"Waiting is so hard" said the little christian!

Waiting. Waiting. I am such an impatient christian. But God knows this. I prayed with my friend today, "Please don't ask us to wait," we foolishly prayed. And we wait. Not because God is not aware of our need but because He is the One who holds our answers. Cooper's parents requested a meeting with the doctors today. It was scheduled for 3. It was cancelled. Rescheduled for tomorrow. Can the trachea be fixed?...tomorrow...will we know tomorrow?...God knows today. Cooper is His today, yesterday, and tomorrow. Sometimes I think I am so "good" to trust God with our boy; but I am learning that it is God who has entrusted us to look after his little boy,Cooper.
I have a lullabye I sing to Cooper: "Today" by John Denver. Some of the lyrics are "Today is my moment; Today is my treasure, and I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing." If you get a chance listen to the simple song about enjoying what we are given today. Today we have Cooper and I rejoice! GrandmaRie
