I was racing against the clock today trying to fit in some errands, visit my cousin Lee in a nursing home in a nearby town and get home in time to make Hu's lunch. Although I shouldn't be surprised, it is always eye-opening when the Lord does something special for me.
When I got to the nursing home I had something I needed to leave in the director's office. Realizing it would take time from my visit with Lee, I considered leaving it in the car. Instead, I decided to take it in with me. Lee wasn't in his room. As he is a social person, it is sometimes quite the time-consuming search to find him. I decided to go to the director's office and leave my package, and who was sitting in the waiting area but Lee. I felt blessed because the Lord knew my time constraints, and that is the last place I would have thought to look for him. My mother would call that a "God sighting".
Hu continues to make minimal progress. His wounds are almost healed, but he lacks stamina and breathing comes hard. Although everyone is different we recently ran into a friend whose wife had a surgery similar to one of Hu's and he said that her breathing became easier as time progressed. That was an encouragement to us. Another God sighting!
The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand. Psalm 37:23-24
