~Not To Be Lost In The Shuffle~

~

This weekend my youngest has been

asked to be a flower girl in a family wedding.

This wedding is on the other side of one

of our nearby mountain ranges.

My youngest needs to arrive early,

for rehearsal. Being the youngest of 4 sisters,

one with special needs, it can be easy

to become lost in the shuffle. She asked me

if there is any way her and I could go by

ourselves and spend the night together.

And the rest of the family show up

in time for the wedding. She even said that we

did not even need to go out and buy any food for it

that she would be willing to have us pack up our own

food that she just wanted the time out

with mom more then anything. I knew this was

a very important request from her so I began to

pray about it. I asked the Lord, if He was willing,

could he provide for this request. On Tuesday we

got a call from a family member saying that 2 rooms,

at a hotel in the nearby town of the wedding, were not

going to be used by other family members and that

they were ours for our family if we wanted them.

This makes it so my youngest and myself can go over a day

early, be ready for the rehearsal and spend some

time together and then the next day the whole family

will get to stay over for a night. These are available without

our family having to pay for them. This was more then

we could have hoped for. I am so thankful

for this time with my daughter and you

should see the smile on her face as she looks forward

to this weekend! She is not lost in the shuffle,

Our Lord fully sees her and knows just what she needs!

Thank you Jesus that you see us

so that we may never be lost!

Matthew 18:14

In the same way your Father in

heaven is not willing that any of these

little ones should be lost.
