Where I Have Been!!
Tuesday, October 03, 2006
Alot has happened since my last post. The boy I posted about, well, God has answered my prayers, he is finally settled in, he is doing well. He called his uncle and spent the day with him and his uncle made him pay his own way, in other words, he had to buy his own food when they went out to eat and he had to pay for everything they did. I am so surprised because most of the kids we deal with...their parents and family enable them and don't make them stand on their own two feet.
So I am praising the Lord, he is working, he is happy, he is going forward. We have his GED scheduled for Thursday. He is involved in College Life at Church and Huddle Ups which is Bible study for High School. He plans to go to college for Computer Technology, we are going to try one class the first semester in January and he is saving money for a car. Thank you Lord Jesus, He does hear and answer prayer.
Also, last Friday I got a call from my husband. He was working in the middle school where he was contracting and he asked the school nurse to take his blood pressure. She did and found his heart was skipping beats so she told him to go to the doctor and have it ckd. He did and they sent him to the emergency room. So three days later he gets out of the hospital with two prescriptions, the diagnosis..undetermined. They said he might have a small infection in his heart, but they aren't sure, so I am scheduling him for a second opinion. He has felt great, had no symptoms but now he thinks he is having a reaction to the medicine, but is unsure if it is because he knows something is wrong. Anyway, his heart is skipping beats still, but it is better, it makes you stop and think of how vulnerable we are and how we aren't promised tomorrow. It made me want to just stay home with him, but I had to put it in God's hands.
So if you think of it, will you say a prayer for him today, I really appreciate it.

Yes, you have been busy. Glad everything is working out with the young man you are working with. It is wonderful to see God's hand in things.
I hope they find out what is wrong with your husband. It's worse not knowing what is wrong.
This weeks lesson I've been hearing from people is that we need to LEAVE it in God's hands once we put it there. We so often want to keep taking our trials back, as least I know I do. I'm so thrilled to hear about your young man and the direction he is taking! Praise God!
I will be praying for your husband and believing that God will heal any future problems and make that heart of his beat in perfect rhythm. He created it, He can do it!
Glad to hear about the young man, God bless him,
and will say a prayer for your husband,and you!
God bless
huggs!
Definitley will pray for your hubby....yes, its frightening when we do realize that life after all life is very fragile...I have had some small heart issues myself and I know they can freak you out....
So happy to hear about your boy. God is good! Thanks for stopping by my blog...I hadn't realized it had been so long since i stopped by yours til I saw your smiling face in my comments..:)
I'm so glad to hear the young man is coming around Dana.
Pray request.....done.
Take care girl.
This thing with your husband has to be scary. I hope things work out well for you both.
I'm glad that hubby's reasonably OK. I prayed for him, and will keep you guys in my prayers. I love the new blog design (which may not be so new. Sadly, I've been so very busy lately that I haven't been able to get over here!)
I sure understand the insecurity when your heart is doing something unusual. I have the same problem and have learned that a thyroid problem can cause it. Also there are some things I can't eat, like MSG, and caffein. ALso steroids of any kind will cause heart palpitations, even when applied to my skin. You may mention this to him.
You are wise to get a second opinion. I pray he will be cured.
I am hoping your husband is doing better & a second opinion is underway. Hugs & prayers for you all.
