day three.

Its been a great day at the beach! Lots of fun, sun, family and food!! haha

Had Pineapple Willy's for the first time ever..crazy, I know. haha
And their chicken fingers were yummy!!! :)

But..today has also been an overwhelming sort of day. I have a great Aunt

who has been battling cancer and this morning we got news that it was now

in her brain. And they're calling in hospice. Not exactly news you can prepare

yourself for. Then as we were getting ready to head out for dinner we got a

phone call saying that my Aunt's Stepmother had a heart attack and it wasnt

looking good for her at all..80% of her arteries are blocked. Then just as we

were finishing up dinner we get another phone call saying that my great Uncle,

who has also been battling cancer, took a turn and was put into ICU..........

Sometimes life can be overwhelming.

And a lot of the time, confusing.

But if you sit back and remember just WHO has everything in the palm of His

hand..who controls everything and knows everything...it gets a little more easy

to breathe. Sometimes things happen that we cant begin to understand the

reasons behind. But I think its best that we dont try. Instead, we should TRUST.
I know that God can and DOES move mountains. And I also know that God

comforts and heals the broken hearted. Its THESE TRUTHS that we must

lean on and cling to in times like these. Take on His strength when we are

weak. Have His peace, when we are so torn and hurt and confused by the

things of this world. So, if you're reading...say a prayer for my family

please. Both for these individuals and for the family members that are

needing just that very peace and strength in this time.....
