Snow, for the third Sunday in a row...

songofjoy02No AWANA program, and no church tonight...snow started coming down pretty thick just as it was about time to leave for church this morning. It was several inches deep by the time the morning services had ended. I was glad for the weather, though, because I got a long sleep this afternoon.=) Very pleasant. The attendance this morning was smaller than Sunday nights, even, but the entire children's choir was there, so we got to do "My Delight," remarkably related to the pastor's sermon on Psalm 34.
A friend of ours gave birth by C-section this morning. She was a widow with four kids...until she married a couple of years ago, and now she's got a baby. It's so sweet, but we are praying that the health complications don't prove to be too serious.
An aunt had to have emergency (of course, I guess) gallbladder surgery this morning. I don't know how she is doing.
My grandmother was in a car accident Friday morning, the brakes not helping her much because the roads were slick...traffic and the person she hit were perfect circumstances if they can be so for an accident--there was no traffic except for the pleasant person she hit.;-) And it appears that her car was the only thing to suffer. I'm very grateful that it wasn't anything worse!
If the snow doesn't prevent me, I'll be taking the GED on Tuesday and Thursday this coming week. I'm looking forward to being done with that. I need to call the community college about their COMPASS test and a time to talk to an advisor about transfer plans. Everything is so uncertain...sometimes I wish I could have everything figured out so I wouldn't have to wonder what will be. God knows, though, and I don't mean that flippantly.
Our family will be praying about getting a bigger house this evening. There is a house that we would love to have--it has a shop that would be good for my mechanic brother, and is a nice size that would allow a little more breathing space for all of us. However, it is expensive...and that is an issue. I'm not sure what the Lord wants. Of course, if we stayed in this house, we could be out of debt in less than ten years, but I think there might be more at stake. If we stay here, my 18 y.o. (mechanic) brother will move out...which doesn't particularly bother me, but I think it might be better if he could be at home just a little longer...and the friend he would be sharing a house with might need some more time at home, too--I don't know. I know that God is sovereign here, so we're praying that He would give us wisdom and clear direction. In the meantime, my 13 y.o. brother and I have started painting the house, and hope to complete some other projects in preparing to sell it...if that's what we need to do. We shall see; the projects need to be done anyway. Right now, we've got books all over the floor...I had them in boxes, but I guess someone is organizing them...and there's not much I can do about it. Maybe I should go clean my room.;-)
Well, good evening...and y'all have a great week!=)
