Update 11/7/2012 By Dave

Carla Update… Wednesday, November 7, 12 – The picture today is of Carla’s two sisters and two daughters that visited her on her birthday. As you can see they are having a good time. Carla appreciated their visit. The first principle of the gospel is faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Faith means trust—trust in God’s will, trust in His way of doing things, and trust in His timetable. The issue for us is trusting God enough to also trust His timing. If we can truly believe He has our welfare at heart, may we not let His plans unfold as He thinks best? The same is true with all those matters wherein our faith needs to include faith in the Lord’s timing for us personally, not just in His overall plans and purposes. Indeed, we cannot have true faith in the Lord without also having complete trust in the Lord’s will and in the Lord’s timing. An exciting day! Carla FINALLY got moved out of ICU after 3 long weeks and back to Craig Hospital this afternoon. She gets to start her road to recovery at Craig. Her room is VERY nice. It’s more like two rooms in one so at least two family members can sleep there. It includes kitchen, lots of open shelving, large TV and lots of windows. Her room is adorned with nearly 150 birthday and get-well cards plus drawings from grand children. The family is very excited about this progress! Her condition will be completely re-evaluated by the Craig medical team as they begin rehabilitation. Dave and I had a great weekend “at home”. We did not get to leave Lehi till 4:30 in the afternoon yesterday, so it was a real late night. The weather has been so perfect for travel. Thanks again for your love and prayers that sustain us emotionally and spiritually.
