New Post, Can you believe it?

Sorry it has taken so long to post anything. Christmas was busy, of course, and we have been busy on the house.

Pray for Jerry. If you haven't heard, he was hit (his body) in a parking lot on January 12th. We know he doesn't have any broken bones, but his shoulder, elbow and knee are hurting him pretty bad. We aren't sure if there was any additional damage to his back at this point either.
It's frustrating, cause we aren't sure how long he will be recovering, so we are on hold at this point with the house.

What happened? Well, according to witnesses, he was standing behind his truck, checking on a few pieces of lumber he had in the back when a lady was backing up too fast and hit him and the truck. They said he went airborne and landed four feet away from where he was standing. He was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance. Amazingly enough, the woman not once, even to this day has not asked if he was ok. Sad.

So, as I said, please pray for Jerry...for healing and strength and patience while he is healing. :)

We appreciate your prayers!

Yes, we are praying for Jerry for a full recovery. I know it is hard to understand why people can be so rude. But just want to encourage you that this lady is responsible for her own reactions. I am very thankful that if you had been the one to hit someone, your reaction would have been VERY different . . . and that is only by the work of the Lord in your heart. Without Christ, we all would respond the same way as this lady has. So be encouraged that God is with you and will get you through this. This didn't take Him by surprise and in His plan, this delay on the house is for a reason. Trust in the Lord, HE IS FAITHFUL! Love you all so much and miss you!
