M.I.A?....but not lost


I know I have not been here much...sorry!

Life has been so crazy.

I have been spending lots of time with Elayne as she goes through surgery and is getting ready to start chemo.

She is doing pretty good. They removed a tumor from under her arm.....and the good news...they removed 17 lymph nods and only two were cancerous.

Tomorrow we should find out if the biopsy on her lung shows cancer in the lymph nods.

We pray that that will be a negative. She would appreciate you continued prayers.


We have been busy up on the mountain....you can go here to see what we have been up to.

We are waiting on the board meeting on the 17th of this month to see what God has in store for us. I am kind of excited that they have asked my Mom and Dad to become members of the board. So it will be nice to get to visit with them for awhile next week. And they will get to enjoy the changing of the leaves.....not something that takes place in Louisiana.


I am holding on......life has gotten pretty rough lately.

This whole walking by faith is pretty rough.

I am soooooo ready for Jesus to calm the storm.......but I don't want to pass through this learning session and not learn what He had planned.

So.....I'm walking.

And though He slay me.......still I will worship at His feet for an eternity.

He is faithful!


I promise to get around soon to check in on you.

Take care.....love you.

I've had you in my thoughts, a lot over the last few days. I'm glad that you've been there for your friend and also about your parents being involved on the board. Hugs.

I'm glad you updated on Elayne I was wondering how things went. I will continue to keep her in my prayers.
That's awsome about your mom and dad and the visit they are going to get to make over!

Do you ever feel sometimes like "Okay Lord? I did what you asked me to do and now what?" I mean after all its been XXX amount of time and I would have expected an answer by now. What if what you're doing is what you're supposed to be doing and there isn't something "next"? What if you're supposed to lay down roots now and are prolonging it because of the uncertainty? I know that when I feel like that, I always ask for His Wisdom because there are too many don't knows and His clear direction is the only thing you long to have. Well, that's how I get anyhow. :)
