I have NO water. Water pressure is zip, zero, nada. I have the well guy coming out in the morning. I feel ridiculous posting here, AGAIN. I told the children God is giving us another opportunity to trust in Him. So, that is what I am doing. My dh and I took a long walk tonight at 11pm and discussed how we are going to teach the children trust in God in hardships by our example and not the despair and wringing of hands we usually do.

So! If you have another prayer in there for me, yet again, that would be awesome if you could send it up. Tell Him I am totally trusting Him no matter what.

I'll offer this beautiful cross He has sent us for all of your intentions here.

Thank you!

Praying for you and your family. I remember living off well water when I was growing up and having the pump go out, the pipes freeze, etc. I hope that your well guy repairs it soon!

You and your wonderful husband keep trusting, and I'm gonna keep praying you right through this!

You're doing great, Maddie! God is so well pleased with your joy and trust!

Hey! I did it. I just did the next thing next and took it all in stride with plenty of prayer.

Our pump had a broken switch, we don't need a new well!

Okay, I am done posting on this forum. I think I used up my yearly prayer allowance here!

Thank you for all the kind words and prayers.

For your peace and happiness, I will be happy if you do not need to post here again! But, on the off chance that you could use some prayers in the future, you know where to find us and we're super happy and privileged to pray for each other! Thank *you* for praying for all of the intentions here.

Love,
