Dear brothers and sisters,
We are home.
After a morning filled with beloved visitors we came home to another steady stream of visitors this afternoon and evening. How could we ever begin to thank you all for your love and prayers?
Rhonda is in our bed, where she belongs. She is in some pain tonight. Please pray for physical comfort and continued spiritual and emotional strength. Matthew is asleep in his bed too. I will pray, watch the Vancouver vs. Chicago game and force myself to stay awake until 10pm when Rhonda will take her first round of medication for the night.
Through all of this I am learning to trust Jesus; to trust Him in ways I had never imagined. I am learning that the Saviour’s love and care for Rhonda goes deeper than mine. That brings me peace.
So many of you have reminded me to believe for a miracle, and we are. One email quoted the old song,
’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
And to take Him at His Word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
And to know, “Thus says the Lord!”
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!
I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.
It is sweet, indeed.
Good night dear, dear friends.

Hi Ray David, Rhonda and Matthew,
Words can’t really describe how deep is God’s love for us. That is the best gift that the Lord has given us. I love you all and care about you all.
Love from,

Dear Ray David, Rhonda and Matthew:
Last evening on Full Circle we were told of Rhonda’s great need for our prayers and I can only imagine the huge ‘full circle’ of we viewers standing like mighty warriors in fervant and believing healing prayer over you Rhonda. May Jesus shower your little Nest with His sweet abiding peace Ray David, Rhonda and Matthew.
God Bless You,
Barb.
Dear Ray David, Rhonda and Matthew,
we wish we could do more than to just keep you in our thoughts and prayers but we also know that the Lord hears prayers and for this reason there is hope. You are a special family that we think of often. We miss you and will continue to pray for each of you for courage, rest, peace and healing.
with love,
Tim, Jenifer, Jacob, Hannah and Adelie
Our thoughts and prayers are with you constantly. Glad to know Rhonda is home. You are very special to us and even more so to our Heavenly Father.
God Bless you
Lois & Wayne
