5 hours in the ER

Yesterday I was pumped, God had put an awesome message on my heart and I was ready to share. It was titled Jesus "The Rock Star" VS Jesus "The LEPER". I sat down with one of our worship leaders that I am beginning discipleship with and I went over it with him. He shared with me a great verse out of Luke that God laid on his heart that went really great with what God had given me so I was going to have him share at the end of my msg. My wife and son got to the church and we noticed a knot on Aydens head that he had gotten the previous day was extremely bigger. We called the nurse hotline and they said get to the E.R. So I went in talked to my Wed. night team and pulled out an unused Nooma video that tied right in with what Jess had shared with me earlier and asked Michael to lead the upfront activity and away I went. We got to Death Valley I mean Valley View and the waiting room was FULL. We filled out the forms and then had to sit in the waiting room for over 4 hours with a hurt, tired and cranky 19 month old. We were between a kid that might of had R.S.V "EXTREMELY CONTAGIOUS" and some dude that slide his hand up and was bleeding like a stuck pig. After being moved to an exam room for another hour they informed us the internal bleeding had stopped and his body should absorb the excess blood over the next few days, and the swelling would go down. I did have an opportunity to strike up a conversation with the R.S.V kid "came back negative, he just had bad cold" and his mom and grandma. They were like, yeah H2O that is the church that is a little different right and I was like HECK YES we are. Long story short they will be visiting this weekend and I am excited to see what God is going to do.

Blessings
