Juergen is going to see his mom this weekend (God willing). You know we have been praying allot for her to be healed. She seems to be getting worse. She is home from the hospital (she fell and broke her hip). She basically can not sit up, walk, feed herself, or even talk on the phone right now. It is difficult to understand when we should give up praying for healing and just accept death. Everyone deals with this kind of stuff differently. Her 70TH birthday party was kind of strange.Everyone was so sad, as if she had already died. I guess they just want some peace. Hope can some times be painful...acceptance can bring peace. But I don't want to accept this, at least not yet. I will not fail to love God if she dies, but I won't stop asking for her life while she still has life. I think it will be a very hard weekend. I'll be here with the kids. Sarah will probably be really sad and insecure having her Papa gone. Juergen will also be very sad. Please pray for him. Please also pray for Juergen's mom. I will accept God's will, but Jesus told us to pray for what we will!
Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
