I really do have the best wife. It is a joy to be sheltering in place with her. Maybe it is the isolation together that I has me reflecting on the gifts that derive from waiting on God. It is something at which I have never been particularly good, but for which I have always been grateful when things happen according to God’s timing. I have to admit that most of the time my waiting has been a function of having no other options, but I believe that is in God’s hands, too. It is nice, at this point in my life, to be reminded of what is good in my life. Lorena made shrimp fried rice today. That is what triggered my thinking about the great gifts I have received. And believe it or not, a wife who makes me shrimp fried rice because she knows I love it is not a small gift.
