Smiles

Everytime I open this blog, I can't help but smile. Kennedy Clare just brings out the smiles. I wonder if the same thing happens when my heavenly Father opens the heavens and looks down on me. I want to bring Him smiles and not an "Oh, dear what have I done."

I have been leading Bible studies for over a year now. They have brought me so much closer to God. I enter some of these studies thinking this will be good but I don't think there is much new here. I am hardly into the study and God lets me know just how much I do need what is being presented. It's not that He is in my face, but I certainly can't wiggle out the truth of where I am and where He wants me to be. He loves me so much.

I wanted to leave a prayer request. My sister-in-law, Karen, has just found out she has breast cancer. This is a difficult place to be when you are relatively healthy, but she has had diabetes since she was a child. She carries an insulin pump which has been working well for her, but her sugar has been uncontrollabe for awhile. Probably the cancer is the cause. She is being referred to specialists in Ft Wayne and possibly on to Indianapolis. They aren't sure just how to work with this. I am thankful that God brought one of my sisters through breast cancer and now two knee replacements with complications in one replacement and another of my sisters through a bone marrow transplant. It was a long year of comeback, but she is doing great. I am looking for God to do the same for Karen. I know she will need a lot of prayer. So when she comes to mind, would please pray for her. Thank you.
