Last week was certainly a busy week for us around here. We did lots of different things. I almost don't remember all that we did at this point.
On Monday, a friend of mine came over in the morning to do our Bible study we are doing on Spiritual gifts by Eddie Rasnake. It has been a good thing to be involved in a daily time with God. It helps to get me into the Word on a daily basis, without it I wouldn't do it because I chose not to do it sadly enough. I just don't have the discipline to do it on my own without a guidance. Is it wrong of me to not dig into the Word on my own without something pushing me towards it? I don't know, probably in some respect it is.
Monday evening my home was filled with a bunch of testosterone cause my husband had a worship discipleship night. He leads our worship ministry at the church we attend. He holds a once-a-month discussion time for anyone interested in worship. They talk about a topic or scripture and then take time to pray for the worship ministry as a whole.
On Tuesday, I went to spend the day with my sister-in-law who is here from out of town for the day. It was a good relaxing day.
On Wednesday the kids and I ran errands in the morning and went to the doctor for my 6 month old's well baby check. While there I mentioned something to my doctor that has been weighing on my heart and mind for awhile. I mentioned to them about the opening at the back of his throat. We were told that he has a partial cleft palette that needs to be seen by a specialist and then repaired at some point and time in the near future. Hearing this news really kind of freaked me out a bit. I didn't want to believe it, but somehow I just knew that is what it was after doing the research I had done. So now we are facing getting our finances in order to help take care of this need. At this point we have no insurance so tomorrow afternoon I will be filling out a bunch of paperwork to try and get my baby covered under some government assistance. So prayers in this area of life would be greatly appreciated.
The rest of the week held little things here and there like Women's prayer group, family night, date night, panic attack, stress, small group.
So today I am left searching my heart about several things about my recent stress and how it is affecting me and why I am letting it affect me so. Is most of my stress having to do with the situation with my baby and the financial things involved with that or is there something else. As I continue on this journey of figuring things out with God I know that all things are possible and that he will take care of us. I am His child. He loves me. I am going to try to rest in that.
