The story
I looked through a box of encouragement cards this morning, seeking one for a sick friend. I also found a message for myself: "God has not only read your story, He wrote it" (Max Lucado). It quotes Jeremiah 29:11, "...'I know what I am planning for you,' says the Lord. 'I have good plans for you...I will give you hope and a good future.'"
That takes me back to my post earlier about days and nights. A friend wrote back in agreement, then reminded me of this amazing and wonderful fact: "To You [God] the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are both alike to You" (Psalm 139:12).
I slept so well last night, making up I guess for many wakeful hours the night before (not worried, just wakeful). Last night was Chuck's "turn." I get very prayed for when he can't sleep. Actually, he and all of you get prayed for when I can't. I hope tonight we both sleep soundly.
The doctor couldn't find a cause for Gavin's pain. We pray it will simply clear up.
The husband of our new-kidney friend is still in the hospital, undiagnosed.
Off to get blood drawn for the CA 125. Hope to have results tomorrow.
Love,
Carol

Love ya Mimi! Hopefully talk to you soon.
Carol,
After reading your blog this morning & thinking about the scripture from Jeremiah reminded me (again) of Milton's song that he sang on Sunday morning - "He Knows My Name, He Knows my every thought." I told Milton that it was encouraging & good to be reminded that He knows my name -- and YOUR name!! What a powerful thought!! Praying for you today & everyday.
Blessings,
Carolyn
