Water
Water, not the kind you like. You can't bath in it or swim in it! When I came down stairs yesterday morning my new floors (in an area) had water all over them, after I grabbed a bowl and towels to clean up the mess and catch the rest of the water dripping out of the ceiling, this is how much more water came out.....There was some kind of leak in our kids bathroom. After cleaning out some of my clothes and shoes from my closet so we could cut a hole in the wall, we found their shower had an out pour of water at the facet. We meaning the plumber!!! But by the end of the day I thought who really cares, it's just water, money, and a mess. Seriously though . I have a lot of friends that have a lot more serious things going on right now. I couldn't sleep last night, sometimes my heart literally aches for people. It's hard when all you can do is be there for people and pray, but I guess maybe that's all they need. Just to know they are loved!!!

you are right...it is only water, money, and a mess....because i'm so all about me i'm hoping i got in on some of those prayers this morning.....i certainly qualify. and you know what i was thinking this morning? about the hundreds of thousands of ppl in myanmar either dead or displaced by the cyclone....it's always good to have perspective. and then i thought about Job and thought man, what if i didn't have anything to be thankful for....ok comment is turning into blog post....ahahahhaha....
anyway, so glad your my friend. funny how things work out sometimes isn't it? remember me telling heather i was taking friend applications? :)
You must have known....rough night last night....this whole thing is hard on everyone. We just keep praying for God's provision and a miracle healing....I KNOW HE can do it...love you lots....
I remeber the friend application I applied and then you left me hanging! I guess this far away friendship will have to do....So glad your my friend!!
God is in the business of MIRACLES!! I will continue to pray for everyone!!!!love you too!!
with the internet, cell phones, etc, etc....is there really a far away friendship?! just say no to make me feel better.....
Glad to know people are praying. Sorry it keeps you up late, but it's good to know that I am loved. We will be finding out more on Monday -more tests. Sorry about your floors though - that is kind of annoying. You have always seemed to manage finding a good perspective...like turning an irritating water mess on your floors into prayers for others. You are an exceptional person. As much as I tease you (mostly because you deserve it) you are exceptional.
Love you Beth.
