Rotten fruit, pt 2

Since my post about being rotten, I have felt much better. I spent a lot of time praying and worshipping alone in my apartment after that and I feel like a new person. I have been praying and having my quiet times regularly and wadda ya know? I feel GREAT!

Now. A few posts back I told you about our friend Blaine who is very ill. I was talking with Lili yesterday about Blaine, and we both shared that lately we have felt so much love for him. Like, not in a attracted to Blaine way but I think it's agape. Or something. I don't know how to explain it. He is feeling so scared and confused right now, and I honestly think God is allowing Lili and I to love Blaine for Him. I mean, I know God shows him love, but I dunno that Blaine can see that. But I think Blaine seeing it through me and Lili, will reveal God's love to him. Does that make sense? I almost have this feeling that this is our last summer with Blaine, and I want to make sure that if it is, he goes knowing how much he was loved by us and Jesus.

Matt let me shave his head and beard last night, and I must say he is much more attractive. I think he looks like Bruce Willis. Aye aye!

Tomorrow is our anniversarry. Thanks for the e-card, Karen! We are going to the starlight concert at the river amphiteather. Don't know who is playing, but hey it's free, and we are all about free stuff. Plus, outside concerts are just great. Minus the horrific smell of the Arkansas river, and 10 times more chiggers than you will ever see in a pile of pine straw and bama, it should be fun.

Well, off to pring off stock charts for Momma!

UPDATE!!! I just got a call from Lili that Blaine's brother is a perfect bone marrow match, so now they can proceed with a bone marrow transplant that could potentially cure this all!!!
