Day 4

We woke up feeling much better! Rory was still a bit weak but doing well. He did an amazing job getting our luggage on top of the car and secured down even with not feeling 100%. We were happy to get back on the road and thankful that the Lord had healed our bodies! God is sooo faithful!
We made it from Albuquerque, NM to Erick, OK. Erick is just inside Oklahoma about 10 minutes. Around suppertime we had stopped for gas in Amarillo, TX. Our car was down to a little over a quarter of a tank of gas left. It took a little under $10 to fill our car. This was an amazing miracle. We have never seen our car fill up for this small amount even with how cheap the gas was. We were and are so thankful to the Lord! The weather has been amazing and we haven't needed our tarp over the suitcases. The kids have been amazing and really are enjoying the trip. Jacob even said on the 2nd morning in Albuquerque, NM. "Mommy, this was so fun to stay in the hotel one more day. It was like a vacation!" Sometimes things look different than what we are expecting but the Lord shows up and shows us His purposes. He has really been telling us to relax and enjoy the trip. He doesn't want us to stress about getting there as quick as we had been planning on but to really enjoy this time together as a family. We are really trying to purpose in our hearts to do that. God is sooo good and sooo faithful! We truly love Him and are thankful to be in His family!
