"Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him!"
The words of Job have been ringing in my heart today. There is no words to describe how difficult it is as a mother, to know that your child might be sick and there's nothing you can do about it. Today Cassidy is being tested for Cystic Fibrois, and naturally Josh and I are both feeling very anxious and afraid. NEVERTHELESS. If God chooses to give us and Cassi, this cross to bear, then we will never stop trusting Him. We are praying that she will not test positive, and so if I do hear that she has C.F. then I know I will naturally feel "slain." I can think of nothing worse than being her mom and yet being unable to protect her from the effects of this disease. And yet, I will never stop trusting, never stop believing that "He doeth all things well" whether it makes sense to us or not!! "Some trust in horses, some in chariots, but we WILL trust in the Name of the Lord our God!"Christy

Christy, you gotta love that Psalm 20:4-6 verse (I think that's where it's at). I memorized that during one of the storms I had to endure a few years ago. Our Lord is good-- and His mercies are new every day!
