Becky-Prayers lifted up!

"For I know the plans I have for you , declares the Lord , plans for welfare and not evil , to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. Jeremiah 29 11-12

Bargoo-Love that verse! Clinging to it right now! How are you doing? I pray for you daily. God bless you!

Hello, everyone! It's been an unbelievable few days, but must share how God is working. My mom (most of you are familiar with her mental health issues) took a bad fall off a step-ladder on Friday. Broke both the tibia and fibula on her right leg just below the knee. It's the same leg as her hip replacement. Unbelievably, she did not damage the prosthesis! Or the other hip! The docs at our local hospital, where she was taken by ambulance after she called her neighbor who called me, were going to jump into surgery right away on Friday night, but we requested that she be transferred to Mayo where her hip replacement was done. After the doctor became aware of her allergy problems and the mental health issue, he approved the transfer. The specialist here has been wonderful! He said right away on Friday night that surgery may not be needed and they would just keep her in the hospital and make a decision on Monday (today). As of now, they are planning to either put on a cast or leave her in the immobilizer brace instead of doing surgery! They don't think it would be necessary and she doesn't need more trauma. She'll be going down soon for more x-rays and the cast or bracing. They found a blood clot too, so they're working on resolving that before she's released. She'll probably have to do to a nursing home, so they're working with us to find one that can handle all her needs.

Prayers are appreciated! God has surely been working in this, helping get her transferred and cared for by doctors who understand all her issues! Praise Him!

This is the day the Lord has made, let is rejoice and be glad ln it,

Without Good Friday, there can be no Easter

I read that on Facebook this morning and I hope everyone feels the conflicting emotions that come from that knowledge. Sadness that Jesus had to die to bring us back to God the Father, but joy in knowing that He loved us so incredibly much that He was willing to do what needed to be done, whatever the pain and cost to Himself. He finished the plan God set in motion at creation, fulfilling all the law, and allowing us to have joyous eternity with Father God, if we only will accept and believe that He is THE WAY, THE TRUTH, THE LIGHT.

I pray that you all, my dear friends, have a very blessed Easter weekend! Praise God from Whom ALL blessings flow!

'For God so loved the world (us) that he gave his only begotten son...'
