Well happy Sunday to you my sweet blog friends! As I as am writing to you I am basking in the sun at the base of a gorgeous mountain as my kids (young adults really) are tearing up the mountain. It is simply a spectacular day in the rockies (like my socks?). We came up to watch the Dew Tour, it's a Blevins tradition! We spent 3 days watching the pros board and ski the most wicked terrain and now T and Z are out there trying trying their best to emulate what they have seen....contrary to me pleading for them to "be smart" as they took off without kissing their momma. Yes, I am over protective. I'm forcing J to go tubing with me shortly, the kids shouldn't be having all the fun! He thinks I'm " too fragile" to go.... but I say lets throw some caution to the wind! When I had a check in at the hospital last week I was informed I was moved to first posiiton on the national donor list, so we better enjoy every second we have right now! Because it's all gonna change very soon!
I've had to come to terms with a few things lately, and while it doesn't thrill me... there is a reality to face and the most important thing I need to focus on is my my health. I'm not about to do Gods job for Him, and I will not presume to know how this is gonna pan out. Ruthless trust. I'm going to stay in the moment, every moment. And what lies 4, 6, 10 months from now I cannot conceive. But I can make snow angels at midnight right now if I choose, and yes we did! It was freezing cold, but oh so worth it!
For today I want to leave you with an excerpt from the Prayer of Jebez. If you haven't read it I highly recommend it! See you soon friends! We're off to the tubing hill.... Wish me luck!
"My God, bless me indeed. Give me the healthy soul. Heal me of my spiritual diseases. Jehovah Rophi come, and purge out the leprosy that is in my heart by nature: make me healthy in the heavenly sense, that I may not be put aside among the unclean, but allowed to stand amongst the congregation of thy saints. Bless my bodily health to me that I may use it rightly, spending the strength I have in thy service and to thy glory; otherwise, though blessed with health, I may not be blessed indeed."
