THE WHIRLWIND WEEK

First Tirzah, recovering from the flu had to give blood and and a 24 hour urine test as a simple flu to us, causes major complications in her because of her HSP (henoch schonlein purpura). The good news is the doctors decided her current issues were because of her HSP and she really has HSP so they won't keep trying to prove it is something else. They also said that there have been some trials with Chemotherapt and HSP but they haven't been successful, so we won't be doing that ( We didn't even know that was a consideration , so hooray?)

Next after taking Chai to Winter weekend camp on their way home, they (Heather and 4 of Six children, one was with dad) were rear ended. One car turned one car stopped, Heather stopped leaving plenty of room ahead of her, next guy stopped with very little room and the last guy didn't stop so he hit the car in front of him that hit Heather. Just a bumper, Bella was drinking so the cup cute her lip. But all are well and a bit sore from bracing.

Next day Paul arrives. He is a Kuwaiti Pastor and Best friend to our Sam who is being ordained this coming Friday as the SR. Pastor of the Messianic Congregation. This will be Purim weekend and The Iranian worship team from LA and the Jewish Pastor that married Sam and Heather, and Paul will be having a weekend celebration showing that in Messiah Jesus all of Abraham's children get along, and Ordaining Sam. Esther would be proud. I think Tuesday is Hamantashen Baking Day.

Chai came home tonight so we all had dinner at Great Grandpa's house with Paul too. I don't know which day will be the day I get to go to the festival, I know Friday for the Ordination I will try, but probably hold a grandbaby in the hallway (: Saturday we Take Chiam to the Airport, so I will miss the luncheon. And Sunday night, I think I am opting to watch the grandkids here.

Now somewhere in the midst of this I have to do my Bible Study. I remember being really good at Multi-tasking.....I guess this week I will discover if I still am. I only need to remember "I looked for God in the Whirlwind and He was not in the Whirlwind."..May I have a still small breeze.......and enjoy God's presence.

There is such peace in knowing that God has His Hand on all of this. May it /we Glorify Him.

Because of Jesus, Bobbie

Sounds like a very full, but rich time. May you blessed as you serve those you love.

So glad your loved ones weren't hurt in the accident. it's always frightening nonetheless.

About Me

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. This blog is a homeschooling devotional from a bubbe's point of view or watching the next generation excel where I only succeeded.
