Joy

I FaceTimed with my husband briefly today so that he could see his daughter. When I saw his face, I was instantly overjoyed. Not because I had wanted to see him, though I had, but because he was just so incredibly happy. There was no doubt for me that he was in his happy place. And yes, I’m sure he was stinky already, and possibly also somewhat dirty (like actual dirt). So, it wasn’t like I would have loved being there, too. But I do wish that I could enjoy such an environment just so I could share in his utter delight in camping and being so fully in nature.

He mentioned that we ought to go tot he next RV show when one is in town, just so we could take a look. I think he’s right. If we had a new one, I might be able to handle the environment. And that would be a game-changer for my ability to go to all these wonderful parks I long to visit and to see all the stars in the night sky like I regularly dream about seeing. That certainly would be very cool.

God, thank you for this joy for my husband. Please, keep him and us and our home safe. Make us well and keep us so. And always show us clearly our next step forward in pursuing and fulfilling your will in our lives. Thank you for this life and this love. Help my cousin to feel the same, please, and grant her your grace of love and your ease, please. In your name, I pray. Amen.
