Can You Not Feel My Presence?

Things in life have been crazy. I can’t even believe that I haven’t posted for a week.

My father in Law is back in the hospital. He broke the upper thigh bone on the leg that had the mid-calf amputation last summer. Craig still can’t find a job. Shasta County’s unemployment rate is up to 16%. If it was just Craig and I, We would have packed up our animals and special things and gone somewhere that has jobs. Maybe even Oklahoma. ;)

Craig’s older brother called the other day. He was talking to Craig about working and how we should go somewhere else to live. Craig at this point asked him who would come and take care of Dad. Boy did the tune change from Randy then….”Oh, yeah! You guys are tied to Redding. I have no idea what Dad would do…since he can’t live alone. I guess you can’t leave.” He is such a caring man. LOL (I am being sarcastic).

Pete Wilson, Without Wax, started a Bible reading of Matthew. You read one chapter a day and by the time Easter is here you will have finished. As many of you know Craig doesn’t attend church with me but our Lord is working in him. In ways that he doesn’t see but I do. All of you that have been praying for him, I thank you. Craig has started asking me if I have done my daily reading. Just that one little chapter a day in Matthew. He asked me if I would mind waiting for him, and then read it outloud to him.

I really want to Thank You Lord for making him interested, for hearing our prayers. Lord, I ask that you continue to remove the scales from his eyes, that you continue to peak his interest.

I read this the other day.
“I am beside you.
Can you not feel my presence?”

After I read this to Craig…He said that he can feel God’s presence.
Craig can FEEL God’s Presence, I am one happy wife right now.

    Oh, Theresa, I’m so sorry for the trials you are going through, but what an awesome thing for your hubby to ask you to read aloud a chapter a day from Matthew! And then for him to sense God’s presence! Exciting!

    I will continue to pray for you and your family, my sister in Christ.
