Home

You know.........there is something special about my home. Even though we were only at the Heart Hospital 2 1/2 days, it felt good to come to our home today. I guess it is that way for a lot reasons, but for us......Monty and me........it is where we do most of life together. So being in a hospital room and being together is just not quite the same. I am thankful that our home is a haven for both of us. We enjoy being here together. We enjoy having people here. And we enjoy being home alone some of the time.

As I think about this brief visit to the hospital, I am reminded once again, that all of life is brief. We are just in different locations briefly here on earth, but always wanting to get HOME. And as comfortable as this Home is, there is still a longing to really go HOME.

We didn't really find out much at the hospital, as far as what caused this last episode for Monty. They did change up his meds quite a bit, and are wanting him to go back in two days for more blood work to stay on top of the changes. But, it is kind of like life............there just aren't always answers to "Why?" questions. Often the answer is "wait and see". Isa 40:31 tells us that those who wait on the LORD will renew their strength. We usually think of waiting as a draining of strength. But the word "wait" carries the idea of: "look, long, love, live for".

So we are being strengthened as we WAIT upon the LORD and His timing and His ways to bring us HOME.
