Sometimes answers to prayer are just a bit too startling!!!!
Well, I have been fretting about this home teaching job. I received more ominous information several times today that made it seem more and more impossible. I have, however, kept feeling really led to try and help this young student, so.... struggling all day about it.
On the way home I had to get gas and fill a couple of prescriptions. I was frustrated with myself for not stopping for either sooner--I literally was driving around on less than a tank of gas--and Alannah's pill box was empty as of tomorrow morning. (the GOOD pill....not good!!!!) But it just seemed like things kept popping up and preventing me from doing those chores. To add to my consternation, there was a really long line at CVS. (There is never a line there!)
But, if I hadn't had any of those bothers today, I wouldn't have noticed that my new student and his mother were waiting for a prescription right in front of me! I just about passed out right there, because I had totally not been expecting that I would ever see this kid. Plus, I was so "guilty" of thinking, fretting and praying about the two of them right at that moment!!!! So I caught my breath and my pounding heart and waved a cheery HELLO! accross the lines. The mom hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly, she brightened up and came right over. I was able to reinforce with the student how happy I was to be working with him, and the mother was very happy to tell me that she would be making sure that he got there the next day.
Now all of you better start praying!!!!!! And I'm looking up Debbie's #.......
