With Paul's knee replacement surgery and Christmas just around the corner, Gail has become a list making machine. Christiane, Rebecca, Rick and Roger are all coming for Christmas so there is much to do in order to prepare ahead of time since Paul's surgery is the week before Christmas. Not only is the family coming home for the Christmas holiday we are hosting a dinner party this Friday evening and our church board Christmas party Saturday evening. Gail knows that Paul will be out of commission for several weeks, so now is the time to pile on the work. She has said more than once that Paul will be very happy to get to the hospital so he can rest.
Making a list and checking it twice!!!!
Being prepared is important part of the Christian life. We never know when a situation might cross our path and God can use us as His hands and feet to minister in certain situations. Gail and Paul have an idea of the events that are going to transpire in the next few weeks but we don't always know when life is going to throw us a curve ball. Being prepared for the sudden interruptions in our life is just as important as being prepared for the things that we have planned. In fact in I Peter 3:15 encourages you to, "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect."
Blessings and Encouragement,
Paul, Gail, Patsy, and Penny
