Mom is Failing Fast

Dear Friends,

God bless you, your loved ones and your ministries this week!

This weekend we drove through a snowstorm with cars off the road to the left and the right to see my mom who is failing fast. It's a good thing that we did. It was a heartbreaking visit.

This morning I was sitting at the breakfast table crying over my mom and my puppy heard me. He came racing at top speed to jump in my lap and lick my face. He gave me an amazingly sympathetic look. It felt like God was comforting me through my pooch.

It's heartening to know that pure love wins out in the end over anything else. Life really is simple after all.

Love, Sue

Mothers Have Eyes in the Back of Their Heads

Dear Friends,

God bless you, your loved ones and your ministries today!

Have you ever lost track of a child who was in your care?

Last night our son's theater rehearsal finished super early, so when I went to pick him up earlier than the stated ending time, the director told me that our son had left with his friends. I asked if his best friend was with him and she said yes, so I went to his best friend's house. Our son wasn't there, but the brother of his best friend said that our son was at the pizza parlor. When I walked into the pizza parlor, our son wondered how I knew where he was. I replied, "Mother's have eyes in the back of their heads." He told me that he was going to return to the theater for the usual pick up time, so all was well.

Sometimes we as Christians take a detour from our intended path. Fortunately, God always knows where to find us.

Love, Sue
