so like i mentioned we've been without power or air conditioning for the last 48 hours. today was fast sunday. we all fasted that those who were working on restoring power would be safe and effective in doing their job. and that we'd get power back as soon as possible.
we patiently made our way through today, the second day, and were climbing into our hot beds in our underwear when the lights went back on and the air started up again. we cheered!
then cole suggested we say a prayer of thanks, which we did. my mom cried for relief. i love that God does hear and answer prayers. he does it through so many other people so much of the time. and in my life, i've noticed he answers after he's given me enough time to settle into the difficulty and decide to have good attitude about it. reminds me of abraham a little. your heart has to be commited to submitting to the will of the Lord before he can remove obstacles that were placed there in the first place to see where your heart is.
we saw God today because the lights went on!
