After giving his all, we're in for another round at the academy. I couldn't have asked any more from Ben than what he gave, bless his heart. Running with a broken foot put him a very painful (emotionally as well as physically) 6 seconds over the mark. Without much time for recuperating, another attempt was made, but it was not meant to be this time. But, it wasn't for lack of trying.
Ben's been given the opportunity to "re-tread" and start the academy over again from day one. Day one starts tomorrow. No rest for the weary. If his foot continues to worsen, there is the possibility of being granted some time off to heal. He'll just have to take it one day at a time. At least he knows it's nothing he can't do. He's done it all already, and quite well at that.
So, as with everything, it's all in God's timing and we leave it in His hands. The boy's and I will have to make it without a daddy for a little while longer. And Ben will have to keep pushing on. We may never know God's reasoning for this little speed bump, and maybe we should be thankful we don't know. But, we remain ever faithful that we are working for His will and that He knows the greater good; a plan greater than we could imagine, tenfold.
