The terminal disease I have is the same one that you have. We all have sinned. We all have come short of God's glory. We have all been given a death sentence. Some of us will taste death sooner than others. Some of us will have to face more pain than others. Regardless, we will all have to walk that same path. The question is, what's on the other side?
As a believer in Jesus Christ, I have full confidence that I will see HIM on the other side, whether that be very soon or another 40 or more years. I take great joy in knowing that.
This week I'm so thankful for that joy.
Several of my friends have been going through physical trials. I thank the Lord for taking care of my friends and keeping them safe.
My husband, after 10 years of having to work every weekend, is now going on a different work schedule. He will have every Sunday off work! Praise the Lord! This has been a huge prayer for a very long time. It has been difficult to get 5 kids to church by myself every Sunday. I'm not sorry that I put forth the effort, but I'm so glad that now we can all go to church as a family.

I am praying for you sweetie.
I love the last part! It is indeed an answered prayer and it is really a joy to go to church as a family.
I wonder how your husband survive for 10 years working on a Sunday. Probably because of your fervent prayer.
Blessings!
what a blessing that will be to finally get to attend church together as a family. (I know all too well what it is like to attend alone with the kids.)
Bless you and your family and may the Lord heal your friends.
God bless your grateful heart, rita. God is good. i'm happy for your answered prayer.
That's wonderful news that you husband can finally come to church with you! Wow, that's a long time to wait for the prayed-for answer!!
You're so right about the terminal condition in all of us ~ but I hope you'll get some medical answers soon! Not knowing what's going on is the hardest part.
We need to thank God for our blessings more often! Thanks for the reminder!!!!
Have a blessed week!
Prayer is powerful tool! Bless you.
Hi Rita,

I am happy for you that your husband will now be able to attend church with your family. How nice that will be.
Good news about your husband's new schedule. A good example on why we should never give up and stop praying when are prayer's aren't answered right away.
Blessings,
Joan
