Dear Lord,
I thank you for another day of your amazing grace to me. Lord, I fail so miserably and you so graciously forgive me. God I ask you to help my family tonight to seek you and your will for our family and for Dad. Our hearts break to see Dad like this and we know you will not give us more than we can bear and you will supply enough grace to see us through. Lord, as mom and us kids have to make tough decisions, I ask that you will give us peace in those decisions. Lord, I thank you for my family and I praise you that we are able to communicate our feelings and thoughts and actaully love each other afterwards! Thank you Lord for your kindness and mercy! Thank you for my mom and her love for us kids and our love for her. We love you and praise you in all things. . . Amen

John & Brandi,
What an awesome thought, to be reminded that the very God the formed this universe, He forged rivers and mountains, made the vast galaxies above......this SAME God sees every sparrow that falls, knows the numbers of hairs on our head......my finite mind cannot wrap around this thought....but Oh, what a comfort it is! Just to know that I (we) can roll everything over on Him, put it all into His very capable hands, and leave it there! We are praying His will be done for you all.
I always read a Proverb and Psalm that correspond with the date....today is the 23rd, so the 23rd Psalm........we know it well, but read the words and let them sink in, meditate on them today!

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

Glory to His name.
We love you and are thinking of you, please let us know if we can help you in any way, ok.
Love, Angi

Just want you to know that Uncle Jim and I are praying for you and Sue and the whole family. My favorite chapter in the whole Bible is Psalm 139......And my favorite hymn is CONSTANTLY ABIDING. It is so comforting to know He will never leave us!
Love you all very much!
