Praise to God for Not Taking My Dad

I've been praying about my Dad's health lately...that God would not take my father and that death would be held at bay until my Dad is saved.  Well my my Mom left for the day, but suddenly her plans got cancelled (God cancelled them) and she came home to find my Dad unresponsive.  My father was rushed by ambulance to the hospital.  He is OK but if my Mom's plans weren't suddenly cancelled my father might have died.

I thank you God for mercy to my Dad and me by not allowing him to die.  Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I pray Jesus that God would continue to draw my Dad to you so that before his time on earth is up, and the sooner the better, my father would be saved.

God Answers Prayers

One of the things I wanted to do with this blog is to keep a log of prayers that God has answered.  One dramatic one was answered just recently.  My wife works night shifts, I work days.  I can't really do much on the days that she is sleeping while I'm at home because I wake her up (yard work, cleaning, dishes, etc...).  Plus she works one weekend night and is usually exhausted the morning of the other, so our weekends together are almost non existent.  I really missed our time together on the weekends as in the past we would go for little day trips and would have a great time together.  So I told my wife she should push for day shifts.  She just started her new job and is the low person on the seniority latter so she just laughed.  So I prayed that she would be able to work days.

Well God answered my prayer.  The company my wife works for decided that they want to make her a lead person at night, and she isn't quite strong enough to do that yet, so they are going to move her to days for a few months to get her where she needs to be in order to be a strong lead person on the night shift.  Coincidence? I don't think so.

It won't be for a long time, but it will be enough for us to spend time together before Winter, get our affairs back to what I call a "zero point" or in a maintainable state.  I'm very thankful to God for this.  Jesus is cool, thank you.
