Sunshine

Macee has become the singing machine....we call her the "singing monkey"....lately we have been singing "You are my sunshine"only about a million times a day. Especially when we are in the car....It was the song my mom and I sang together all the time...it is such a special thing to be able to now sing it with Macee not just to her as I did when she was so tiny....She is fun...I enjoy being her mom. I am blessed.
Still speaking of the sunshine...I forget how "healing" the sun is to me. I need it....I find times where I am thinking of being somewhere warm and sunny....I love the sun, it makes any day a better day...Today is a sun shiny day. It often reminds me of what a great friend of mine taught me...He called the sunshine "The champion"...sorta of like the champ that stands above all....the one in control...in relation of course to the Lord and how he is the father of all. It not only warms me physically to see the sun, but also reminds me of how in control the Lord is. He told the sun where to stand....yeah..and all that good stuff....So enough about the sun....I just was enjoying it.....
Still no Lily Sterba...Steph and Kevin are hanging in there...I feel like I wish I could do more for them...I get a little nervous when I think of some of the birth stories that I went through as well as some of my closest friends....Just pray for them....Hopefully tonight Lily will be here....
I have a couple of things that I would love for all of you to pray about...one is for my sister and her hubby...everything is okay...they just need some guidance and direction...It has been really stressful for them. They are in a time of transition...My sis is so dear to me....please just pray for them...
Also...my sweetheart Rachel...well...I don't want to be lacking in faith...I have been asked to come down again to see her....and say goodbye....how do I say goodbye but have faith? Besides that I won't say goodbye...I will say "see you there"....I hate this crap...I don;t like death...I know we all die, I can't change that...but death is so final..She just turned 17 last month....she is a beautiful person....she is like the sunshine...a beautiful smile and an awesome Christ like personality. She is in a lot of pain...pray so hard for her. This is so just not fun...Once again, I must be reminded that the Lord is in control...that he is the healer of our minds, body and spirit...Thank you Lord for being unchanging...I need that part of you right now...I am so blessed that your love and comfort and plans for us are in your hands. You are the one true God...I am so glad your love for me does not weaver.......thank you Jesus for loving even Sara....wow.
He reminds me that he is the controller of life and death...To Rachel and Lily...your are his children...I just feel blessed to have the time he will allow me to have with each of you. You are his children..just as we all are.....cool.
