Gratitude

I sit here this morning in gratitude--overwhelmed by all the love and kindness that envelope us. Jeff and the girls are my blessings and I see how Jeff's strength, integrity and grace continue to help me grow. I pray everyday to hear God's voice and follow his direction. My miracle has already happened in the life that is my husband. Jeff's miracle is there--waiting to be unveiled to us when we are peaceful and trusting enough to see it. Today I just want to be grateful for the constant goodness that is around us. We are strong because of the strength of those around us. We are never separated from God's constant care and love.

What a fitting title for two people show gratitude daily to everyone they know.

I am praying that you will find strength today and for the days to come.

P.S. I'm glad that Jeff made it out of the hospital with his shoes this time! Love to you both.

What a blessing to spend time with your precious babies, Lauren and Ashtyn! We continue to pray for all of you.....that you feel God's comfort and peace.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope.
Romans 15:13

Much love,
Kathy and Tim Carlisle

We join our hearts with yours praying for God's mercy and for complete healing for Jeff. What a joy to know that Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father interceding in your behalf.

We've been in God's waiting room before and it's hard. Our hearts ache with yours. We wait with you and pray for God's comfort, strength, and richest blessings to be yours.

Holly,

I came across this quote and thought of you, Jeff and the girls:

"It is this belief in a power larger than myself and other than myself, which allows me to venture into the unknown and even the unknowable." ~Maya Angelou

Upon hearing that line, I thought of my friends, the Melton's, who have such an amazing strength and (with that strength) faith. Continue to be strong, but know we're here to help support you when you need us.

All our love,
Lynn and Mike
