It's Sunday

I had thought I would do a run-down of 2008 but so far haven't gotten that done. Anyhow, here we are in 2009, and a new president about to take over. Many are skeptical, myself included, about his leadership, but we have to rely on the fact that God is still in control and running this world. God gave the American people a choice, and the American people voted him in; I still can hardly believe this. I can say this freely since I am a Canadian, ha ha! But I feel American since I have lived here almost 30 years.

Missie went to the youth scavenger hunt last night, which I felt was a mistake, but she wanted to go so bad, but it caused her to have a relapse. She woke up sick again and had diarrhea and could hardly walk all day. So she has been in bed most of the day again, and has eaten very little. I am worried about her. I am glad we are going to the dr. on Thurs. If they can find out exactly what type of arthritis we are dealing with and can help her get it under control, it will help so much. She is very discouraged from being sick, and cried because she cannot go back to school in the morning.

Junior has to work for Mike in Indianapolis tomorrow. I dread it, it is about an hr. away and he is always late getting home. Preston sits and worries because he is late; it is stressful. But we have to do what we have to do. He cannot work for our pastor anymore for a while because 10 of his rental places are not rented at this time, and he cannot afford to hire him anymore right now. A week from tomorrow he plans to go out and try to find a job. He will go to the temp. agencies and see if anything is available.

Thank the Lord our church lives streams our services. It is such a blessing. I was unable to get to sleep last night and was so tired this a.m. I went back to bed but got back up in time to hear part of the service. Tonight Junior and Preston went and I watched the sermon live on my computer. Bro. Mowery preached a tremendous sermon. It encouraged me to keep on doing what we are doing! My main goal in life is to get my children to Heaven. We gave up comforts to live in IN and have Missie in a holiness school. But it is because she needed a holiness school and we had to give her this chance. It has not been easy since we moved here in some ways; but our church is wonderful, and the school as well, and God is taking care of us; so we can't complain. We just have to keep trusting Him!

You all have a good week. We will try to do the same. I will update after we take both children to the dr. on Thurs.
