Results of the Tenth Visit

I forgot to make a note of this yesterday, but another second Sunday of the month passed by.

Again, a no-show.

But she texted me (last Valentine's day, no less, I forgot to mention it also) saying she could not visit as she was allegedly looking for a higher-paying job.

For one thing, that reason is non-responsive. What's not having a job have to do with not visiting children you have not seen in more than two years?

And another thing, a sane person would never quit a present job until the replacement job is in the bag. People just don't quit jobs anymore without a sure replacement job.

Well, we have a theory and a suspicion why she has not been visiting. She may (and I emphasize may) be pregnant or just given birth. Definitely, it's not mine.

With that theory, everything seems to fall into place. The non-visits and the text from out of the blue.

But I have to confirm that. I'll post an update on this as soon as I have one for you.

Stay tuned...

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
