Thursday the 13th was a good day, first it was one of my best friend’s birthdays and also my dad’s birthday, he would have been 89 years old. He celebrated his 26th birthday in Heaven this year. Thursday was also good because I got good news from the agency about families for Bryson. Bryson also had a doctor’s appointment with his new Diabetes doctor. The team was amazing and we learned about new technology for Bryson’s insulin pump that will make it easier to manage. FIST PUMP FOR TECHNOLOGY!
Yesterday, I visited one of my cousins who lives in the valley and it was good to catch up with her and also to use some of my 100,000 words that have been building up over the last few weeks because of not having as much physical contact with people.
Today, well it’s cloudy and we are expecting a thunderstorm in the next few hours. It is also cloudy in my mind and my stomach feels a bit like a thunderstorm. I have been waiting for something in the mail here that I need for Bryson’s application to move forward and I found out it went to Indiana instead. So I’m anxious. I have been wrestling in my brain asking God why? While I was brushing my teeth, I heard Him whisper to me, “I have the timing right”. I need to trust that whisper, but it is hard. God has done many miracles this week and He will continue. I have to remind myself that the timing of our Arizona Adventure is perfect, numerous events occurred over this summer that proves that. If we would have moved ahead last fall/winter like I wanted, I believe we would have experienced more complications.
Waiting on God is hard, waiting is not one of my spiritual gifts, waiting triggers memories of past experiences. So as I sit here typing, I know that I am putting these thoughts into words so that I can read them for myself and surrender to my Almighty Father who KNOWS, CARES and has me safely in His hands.
The water here has been very hard on my hair, thanks to my amazing hair stylist, she recommended a hard water product to order. Amazon overnight for the win, I went into town to the closest Amazon locker to pickup this morning and on the way home as I was waiting on a stop light, I looked up and saw this picture below. As I looked, I saw three crosses where Jesus died on the hill for me and you. I know it was God speaking to me again, reminding me of His presence here in the desert with me, as I wait. I think the cacti might be fake up there on top of the hill, they look too perfect, but whether they are real or not, they stand tall and God used them to speak to me.
The clouds are definitely rolling in here, Bryson currently has 4 football games on the tv screen at the same time and it looks like we need to hunker down to experience our first desert thunderstorm.
Thanks for reading, praying and all of your encouragement during this adventure.
I must be related to you😉
Waiting is one of the hardest things for me ever!
I feel ya sister!💜
Thankful for His speaking
He so cares for you ❤️🙏🏻
