The Minister's Cat: Are we there yet?

Are we there yet?

As I was reading Psalm 139 today it struck me that God has a perfect GPS. He always knows where we are but often we do not! Our responses to him are varied e.g. when Abraham was told to go (Hebrews 11:8) "not knowing where he was going" - like the first day of school or change in house or job and he motivated his whole family to go with him. His father who was told to go stopped half way. I want to go all the way. Right now I am having memory shifts. Please pray I will find myself again. John

Dear John, I know what it is to have memory shifts and to hope to find myself again. It's like trying to move in the dark. How blessed we are to have a God who is so trustworthy to lead us through, and lift us up and carries us when we can't find our way. You are safe in His arms. I am praying that in His love you will be be patient with yourself.

John it's no coincidence that what you shared about Abraham was also the topic we learned about in Church yesterday! The Lord knows every detail of our lives and has already prepared the way for us! We are continually praying that you are dependant on the God who loves you so much.He continues to use you right where you are. Peace and comfort be yours,in the precious love of Christ I pray.

Calm in the storm - blessings and praises

1 ATV was on the trail minutes after Johns accident. He was able to get help ASAP while Laverne was able to stay and assist.

2 The cement blocks had been removed from the beginning of the logging road so that the ambulance could back in right away.

3 The nurses at the hospital were the right ones. One worked with John and one graduated with Laverne. They were Connie and Ellen.

4 Good friends Lee & Don, Bob & Pat were at the hospital quickly.

5 Laverne was able to fly with John on the Medivac helicopter as this is unusual.

6 In vancouver Beth Sykes a Cascades church friend was coming on shift on ICU after a week in Mexico.

7 Tom Freeman a friend was in town to Visit John the first day.

8 The many prayers and help. Those who have helped by taking DVBS, feeding cat, gathering belongings, (and bringing them down), and getting the bikes home.

9 Karen from 100 Huntley St called out friend Patricia and said she sensed that a close friend needed prayer.

10 Sister Eleanor was able to get a quick flight and be there before surgery.

11 John was able and ready to get a tracheotomy in good time instead of days or weeks later.
