Predictions…and Other Plans
When Anna was 21 years old, all the signs pointed to the fact that she had Lupus. The doctors told her (predicted) that she should prepare for the real possibility of never having children….ever. But God had other plans…
When I moved to Georgia, I expected to work for around four to six months as an interim pastor, and then go back to Virginia and whatever the next step would be. But God had other plans…
I just gave a piggy-back ride to one of those “Other Plans”
I just changed a poopy diaper of one of those “Other Plans”
And I am pleased to announce to the Xanga world the birth of our second “Other Plan”
Please welcome Lillian Elizabeth! (Lily Beth for short.)
She is a darling, and all are well. May God bless all y’all with such blessings! I’m so glad the Lord had other plans!
This is Ezekiel’s first meeting with his sister, Lily Beth:
