Since I last posted about David's renewed interest in fly-fishing, he's been on a mission to try out his fly rods - one he's used, and one he's never used, although he bought it sometime in the 1990's. (Yeah, that's how we roll; "I need this now, but I'll hold on to it for 30+ years before testing it.")😂
Last Friday, we rode to Morgan Falls which has some beautiful fishing spots below the dam; he didn't take his rods, but it would have been an ideal time to "test the waters" - pun definitely intended! On Sunday, he went to our side lot to practice his casting. He didn't catch anything other than a few leaves, but it was so good to see him enjoying the moment. 
On Thursday of this week, we went to his sister's home on Wynn's Pond in Coweta County, and he had such a good time trying out his rods; he even caught a few bream! The smile on his face pretty much says it all...He was exhausted after standing for so long, but it was, as he said, "a good tired."
In Psalm 46:10, God reminds us we need only be still. I believe it is in the stillness, we experience His faithfulness to His promises. Perhaps David's desire to go to still waters was a God whisper? Perhaps not, but I saw a peace and joy come over David that I haven't seen in a while. God is good, y'all! He's the Great Physician AND the big smile maker!
