Billie, I loved the music and my 18 year old was roaring in laughter!!
I am so glad to report that Shallie seems to be walking better and eating well. So far so good!! Taking a day at a time with her. She is on a lot of meds that must be doing something.
In 2008, the Day of Discovery film crew traveled to China on a special assignmentto retrace the life of missionary Eric Liddell, the 1924 Olympic gold medalist whose story was told in the movie Chariots of Fire. The crew took with them Erics three daughters, Patricia, Heather, and Maureenallowing them to revisit some of the places where the two older sisters had lived in China. Also along on the trip was their elderly Aunt Louise.
On one occasion, after the entourage had arrived in Beijing, they had to walk quite a distance with their luggage. As they did, Aunt Louise grew short of breath. Julie Richardson, a Day of Discovery crew member, sat down beside her, put her hand on her knee, and prayed simply, Dear Jesus, help Aunt Louise to breathe. Immediately, she began to catch her breath.
Later, Heather retold the story and shared that Julies prayer had rekindled her faith. Julies simple act of faith reminded Heather of the continual connection we have with Jesusa reality she had set aside in her life.
Sometimes we need reminders that God is near. When trials come and God seems far away, remember Julies prayer and the truth that we are just one prayer from connecting with the God of the universe (John 14:13).
I am SO glad to hear Shallie seems to be better, and just pray she will get through all this and live a long happy healthy pampered dog life. :)
Thank you, Polly and Amy, for your posts after I left last night. Nothing like a few cute animals to put a smile on our faces. :)
Oh, heck - here's one more I didn't use yesterday. :)
