The picture today is of Carla sunning herself in the garden at Craig and communicating with her husband Richard. She is very happy outside in her chair and in the sun.
“Be patient in afflictions, for thou shall have many; but endure them, for lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days.” This scripture gives us words to live by. Interestingly, the Apostle Paul testifies that “we are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.” Most of us at some time in our lives feel the chill winds of adversity. It may seem that there is no end in sight. While adversity may be slow to leave us, we can choose to leave it any time. The Lord’s promise to us is: “Lift up your heads and be of good comfort, for… I will ease thy burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs.” He
lp us God to be thankful for our adversity and give us the faith to see beyond today’s trial.
Today has been a good day for Carla. She was awake, very responsive and in her chair for about 6 hours. She seemed to be very happy and really enjoyed visiting with her family: mom, dad, husband and daughter. She loves being outside in the warm sun. You should see the look on her face when she lets us know that she does NOT want to be put back into her bed! She clearly understands how to communicate that desire! We are excited and thankful for her progress. She also had a good day yesterday, but today was even better. She’s gaining more strength that is a prerequisite for more blessings and miracles. Our hopes are strong and we never ease in our pleas with Divinity to heal our daughter. She’s so special to so many people. We firmly believe that the Lord has countless miracles in store for her and her family. We have the patience to wait for Him. Thank you family and friends for your continuing support and prayers.
