Well I am in Florida. Tomorrow is Logan's shower. I am without transportation, but confident that the right transportation will be provided at the perfect moments. Matthew was wonderful to let me use his car yesterday. For that, I am super grateful. : ) What a nice big brother.
Spending time with my Banjo has been wonderful. He's so cute. 'Kota and Sheena are pretty incredible. So much love in three, such little bodies of cuteness and warmth.
I am praising God for many things: Cody Reese's successful surgeries. God's strength in Cody's family. Random opportunities to serve family, friends and strangers alike. His goodness. His grace. His love. His faithfulness. His mercy. His attention to detail. Peace in a situation that has been a struggle for my trust. God has been so amazing to work out my trust in Him with it. And at this moment, I am completely content with it, more so than I have been to date. God is a good, good God.
I judged my mom's karaoke contest last night. What a delight! I was the "nice judge." I was honest with people about the ways in which they can improve, but I enjoyed being able to see the beauty of each person in their unique, God-created ways. I thanked Jesus for transforming my vision so that I could see His obsession with them, and it was such a treat to be able to share a little with them. "In every moment, Lord, have your way in me."
Brian came out too. That was wonderful. He's such a blessing of a friend. Always positive, willing to engage in real conversation, and so much fun!
I am going to go for a walk now. That should be quite enjoyable. I enjoy my walks with God.
