That is a question so many people ask,  is God really in control?  Sometimes it does seem hard to see Him there and in control when it seems like everything else is falling in around you. 

     This has been a hard week for my extended family.  My sister had an emergency appendectomy and my dad is on the verge of getting Pneumonia.  He cracked 3 ribs 2 weeks ago and is having a hard time coughing and that prevents getting that junk out and so on and so forth.  Through all of those things it may seem hard to see God in control and yet we can know that He is in control and there with us to help us through those hard times. 

     Pastor had a really good sermon today about just being content where we are even if it is not where we think we should be or want to be.  When we find peace and contentment with where God puts us then we can be at least joyful in those times of trouble and trials. 

     The Lord is good and He always has our best in sight even when we can't see past the pain that is hurting us so deeply.  Please pray for my family as they try to heal from a very hard couple weeks.  God's blessings on each of you this week as you go about your daily task. 

     Let's continue to be praying for those families in California that are under such persecution in the area of homeschooling.   Have a great Lord's Day!!!
