Day 106 - September 29 - Updates

The doctors are doing a chest X-ray this morning because of the episode last night, but they seem convinced that it was caused by anxiety and not a physical thing. Connor is really being overwhelmed with fear and anxiety - he feels helpless to do anything about what happens around him, and so he is nearly always in an elevated state of anxiety. He really needs the Lord to minister to him in this, and to remember what he already knows. Please be praying about this.

The first of the two cultures for MRSA came back clear this morning! That's an answer to prayer. We need to wait until tomorrow for the second culture to come back, so continue to pray that the boy is finally over that hurdle.

Two big "thank you"s - first, to Brad for all the new upgrades on the website. Wow, bro - you continue to overwhelm us with both your generosity and your technical prowess! Second, thanks to all of you for your continued prayer, encouragement, and support - I honestly do not know what we would do without y'all acting as the hands of God.

- Eric

I know yesterday was the letter X, but I forgot to post mine. I also know that it's sort of cheating because it isn't an english word.

хвататъ (or XBATATb if my cut and paste doesn't show up)[in Russian the letter x is pronounced like you would pronounce and H, which is why it's sort of cheating] , is a Russian word that means to be sufficient, or to be enough. It can also be used to mean that something will last you for some specified period of time.

God, His grace, and His love are more than sufficient, more than we deserve, and they will last us forever.

I love you all, and you are constantly in my thoughts and prayers.

"To GOD be the Glory for the things HE has Done"...
That song seems so appropriate for todays blessing for Connor.
GOD is moving and doing things.
Praise HIS name. Thank you, LORD.

Prayers are being prayed for Connor's lungs, surgery and to over-come his fear.

Eric, As far as I am concerned, I will never tire of praying for all of you. God is good and we know that, but it is hard to figure out what He has next for us. Let God give you His strength. Take time to rest. Conner is in good Hands. I thought of "Zest". Zest for God's Word. Marge from Spring Creek, NV
