Update #12

Hi... Sorry it's been soo long since I've sent out an update. Things were going very well. They are still going pretty good, but I am sitting in a hospital room again with Marcus as I type this. He has pneumonia again. He is older, bigger and stronger this time - 10 pounds 5 ounces now. It is not as bad this time and we are in the hospital in Prescott. He was admitted yesterday and will probably only have to be here for a few days. We would still appreciate your prayers for him and for our family.

We are doing pretty well. The Lord is good and faithful to keep His promises. Isn't it comforting to know that He loves us and cares for us? This life, in this world is so full of trouble and pain - no one is immune, it comes to everyone. I don't know about you, but I know I need a crutch. I'd never have made it this far without God. John 16:33 - "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." John 14:27 "Peace I Leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." I could not have peace without Him.

Thank you for your prayers for us. I will try to get some pictures on here again soon. Marcus has grown and changed so much. Thank you again.

Philippians 4: 4-7 "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

Bathe your mind in scripture and rest peacefully in Him.
