A New Saint Sings in the Heavenly Choir Tonight
/Please pray for the family of Cate Cantrell as they grieve their enormous loss.
So, really, what is He saying?
/About ten minutes after I posted this, my computer died. Not just a crash--a complete refusal to get online. I can still access files and photos (thank goodness) but I can't get online. And I admit, I really thought that God was making it very clear where the pruning was happening. I have limited access to Michael's computer. It was formerly a Mac laptop. The screen burned out and now it's a Mac laptop hooked up to a Dell monitor. It's awkward and I miss my mouse. I can't figure out how to hyperlink.It took about ten minutes to link above. The only time I have access to it is when my children are sleeping or outside or otherwise engaged happily (as with my desktop) AND when Michael doesn't need it. And he's doing summer school online.So, pretty much, all the stars have to line up, all the children have to be asleep, and Michael has to be out of the house in order for me to get online. Problem is, if he's gone I can't ask him a million questions about how this works.
We spent yesterday outside, picking cherries.I have great pictures but no clue how to upload from here.
And I miss my bookmarks!
Oh, yes, about thirty minutes ago, I was firmly convinced that God's message was to walk away from time online. The computer broke. I can't get online. Maybe God is telling me to focus more completely on laundry, right?
Half an hour ago, Mary Beth came up to inform me that the washing machine isn't working. Again. It breaks more than the computer. I have no back up washing machine.
So,what exactly IS He trying to say?
Praying for Cate: Today is the day for a miracle
/From Cate's Dad this morning:
Greetings from the TCH 17th Floor waiting room, its 6:22am I amsitting watching a huge sun rise of the city of Houston. Everyone else’s life
is beginning out there, there are more cars on the streets and more horns
honking. It feels like everyone else’s life is going on as normal and ours
hangs in the balance. I don't have many words this morning I really just wanted
to ask you to pray. I am sure you get tired of hearing me say that, but we are
running out of chances. I woke up this morning saying, This is the Day the Lord
has made, let us rejoice and be glad and that is my Declaration of Hope this
morning. They are going to attempt again to wean her off the machine around
8:00am, this will be one of the last chances from what I can tell. Please
brothers and sisters in Christ pray just a little harder. Know that Ali and I
love you and as soon as I hear something I will let you know.
Urgent Prayer Request
/
Please pray for Lenny Izzo, the husband of Joan Izzo (director of my daughters' dance school and dear friend). He will undergo open heart surgery today. Our constant thoughts and prayers are with Lenny, Joan, and the children.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection,implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.Amen
