It is monday morning and my mind is racing with all of the things I have to get done before we leave for our vacation on Friday afternoon, wondering if the motor for our truck is going to cost more than quoted, with concern for my soon to be stepsister in the hospital, and with the death of my uncle early Saturday morning. I am trying to seperate theses thoughts from one another and only dwell on the positives in my life but the circumstances that surround each of my situations is difficult.
Vacation planning is exhausting, especially when you are taking 4 children with you. But i am excited, I know that once we get to Colorado and get settled in the cabin we will be able to relax and enjoy ourselves. We have never taken a vacation as an entire family, so this will be interesting to say the least.
The motor situation is a small irritation and I am not going to let it stress me out, I am just going to have faith that God is going to work out the finances and by faith it will cost less than we planned for!
My soon to be stepsister was hospitalized Saturday night due to some infection that set in after her motorcycle wreck Tuesday night. I am concerned for her but I wonder if I am not a worried as I should be or maybe I just feel bad that I havent gone to see her. But it is hard for me to go see her when I am so dissapointed with some of the decisions she is making in her life. Does this make me a bad person? If so Lord, change my heart! Put conviction where it needs to be.
The most pressing matter on my mind is my uncles death. I was not close to my uncle and I rarely saw him but the circumstances surrounding his death are shadey. If anyone pays attention to abc13.com you have seen the story of the man dying after being tasered. That story is about my family. We are still unclear of why he died. We have to wait until the ivestigation, autopsy and toxicology reports come back before they will let us bury him. But God will have his way in this situation as well. His will, will be done. Now to convince my family of this.....
