Hello, dear FRiends.
How wonderful — just a really deep joy — to be able to be here to update you on my situation, praise God for his love, and thank you, brothers and sisters in Christ.
My family and I are so humbled by your gracious and loving gift of prayer — and so encouraged to see God’s hand at work in so many people, even when the world can seem so dark and heartless. Thank you!
I can honestly say we all felt the literal power of prayer once you guys started ramping up. Sometimes we get an extra insight into the truth that “in Him we live and move and have our being.”
It will be a few more days before we get the complete pathology report and all that. But God honored your requests for an exceptionally smooth and safe surgery — “with bell’s on!” I did have to make a repeat trip to the OR, but, you know, everything worked itself out. My day started with them getting the IV in the first time (a feat almost unheard of my lengthy medical history) and was a series of little victories and encouragements from there.
God worked mightily in the spiritual realm as well as the physical world. Thank you for being part of that.
Now, just because I may get back to being my fully engaged self here on FR, don’t think I couldn’t use the occasional prayer. I’m especially grateful if you’ll shoot up a prayer of THANKSGIVING on my behalf from time to time. I have a “debt” I’ll never be able to repay, you know what I mean?
You know you’ve got my most heartfelt salute to each of you, FRiends.
Thanks again,
FJ
