Hidden Treasure

Later, He explained that tragedy was easy to access, but for treasure...I would have to dig.

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field..." Matthew 13:44

February 3: Even If I Can't Sleep


I feel very alone, fat, and inadequate. Where is God's will in all this? My soul is being purged through sleep deprivation.

Found out today, that because I don't have Medicare, respite care and physical therapy is not paid for by my insurance for Steve. 

The Westlake High School-Student Counsel (where I taught) graciously sent over $305 they raised and a box of my favorite snacks.  I've never had so many of my favorite indulging snacks in such close proximity to each other...all touching! Guaranteed to gain enough weight to get me over the 180# mark in just three days.

Nili called today. Feel like, for the most part, all the children have detached; wish I could.

Ok. I praise, I ask for forgiveness, I pray for patience. Where is Your presence? How do I do this? What eternal purposes are designed to glorify You through this? I feel like I just need to run without stopping.

Oh, I just remembered, BCBS doesn't cover "Crisis Care: Caregiver Breakdown." Great, right?

This is where Jesus says, "Gottcha covered....by My blood." What a great assurance policy.

Now I can breathe, even if I can't sleep.

  1. We received your thank you note and the bag of suckers today! That was so sweet but unnecessary! You are such a vital part of WHS and we miss you terribly! The students ask of you daily and can't wait for you to return! Student Council is always happy to do whatever we can for someone who has invested so much into all of our lives here at Westlake!

    We love you and hope to see you soon!

  2. Yes, Robbie, you may feel alone, overwhelmed, and where is God, but then you remember who you are in God, and He is there, everywhere, and all the time. AND so is all of us in the Spirit.
