God is good!


This is a short description of this past week while

with my parents for Dad's anuerysm repair.


Busy day
Long day
Good day
Fear and worry melted into
success and healing
loneliness became family
and friends' familiar faces
tears of anguish
became tears of joy and peace
S~I~G~H R~E~L~I~E~F
And prayers of pleas were answered becoming
Prayers of praise rendered.


Dad's surgery was great! Everything as planned. Left at 615 AM. Call at 850 surgery began. Call at 1040, closing…noon recovery and x rays…one pm….we saw his tired but relieved it was over face….then tears of release as Dad learned his minister and 5 church buddies were waiting with us....(Bob Green, Charlie Harris, Horton Landreth, Herman Brackett, Donald Smart, Pastor Joey)
What a beautiful moment to share with the man responsible for 1/3 of my life (Mom 1/3 and God 1/3) for without them I would not be here to help these two, my mom and dad….


A tired family
Walks toward the lights of home
A healing man taught his daughter

about the fruit of the spirit (Galatians 5:22-23)
He exemplifies them all.
A pure woman worries and frets over details

God is handling but never ceases to do her part.
A fatigued and tired but inspired daughter strives

to be worthy of the two parents God gave her.

God is good, indeed - and what a lovely post this is! I am so happy that your Dad came through surgery so well - and that God is so much a part of your family. You are rich indeed!
