When It Rains, It Pours

Why does it seem like everything decides to go wrong at the same time?

I know this is dramatic and not really true...but sometimes it sure feels like it.

Recently my family and friends have had to deal with some tough situations...

I'd like to ask all my blog friends to remember these people in your prayers. I don't usually do this sort of thing, but I feel like I just have to...

-my grandma (on my dad's side of the family) is currently undergoing radiation and chemo for bladder cancer...
-my other grandma (on my mom's side of the family) is fighting congestive heart failure...
-my uncle virgil if fighting liver and stomach cancer...we just found out that with the rate it is progressing, he may only have a few months left with us...
-my neighbor, reggie, was in a hunting accident this weekend and may lose his foot. his 8 year old son was with him and saw the whole thing...
-my dad's employee, mark, had an accident today with a weed eater which lacerated his forearm and fractured his ulna and radius...

i know that the Lord is sovereign, but that doesn't always make the tough times any easier.

thank you for your prayers...



For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.
As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:8-9
