Mom in Recovery

Dr. Malviya talked to us about noon, and said they were finishing up with Mom's surgery, and that things went well. No big surprises. They will have more test results probably by the end of the week. He expects things to go well.

We (Bonnie, Allan, Dad, and John with me) just ate lunch, and expect to see her when she is out of "recovery".

We are so thankful, so thankful.
Always, God holds her and cares for her.
We are thankful.

Jesus, please heal my Mommy.

Jesus, please heal my Mommy.
This is my prayer.
A simple child prayer.
I stand back in awe, knowing You are love, knowing you have all knowledge and power.
Knowing that you hold me in your arms as a little child.

Where did I learn about that love?
And how did I learn to feel it?
I learned as a child.
I learned from my Mommy and my Daddy.

And if You hold me, then certainly, You hold them who taught me.

Tomorrow morning, in just a few hours, my Mommy will share my surgeon, Dr. Malviya.
He will take out the cancer inside her.

Please bless Dr. Malviya.
And please help him and the team as they do their work.
Thank you for their wisdom and compassion.

Please help my Mommy to be strong through surgery and recovery.
Please help us to trust You with child-like faith.
Jesus, please heal my Mommy.


And may we live your love with every breath.



Matthew 18:3-4 (Contemporary English Version)
"Then Jesus said:
'I promise you this. If you don't change and become like a child, you will never get into the kingdom of heaven. But if you are as humble as this child, you are the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.'"
