God Gives Us Opportunities to Depend on Him

Sometimes all you can do is pray.  It was the first night of our trip, and everyone had settled down for sleep after a fun first day of the trip in Colorado. Suddenly, at 3:30 a.m., Maddi became violently ill.  Worried about altitude sickness, dehydration, or a multitude of illnesses, and knowing we had a long week ahead of us, The decision was made to not take any chances and we departed for the children's hospital at 3:30 a.m.    Times like these teach people how to truly pray.  And pray is exactly what we did!

God is always faithful!  Maddi quickly began to recover--remarkably fast!!  It was evident that God was with us, and no stomach virus was going to take that away!  By 7 a.m. Maddi was released from the hospital, and by 9:30 a.m. we were all on our way to church--everyone together.  By noon we were on our way to South Dakota, Maddi laughing and smiling from the back of the van.
