Trusting the Lord in Every Situation ... Antoinette's Grandma

*This update is from Antoinette on her Grandma who is finishing her race here on earth. Please pray for Antoinette and her family who are living with their grandparents to care for them...it is especially difficult because they have a very close relationship, but as you will see from the prayer request below, they are trusting the LORD and have a very precious outlook on the situation* ~Prayer Team

Grandma is doing much better, but still very weak and know our days with her are few in number and cherish every moment we have with her.  She has her good days and rough days, but over all she is in such good spirits and is such a trooper with all she has been through.  What a blessing to know she will be in Paradise and will see her again one day.   Now that we have officially moved in with our grandparents, life seems to be slowing down a little for at least a short time (knowing what lies ahead after grandma passes away) and take every moment to use for God’s glory and be as productive as we can!  We still hope to move to the south someday in the future, but for now our place is here in a senior mobile home park with my grandparents caring for grandma.  After that, only the Lord knows and we rest in His sovereign timing in everything.  What an amazing God we serve that can use circumstances like these to teach us so much and instead of tearing us down or making us depressed, it is doing the opposite and growing us in our knowledge of the Savior, and all we can do is give Him the glory and thank Him for this unexpected, blessedly chaotic life we live! ~Antoinette
