BORED BUT THANKFUL...

Well, we are still in the hospital!  My husband had emergency surgery six days ago - adhesions had wrapped around his small intestine, totally blocking all function.  He's doing very well, we're just waiting, waiting, waiting...for function to return.  Until then he stays put.

We were supposed to be in Kansas City with these folks for the weekend for some R & R.  They just cancelled their reservations and came here to encourage us.  We are really blessed!

Lots of others have encouraged us with visits and food (for me).  I am reminded once again how good the church is and what a blessing they are to us!  I'm a little bored - I would've thought I would love to read and play on the computer all day but even after a few days of only that I am learning once again how much I love balance.  Really missing getting out and about, exercising, and just doing everyday tasks.

I have been enjoying these beautiful views from our third floor window!  

I like this paraphrase from the The Message of I Thess. 5:18  In everything give thanks...

Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live.
