May you be washed by the Spirit today. Wha...KATE,<br /><br />May you be washed by the Spirit today. What great news from the people who witnessed Lucy and gave you their wonderful comments (blessings) about her recovery. For some reason God has sent me to you with this, please listen to "Blessings" sung by Laura Story. It would be great if you add it to your play list.<br /><br />I may never meet you, but it is because of you and Lucy that I have decided to donate a little bit of money to St. Judes. In these times of needs (which there always will be) it is sometimes hard to decide where to give our money. It's not much, but it's all I personally have to give monetarily. May a family be blessed by it exponentially for God's Kingdom. I praise God for you! You are the gateway of this gift. Thank you.<br />ChristinaChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00387390245986178446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845195637603537263.post-21428418367129684092011-11-20T01:36:47.041-06:002011-11-20T01:36:47.041-06:00Continuing to pray...

What a great idea!<br /><br />It's hard (impossible?) not to worry, but having done it myself every single minute of every day for months now, I agree that it truly will make one insane, and it is exhausting, nauseating, and soul draining. It's a waste, as it changes absolutely nothing. After losing 25 pounds to worry, I've really decided to pray, hope, and don't worry. God meant for us to be anxious for nothing. Once we cast our concerns upon him, we must leave them there, as hard as it is to do so.<br /><br />Praying that your beautiful family has the happiest of holidays (with no medical emergencies)! Little Jack has grown so and just gets cuter and cuter. I can just imagine all the mischief that he must get into.Galenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14132369804080588683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845195637603537263.post-74193880845728915702011-11-19T15:14:30.342-06:002011-11-19T15:14:30.342-06:00Fantastic news!!

I'm so happy for Lucy that she's starting to feel better. I've been truly touched by your journey (although I can't imagine what your family especially Lucy has been through) I've always said to my husband that someday when I have the money I'm going to donate to St. Jude's. Just an awesome hospital for children. I just wanted you to know what an amazing family you have (as if you didn't know that already). I'm going to keep praying for your family and your daughters health. They were right you all need to start to live again.

Those moments are horrific for parents (and children). You do need to get back to living and it does get easier and come more naturally as time goes by. But, it is always amazing to me how something can trigger those feelings to come back and overwhelm you in a snap. It's both sorrowful and cathartic at the same time! :) I hope someday you are the one peeking in on someone else's life, being reminded to thank God for His blessings and His grace, far past these days of healing.<br /><br />With continued prayers,<br />MelissaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845195637603537263.post-89771066609218873742011-11-18T08:34:49.394-06:002011-11-18T08:34:49.394-06:00So glad that Lucy was able to get her line removed...So glad that Lucy was able to get her line removed. I love the picture of her and Ella, it's beautiful. Our family continues to pray for Lucy and your family daily. Every time we pray for anything, (morning, dinner, bed time, church, etc...) Lucy is the first person mentioned from my 2 year old. I will be praying for you especially, to have a peaceful heart during this holiday season.

She has been through more than what most of us adults will ever know, and still she smiles.<br />Kate, I am so grateful for you, Lucy, and your blog. As I did a great deal of yard work yesterday, all I could think about was all that I am thankful for, and your family came to mind. I am beyond grateful for Lucy's courage, and your ability to so clearly communicate her trials, your concerns, and your family's daily life. Even more, I'm grateful for the cross of Jesus, and the powerful healing and salvation of His resurrection! Thank you, Kate, you and Lucy are precious to so many of us because you continually remind us to be grateful for salvation, healing, life, and most definitely, our children. Children really are a blessing from the Lord. I believe that you probably know that far more than I do, but you're helping me to appreciate mine even more than what I had. Thank you for just being you by being real on your blog. Have an amazingly blessed Thanksgiving!<br />Charity, Atoka, TNAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845195637603537263.post-35570744354887831332011-11-18T07:46:06.703-06:002011-11-18T07:46:06.703-06:00What a blessing today was!
