful noise and the next thing you know here comes 2 legs down through the ceiling downstairs!!! Thank goodness, he was all right. Ya'll, I had to go walking outside so no one would hear me laughing! After I knew he was all right of couirse. If you could just imagine 2 legs stuck through your ceiling just wiggling like a bug! I guess it is true... He turns our tears to laughter!

Well, my time is up so ya'll keep praying for us and thank you all for your love and prayers. Just the fact that ya'll would take time out of your lives to think of us says more to my heart than I can ever put into words. I love ya'll and will get back to you as soon as I can! Jennie

We all go through hard times now and then.  And I suspect we all ask "why me?" and feel hopeless and lost, like He has left us on our own and removed His loving care.  But, always, He comes back and lets us know somehow that He not only still loves us, but that He was there with us the whole time.

You and Michael and your neighbor are in my prayers.

Love in Christ

This is a very bittersweet thread, it is joyful to read the posts by Gena, Bobby, Arcturus, Marie and Mongoose but it is painful (yet inspiring) to read what has happened to you (and how you are responding) and your family.

You are in my prayers dear Sister,

Joe

Hey ya'll, I got another chance to "borrow some time" and wanted to say how much I appreciate ya'll and miss you too. We have been blessed during this hard time and it has helped us see the goodness of people. Sometimes that is hard to remember so God has used this time to remind us. I love you every one and hope that I will soon be able to get a computer so I can "visit" with ya'll each day. Much love, Jenie
