The Truth


I told Abby today that she only has to live through one more Monday with a broken heart. She looked at me with that intense gaze... so I'm sure she understands. :) As I begin to force myself to think about the details of her surgery, I am constantly reminded of the verse that says "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." – Philippians 4:8. I have a friend who says that sometimes just thinking about what is "true" is enough to handle and I'm finding this true of the surgery. Instead of thinking about all that could go wrong, I'm thinking on what we do know to be true and not speculating on the "what ifs". Ahhhh......

  2. God bless you all. May you keep your minds in the perfect peace of the Lord. He that is in you is greater then he who is in the world.
