Waiting...

This have been a 'funny summer', well we don't get much of a summer here in NY, but we have had several days with high humidity so everyone is going 'crazy' because of the heat wave.

I just noticed something very strange, the trees didn't bloom as other years, their foliage isn't as beautiful and thick as other years and even some trees got fall foliage on them.

While all this is happening we are waiting, too. It was a great gift from Our Lord to win My Boricua's claim. It has been very emotional, for once we are very grateful and at the same time is very sad because we can't ignore the fact that My Boricua is sick and our lives will never be the same or at least 'normal'.

I don't complain, because I have learned to live one day at the time, we no longer make plans for future dates or movie nights, because we don't know how My Boricua will feel that specific day, instead He will tell me if his pain is somewhat manageable and than we'll go from there. I love him so much it just breaks my heart to see him in pain.

Cotty,
Thanks so much for YOUR prayers for us. It is my privilege to take you and your dear hubby and your children before the Lord. He has all things worked out.He does hear the desires of our hearts, and sometimes the answers don't appear to be what SEEMS like would be best...at first. But when we look back at the time in which HE chose to bring the results, we know He was working on us and changing us ....(inside) to become even closer to HIM, to look more to HIM to work those things out , and less on ourselves...
This is HIS way of stopping our "striving" to do things ourselves...to feel like it all depends on US...like we have to take control. He wants us to know HE IS IN CONTROL. just to do what we know we CAN do, and totally leave the rest in HIS hands.
I am praying for HIS ABSOLUTE Best and blessings for you as you wait to hear the answers. Trust in HIM with all your heart. Do not lean on what you "understand"...In all your daily ways, acknowledge that HE is working in you and for you....His presence, and HE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATHS and give you guidance. Hugs to you Cotty. I am praying for your week...LOVED YOUR PHOTOS.
IT is good to live life one day at a time, and to remember that our days and whatever comes our way, will be what we make of it in our hearts and minds. We can choose to be postive. RAH for you!!! xo Julie
