One week before the Super Bowl, I realized it had been awhile since Bree or Joseph had called or emailed. I sent a text to touch base. When Super Bowl came around, I was concerned that I still had not heard from them. By Monday of this week, I was becoming consumed with concern. Joseph's being a State Trooper is cause for much concern regarding his safety. Tuesday, I was withdrawn and aching to hear from them. By last night, I couldn't even sleep. Woody assured me that they would soon call. I checked messages all day today hoping to hear from them. But in the midst of all this I prayed that God keep them safe and let them know that I love them. I asked for patience & faith that all was okay. But inside I was wondering if I had done anything that pushed them away. Then last night, we found a note on the door. A package awaited us at the office. At the office, we had a floral delivery. They were delivered yesterday, but we didn't know. While I sat up all night Wednesday thinking my kids forgot me, I had flowers sitting there waiting for me. Shortly, afterwards, they called. And, yes, they love me! This is an example which explains why the bible speaks about worry being a sin. I spent hours worried for nothing. Thank you, God. Thank you for this son of mine and his lovely wife that lift me up, love me, and bless me. Now I can sleep, now my heart sings with joy.
