So, I've been REALLY busy and have had a crazy summer so far. As you may know, my BIL, SIL and niece have been staying with us for a few weeks. You see, when they were on their way back to Houston from visiting us on Spring Break, they felt that God was leading them to move to Arkansas (they moved from here to Houston four years ago). We NEVER expected them to come back our direction. They were both born and raised in Texas and love it there. But, when God tells you to move, you move. So, they moved, knowing God had a reason.
Sometimes when God has a plan and we are asked to do things, we don't always know WHY we are asked. We don't always get to see God's plan unfold before us. In this case, we did. We may not know all of his plan, but we know at least part of it. Let me explain. Last week, we found out my MIL has cancer. She was not showing signs of cancer when they were here in March. She has always had her share of health problems, but nothing immediate. The cancer is rare, inoperable and fast growing. We don't know how much time she has left, but we do know that God has a plan. And in that, we are comforted.
So, for now we are trying to spend as much time as possible with her. As I said, we know God has a plan.
I'll be thinking about you and your family. Having a sick loved one is so incredibly sad and stressful.
ReplyDeleteOh Tanya, I am so sorry to read this that I have a thunk in my chest. I knew you were absent, but I had no clue that this was the reason. I am a praying woman, and I will pray for your beautiful MIL and your husband and the whole family. I pray these last days are peaceful and overflowing with love.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for you and and your family, Tanya. This is just heartbreaking news. I'm thinking about you and yours, and praying for you.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear this, and will be praying. But God is still in the business of miracles. We won't give up yet!
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteOh Tanya..I'm so sorry. I'll be sending prayers all the way from Florida!
