Well well well, it has been a weekend to remember!!! I'll start from the beginning...
1) Jody getting into car accident on Thursday last week. The result? A complete break of her lower right leg, and 5 days of being a "mom" to the girls. Wow.
Then.....
2) On Sunday night, on our way home to Jody's house for the night.....the Blazer's transmission BLEW UP.
Then....
3) Found out transmissions are expensive! There goes $1000!
Then....
4) On Monday, James was rear-ended in his truck. He called me, and the first thing he says is: "I got into a car accident, I need you here right away..." I think I turned as white as a sheet! I was so afraid he (or someone else) was hurt! Thankfully, when I got there, he was OK. Just a sore neck for a few days, thank GOD!
Anyways, as stressful as this weekend was...I found myself at peace with things. I know that God has his hands on my life, and everything is in his control. It's nice just to hand everything over to him. There was NOTHING I could do to change the things that happened, but God can do anything. This song popped in my head, and I can't seem to get it out!
He's able, He's able, I know He's able
I know my Lord is able to carry me through.
He's able, He's able, I know He's able
I know my Lord is able to carry me through.
He healed the broken-hearted
and set the captive free
He made the lame to walk again--and caused the blind to see!
He's able, He's able, I know He's able
I know my Lord is able to carry me through.
I even remember the hand motions that accompany the words....we used to sing it at Camp Joy. What a true song, and the reassurance that I needed!

I am so sorry!! I will pray for you both.
It is wonderful how God just makes us realize that He is in control and we can have peace with that.
I am glad that you were able to see the peace of God with you. That is a great song to remember. I'm glad James is okay...Let us know how Jody is. Are you enjoying being a "mom"? :)
