Being Still

No, I haven't completely forgotten to update the blog. We still haven't gotten the results yet. I talked to a nurse yesterday and she said we would probably be getting the results on Monday. So we are still waiting...

"Be still, and know that I am God." Psalms 46:10

I think in this time of waiting, we have been given the opportunity to just be still. We are not running around wondering what we need to do next, or how to make the next step happen. We are not planning care for Brant or figuring out the best way to handle another hospital stay. We aren't juggling Kyle's work schedule with appointments and testing. We are just being still, and knowing that God is God, and we are not. We know that both our boys were fearfully and wonderfully made. His works are wonderful. (Psalms 139) We know that God has a plan for us, plans to prosper us, and not to harm us. Plans to give us a hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29) We know that the same God that created the heavens and the earth, made our little guys. We know that our heavenly Father loves us an immeasurable amount, and we know we love Him.

I am ready to know if Beckett has Hirschsprung's Disease, and if his little colon can be "fixed," or if we need to continue investigating why his tummy hurts and why he is slow to gain weight. But I think in this time of waiting, we can be thankful for this time to be still and focus on what we know about God- all powerful, all knowing God.

Thanks for checking on us. I hope to have an update for you soon, but for now we are just being still.
