I woke up today feeling good and thought, okay maybe this will be a good day. But by mid-morning I found out my mother in-law was in the hospital again and if that wasn't enough I was told Frank's car needs new head gaskets. I stepped out for lunch just so that I could go somewhere and scream and ask God what is going on and when, when will you put a stop to this. I was pretty angry. I started to remind God of my prayers - my prayers for Frank's healing, my prayers for my mother in-laws healing, my prayers so that the car situation would not be a big deal... I reminded him that his word says if we call on Him he hears us so what's going on. Then later in the day it finally hit me, God is the God of the valley as well as the mountaintop and while in the valley I just have to keep looking up - where does my help come from. Sure I hurt and I'll be hurting for quite some time, but I can't let the enemy think that he can take me down for he can only take me where I allow him to do so. My plan is to take my focus off of my situation and onto what God wants me to focus on - whether it's helping someone else, whether it's just focusing more on Him and His word - whatever God wants, that's where my focus will go. Treasure in the deep sea are found in the deepest darkest of waters so this is a season where it seems pretty dark but God will pull forth the treasures. Thank you Jesus.

I hope your mother-ii-law is doing better. She made an impression on me. It is difficult for one to lose your only child. I often think of you and hope that you know love and pray for you and Nicki. Bianca took Frank's death really hard. She remembered the good memories that she shed with your family.
