We--Mr.
MacGreggor and I--have been sloshing through this 'muck' for so long that I
thought I might never see this day.
What day,
you ask?
Well, I will
be sooooooooo glad to tell you!
When God said,
'This is the day that I have made, I will be glad and rejoice in it'...
I have tried
to be faithful to do just that, see things as will be, not what they are.
Look past the circumstances, don't worry about tomorrow...live today and
meet the troubles head on.
Of course I
have been saying these things to Greg, huh Greg?
I have been
studying Hebrews and gleaning some wonderful things (with the help on the
Amplified Version):
"We have the Hope as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul.....It cannot slip...It cannot breakdown on who ever steps out on it.... A hope that reaches farther and enters into the very certainty of the Presence within the veil." (that was Heb. 6:19)
Vs 20 sez: " in which it is impossible for God to prove false or deceive us; We, who have fled to Him for refuge, might have MIGHTY INDWELLING STRENGTH and STRONG ENCOURAGEMENT...to grasp and hold fast the Hope appointed for us..."
After talking to Greg this day (the Lord made) I prayed: "God, you are so faithful...so gracious...so merciful to us who are so challenged by the enemy of our souls....to mistrust, lack trust in your great and precious promises...You are God, The Great I Am!!
It is such a
blessing to have 'crawled, limped, cried, whined', through this abyss of
depression with Greg—
Because he
has come out on the other side.
Today he
said to me, he had it all backward...every morning he figured he was "staring
death in the face"----when now he knows each day is a miracle, a day of
life that he has been given.
Physically and
actually things are still in a 'crisis' mode. Can't see daylight....but
God is showing up all over the place...not in the way we asked for or wanted,
or expected. But God in His infinite wisdom is 'directing' this Greg Toft
drama...and He knows what He is doing and going to do, we just have to TRUST
Him, He knows the way.

He
still has some mighty hurdles to jump, but God will give him wisdom and
strength, or God just might pick him up and jump the hurdles with him...or
just simply remove the hurdles...guess we will wait and see, eh?
Well,
again...hang in there, hang on tight to His hand, and we'll see you here,
there or in the air.
In the
morning!! Crayola
Love and
MORE...
