Waiting

While waiting is definitely hard for me to do. . .  it often allows for precious time spent with the Lord.  I'm reminded of the story of David. . . My wait is so small compared to David's.  He certainly understood what it meant to become fearful and discouraged.  David's willingness to wait sure has been a blessing to me.
"wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord." Psalm 27:14

Elaina's new doctor should be calling within a week to let us know when the new treatment will start.  A team of physicists are hard at work doing what they do best.  and I sit back praising God for offering them the wisdom that blows my mind.  One of the many things I have learned along the way is how little I understand about all our body systems and what each specialist offers. . . how all these specialists come together with the knowledge they have and collaborate coming up with a specialized plan.  I appreciate all their work and the care they pour out on our sweet princess.
Elaina has such a courageous spirit.  She had an appointment before Christmas to have the typical "pre-radiation" stuff done. . . I'll spare you all the boring details. . . She was never scared and did amazing! but it was stuff that made ME uneasy and to be honest there was a moment I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry. . .  and then I heard. . . "For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go" Joshua 1:9  

God so sweetly reminded me through his Word yesterday that He will be with us through it all.
"When you go through deep waters,
I will be with you.
When you go through rivers of difficulty,
you will not drown.
When you walk through the fire of oppression,
you will not be burned up;
the flames will not consume you.
For I am the Lord, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior."
Isaiah 43:2-3
Elaina was chosen by God and He loves her far better than I could ever try.  I can't forget the road of Faith that He led me down not too long ago. . . I am continuing on in prayer! Praying for His will and that I choose to trust the plan He has for us knowing that His plan is perfect.  

Thank you so much for partnering with us in prayer!
