Did you think to pray?

Nicole had another clinic visit today with her bone marrow aspiration.  Her blood work is looking good.  We don't know the result from the aspiration yet.  We should know by Tuesday what is going on.  For now it is just a waiting a game. 

As I woke up this morning the first words in my mind were the word to the hymn "Did you think to pray" third verse:
 When sore trials came upon you,
Did you think to pray?
When your soul was full of sorrow,
Balm of Gilead did you borrow
At the gates of day?
[“Did You Think to Pray?” Hymns, 2002, no. 140]

I hadn't even left my bed when the Lord was sending a reminder to not forget Him this morning.  How grateful I am for prayer.  How grateful I am that our Father in Heaven hasn't forgotten me.  We are never "out of sight out of mind" to Him.  He is mindful of us.  He has sent reminders this week that He remembers me through dear friends feeling a prompting and acting on those promptings.  He was reminding me this morning to remember Him.  To remember He is there for me.  He knows my heart and what is really going on with Nicole more then I do.  He always has a non-judgmental ear.

Nicole was camera shy today!

I finally got a picture of her!
