I’ve had a cough now for 6 weeks. Nights without sleep catch up with you and make you cranky. We put my 94-year old father in an AFC home this past week – not an easy decision to make, especially when all the family is not on board with that choice – lack of unity brings lots of stress.
I woke up this morning thinking about my friend, Don, how even in the mist of a storm he smiled. He loved life and no matter what he was going through he always had an encouraging word and an upbeat attitude, truly believing that no matter what was going on around him, God was in control. “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for Thou art with me; thy rod and staff comfort me.” He knew without doubt that he would dwell in the house of the Lord forever. That’s how he lived his life. What a great testimony.
When you walk through the mire and the muck of life – look up. You’ll be surprised at what you see. God can lead you to quiet waters and restore your soul; He can guide you to a better place free of mire and muck!
