And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
2 Corinthians 12:9

Wedding Bliss

I guess I've been on a blogging hiatus.There has been so much going on and I haven't known what to write.

This last week has been crazy to say the least. It was a hard week as I had to turn in my work computer which made everything seem so real. This next week I will have to turn in my car and everything else for work. It just makes the yuckiness of all this sink in much more. Being able to go check work e-mails, look at sales numbers, etc., made me feel like I was still in the loop to some degree. Now that is all going to disappear until I'm seizure free for six months or until the Lord says otherwise.

B was in a wedding for one of the guys he works with this last weekend. The events started Thursday night and we didn't leave the reception Saturday until after midnight. I get frustrated when I'm having seizures that keep me from being able to truly participate, yet it was a nice weekend and nice to be out of the house . We had some special moments with the groom's family. The groom worked hard to make each person feel special and know why they were a part of his wedding and told others why each person was special to him. As we met many of them, they knew who B was within a few minutes of being introduced. We were incredibly humbled by many of them, as well. As we spoke with them, my seizures became a part of the conversation. We were shocked when quite a few said, "You are the one that has been having seizures? I have been praying for you for months." Wow!! How special to know that people from all over the U.S., even many we didn't know until this weekend, have been petitioning the Lord on our behalf! Also, it is special to know that, even while at work, he is surrounded by men that care enough to share our struggles with their families all over the U.S. so that they can lift us up in prayer, as well. We were so humbled.



Isn't he good looking?!!





We woke up the next morning, without much sleep, and drove to Houston for my doc appt. I'll update with those details soon.
