Change of Plans

The heart of man plans his way,
but the LORD establishes his steps. Prov. 16:9
    The last post, I mentioned that we were packing up for Cambodia. The Lord has changed our plans.
    On Tuesday afternoon as I was packing up the last few things and preparing for our trip, I was interrupted by a visitor. One of the other ladies had gotten a call that the men had had an accident. Darren was involved and was being taken to the hospital for xrays on his foot. I was relieved that it was simply a foot they were concerned about, because motorcycle accidents can be so bad!
    It turned out that they didn't find any break, but did remove the nail and put 12 stitches in, including some where the nail had been. He had a severe sprain and some burst blood vessels besides.
The amazing thing is that this injury was actually worse than the ones he got from his tumble down the falls! We measured that when we went back, and found that it was around 60 ft. from the top to were he landed! God is good!
    Now he is down recovering. The foot was very painful at first, but the pain is beginning to lessen.
    But of course that has meant a change of plans! We are thankful that we know - "All things work together for good to those that love him." We do love him, so we know he has some good thing for us through it all.
