I am learning more and more about the faithfulness of God in the details of life. Most recently, we were on the Cape prior to the blizzard helping Mom with more of the details of living alone and making more of the necessary legal adjustments. God favored us so completely at the RMV, banks, doctors and such that we got a lot done in a few days. Plus, the extra household helps got done. We left Mom as prepared as we could for the blizzard, then we hurried home to prepare ourselves.

All through the storm we all connected and kept electricity, even Mom. Then Monday morning we got the call from a neighbor. They had lost power Saturday night ... the neighbors were leaving because the prognosis was "no electricity until Thursday night." Mom was cold but didn't want to leave. What God orchestrated next was a symphony of phone calls and caring neighbors that changed the tide and helped Mom decide to go to "the inn" with a neighbor couple to warm up at least for the night. These loving people also offered to drive Mom to CT the next day! How good is God. We made rendezvous plans for the next day. Then we continued in prayer, alerting family to the situation.
Then God
in His infinite compassion & mercy, restored electricity to the neighborhood! We so praise Him! When last we spoke with Mom she was still recovering from the emotional stress & the cold. The house was gradually warming. And the arduous long car trip was averted. We are rejoicing and thankful for all He has done for us.
