I noticed three gifts that God provided on Friday.
- Little did I know as I wrote Friday’s post that I would need my own advice to serve my own soul. Friday morning I was late getting up and ready for the day but with my own words still lingering in my head I made time for God’s word.
- Brian Eaton introduced the Desiring God staff on Friday morning to the new Children Desiring God curriculum, Rejoicing in God’s Good Design: A Study for Youth on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, by taking us through a lesson. It was good to be reminded, again, that God is intentional in all that he does.
- Paul’s primary doctor was available at the moment we needed her.
There were a thousand additional ‘small’ things that God did for me and for you on Friday that went unnoticed. But we only get to live in that ignorance because Jesus is so powerful:
He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. Hebrews 1:3a
Amazing.
We needed to admit our boy to the hospital on Friday so I’m going to skip a few days blogging. Or maybe not; there’s an awful lot of ‘hurry up and wait’ from previous experiences and I might have the time.
John praying for Pauly this morning and with you and your family, and for
you and family. I give thanks for Pauly – the witness that God has made
him to be in the church and world. Grace and Peace to you . Soli Deo
Gloria, Soli De Gloria!
Praying for all of you, John. Pauly has a tender place in our hearts…as your whole family does.
I’m so very sorry to hear Paul is suffering — and as child suffers, parent suffers — and as friend suffers, our hearts ache in prayer. May the Lord grant healing, mercies and the encouragement of many more blessings large and small. Praise God we live by the wonder-working power of the Blood!
