For Heather - Please Donate

Today is a special day at Boomama's. She is giving us an opportunity to share the love with Heather, the young mother and web designer who has contributed so much to the blogging community. She was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor. Any donations made here will go to help ease the family's expenses as they travel to the Mayo Clinic and her hubby takes off work to be with her. Please donate - but more importantly please pray for this family. We have seen the devastating effects of a brain tumor in our family - but we hold on to a God who holds all things in His hands. If you want to come back later and this post is buried - you should be able to click on the button in the sidebar and go right to the donation site.

Perspective and Prayer Request

I am thankful that the Lord's mercies are new every morning. There was a time when I couldn't have experienced that - a new day. One miserable day seemed to roll into the next, but not so much anymore. And I got a reality check.....
This morning I read about Heather - she is one of the super talented ladies behind the Homeschool Blog Awards. She just found out she has cancer, likely in her brain. Please pray for her and her family. These are surely scary days for all of them. Pray for her healing, the wisdom of doctors, for the Lord to help her with the sense that this is not fair. It doesn't seem fair.
This morning the revelation was this - life is too short to allow insecurity and discouragement rob us of our days. How can I get it so twisted in my feeble little mind?

Lord be with Heather today.
