Today, Mae got her tonsils and adenoids taken out. She did great and was very brave. When she was in the recovery room and napping, I got out my Bible to read. Noticing a page had gotten folded and was sticking out, I opened it to the crinkled page. As I straightened the page, I saw the fold went across a section titled The Sons of Joseph. Genesis 41: 52 "And he named the second (son) E, For , he said, God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.” I read it to Dan... He said, “Are you writing this stuff down?”
This was the 3rd day in a row. Sunday with a song about affliction bringing an eternal weight of glory. Monday, an invitation to consider a boy whose name means 'God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction' and today, Tuesday, pulling my Bible out of my bag with the exact page folded to this scripture. Was this all by chance?
Feeling the weight of wonder and the human awareness that a GREATER Hand is at work leading us. Wow, thank You, Lord.
