God's precision timing


Cassie and Nathan have given me their permission to blog on the amazing timing of events that they experienced in May.
We were all very aware that Wayman's condition was worsening and while the Taskers had said goodbye in February, they were preparing to cancel events to be here for the funeral when necessary.
They had a booking to play in the Royal Albert Hall in the middle of May and Nathan's team had arranged for the launch of his CD in America to take place about a week later.
Both of these were very important, so we prayed that God would allow them to go ahead.

Nathan played the convention in London while Wayman was still at home.

I imagine it must be most artists dream to play this venue!
Cassie commented that the experience of hearing this wonderful building filled with men singing with great enthusiasm was awe inspiring!

They then had the opportunity to have some time with godly friends in Sheffield.

Wayman went into hospital while they were there, and I rang them as they were driving to Heathrow to catch a flight home to Nashville to tell them that he had gone Home.

The CD launch was also very important, and Nathan's team had put together a wonderful group of people to join him, including Bebo Norman, Plumb, Keith Getty and Charlie Peacock. Nathan's good friends Gabe Scott and Todd Bragg played as well.
This happened the day after they arrived back in Nashville.

It was held at Charlie Peacocks home/studio.


It was streamed live, and Angus and I watched it in my lounge room.

They caught a flight to Australia the next day, arriving on Friday morning to spend the weekend with us before Wayman's funeral.

Are you keeping up with me????

We loved being together at last, and around the dinner table that evening we told stories and marvelled at God's precision timing.

Nathan then told us the news that Cassie is pregnant!!!

There was a lot of hugging and exclaiming and excitement!

Angus was the one who first mentioned God's hand in the timing of this news.
Wayman would have been so very sad if he had known this, as the thought of not seeing the addition to our family would have been heartbreaking for him.

God spared him that.

God really does bless us.....and in this case the blessings are bountiful......

because they are expecting twins!!!!!!!
