My mother's sister's husband died suddenly and unexpectedly Friday morning.
They live in Ft.Lauderdale, FL. (They are the ones we went and visited while in Tampa.)
Anyway, they have asked my husband to do the service today. We are in Ft. Lauderdale right now. We got here yesterday at 2:00 and are leaving in the morning at 6:15 (so we have to be at the airport at 5:00 a.m ) We fly into Kansas City at 10:56 a.m. and then have to drive 6-7 hours on to Mattoon, IL for hubby to preach. Then on Thursday, we go to St. Louis for a marriage retreat for 3 days then go back to Mattoon, then on Monday, we drive home which takes 9-10 hours.
I am already EXHAUSTED!!!!!!!! This is and has been a rough period for me, I am having a hard time with a lot of stuff right now and this was not needed.
Pray for us this evening. The service is at 7:00 pm and we have to be there for the viewing at 4:00, so we'll be there from 4-8 and then come back here to a bunch of stuff---(smoking and drinking and cussing and that kinda stuff.)
I would not hang around for all the "stuff" if I were you but when you are the weakest, God will come to you with grace and His power to make you strong.
God bless you dear sister, I will remember you in prayer as I know it surely is a difficult time for you and Coon. You will see a special anointing on Him during this time of testing.

I'm sorry to hear that and will pray for you and your husbands strength today.

LCS,
I am sorry about your familys sudden loss. I will be praying for the loved ones. As far as the cussing, smoking, and drinking go I would just put my foot down and tell Coonskinner he can't do any of that.
May the Lord be with you and your husband and give you both
strength and courage. Our bodies and spirits become tired and
weary but the Lord can and will lift us up. May He be with you
in all these obligations, in Jesus Name!
