ANSWERED PRAYERS

 So far in my world, it's been a week of many emotions.  I won't go into everything as it will accomplish nothing more than making words but I will say it's been a week of busyness, of unanswered questions, of medical visits, of trying to process and hold many things mentally.  Sadly, this is only the fifth day of the week.  I will share that The Husband actually tore a ligament in his knee just getting out of the car here at home after church this past Sunday.  We have determined events like these are a product of the dreaded aging process.  He's improving slowly and walking with a cane but we are thankful it was not one of those torn meniscus things.  I don't need my medical knowledge to increase in that, or at least I don't have time for that right now.  

What I did want to say is an observation I got just now this morning as I sat in my quiet den with my cup of coffee in my hands.  One can ponder well with a cup of coffee and quietness.  With all things behind, things in my life now, and unknown things ahead, I can look around and all I can see is answered prayers.  Prayers I have prayed 50 years ago, 30 years ago, 10 years ago, and even prayers I prayed yesterday.  Give it some thought.  How about you?  Surely you have those answered prayers, too.  Be encouraged in the unknown to come and see the works of the Lord in your own life if for no other reason because of the assurance that HE will never leave you and HE is in control.  

As I sit here typing, my eyes are drawn to a card sent to me a long time ago by The Sweet Pray Without Ceasing Friend.  It was so true then and still encourages me daily.  It might encourage you too so here it is:
