HOME AND IN HIS HANDS







HOME....A WONDERFUL PLACE TO BE
IN HIS HANDS, EVEN BETTER

God's Hands
Today is in God's hands and so are you.

His hands are strong and will uphold you;
His hands are great and will enfold you;
His hands are gentle and will embrace you;
His hands are protective and will cover you;
His hands are reassuring and will quiet you;
His hands are powerful and will defend you;
His hands are parental and will train you;
His hands are masterful and will conform you;
His hands are compassionate and will care for you;
His hands are healing and will renew you;
His hands are calming and will comfort you;
His hands are giving and will bless you.

The hands that hold you will never let you down.

THE PAST FEW DAYS HAVE BEEN SO FULL....FULL OF EXCITEMENT
FULL OF ANXIETY AS WE WERE TOLD LITTLE REID HAD A WHITE DOT IN THE CENTER OF HIS PUPIL THAT THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT AND HAD CALLED IN THE SPECIALIST.

ADVICE....DO NOT GO TO THE INTERNET FOR WISDOM....GO TO THE LORD FOR COMFORT AND CONFIDENCE IN HIS PROMISES TO CARRY YOUR ANXIETY.

SO....HERE ARE A FEW OF GOD'S BLESSINGS AND MOMENTS OF LAUGHTER

THE SPECIALIST WALKED IN AMYBETH'S ROOM AND IT WAS BRETT'S EYE DOCTOR THAT DID HIS EYE SURGERIES...HOW SWEET WAS THAT?! WE LOVE, LOVE DR. LIPSKY AND HE ALREADY KNOWS OUR FAMILY. HIS GREAT NEWS IS THAT PIN PRICK WHITE DOT IS A TYPE OF CATARACTS AND WILL NEVER GO AWAY BUT IT WILL NOT AFFECT HIS VISION!

JUST A LITTLE REMINDER THAT REID THE APPLE OF GOD'S EYE!

KATE ASKED AMYBETH YESTERDAY IF THERE WAS ANOTHER BABY IN HER TUMMY BECAUSE HER TUMMY WAS SO BIG!!!! NO, SWEETIE, IT IS BECAUSE YOUR BROTHER WEIGHED OVER 10 POUNDS!

BRETT SITS BESIDE REID PATTING HIM WITH THE MOST GENTLE TOUCHES AND SAYS, "DON'T BE AFRAID REID, I AM HERE BESIDE YOU AND I WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU." MELT MY HEART!!!!


SO, PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSING FLOW!

MORE TO COME....WE ARE BACK IN THE REAL WORLD...NO SLEEP...AND WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?

BETTER PICTURES SOON.

  1. What a wonderful post, Katie. So thankful that Reid is well and how great that a familiar doctor was there to examine him and give you the good news. Reid is a doll. Little Brett must be one of the best big brothers ever! I have read how he takes care of Kate and now he is here taking care of his little brother. What sweet words from such a little guy. Thank you for your posts and the photos. I love being involved in their lives even from a distance. I know how glad you must be to live near them just as I am so blessed to have moved to Marietta. I think that you know that Lauren now lives on the next street! God is amazing. So thrilled and excited for all of you. Love your poem and your assurance that we are in God's hands. Love you!!!
