I just think what is the Lord up to. I have no idea, but I trust in Him who not only knows what He's up to, but knows what's ahead. It's kind of distressing just being in this situation, but I rest in the Lord.
Yesterday as A was napping, JM was reading 2 Corinthians 1:8-12 and I was just sending a friend away with a set of keys for plans on Sunday... I got a call from the friend that just left saying that it looked like the water was rising as she was leaving and wanted me to be careful. As soon as she said that, I told JM and we looked out the window and water was already seeping through from under the front door. My helper worked at blocking it and I called people to get input and help. Within a couple minutes the water level was up to the tire of my car... so we packed a few bags and left the house. We walked through some knee high, maybe higher up the path to safety. I'll spare you from all the details, but we are currently at a friends' house. A is happily playing with the girls at this house (She thinks we are having sleep overs at friends house. I told her we may be having sleep overs for a while, which she really enjoys.), JM and I are watching a movie and resting. I am so glad that JM is here and I was not alone. She made me feel safer and she saved our cat! ha ha...
The situation is like this... the problem that is causing the flood will not be fixed for 3-6 weeks... and even if the problem is fixed, chances of it being held up in this rain, is unlikely..
Please pray for us... I definitely feel the Lord led us to this house and I had a great season in that house, but I think we may have to say that the season of that particular house is going to be done. I need prayer in wisdom for next steps... but most of all please pray for any work of Satan. Satan may not be liking the fact that I'm here, for whatever reason... So please pray against his working!!! Pray that angels will be looking after us in our next step.
We are doing great and being very well taken care of. Please do not worry for us for people of the Jesus do not worry... We are to cast it upon Jesus. Please pray for blessing on the friends that have run to my side from 10 minutes away, 1 hour away... 3 hours away...
I want to have fun with JM, please pray that in the midst of this, we could still enjoy each others' company. She's been encouraging. Praise God she is here!!!
In the beginning of the chapter that JM was reading is the verses about how we experience suffering to join in the sufferings of others... I got just a little taste of the floodings people experience all over the world.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANY MAIL TO THAT HOUSE!!!
