Well, everyday. But, so much more today--thus the phone message. <BR/><BR/>After reading today's "bug blog" I now know why. Oh, my sister-in-heart, I don't have any answers for you as to why all of this is happening to Connor. I, too, want to drive down to Children's and "kidnap" the three of you. But, THANK THE LORD, that you took Connor to Children's when you did. Yes, you went there because of a high fever. You didn't anticipate this long of a stay. I praise the Lord that Children's is so close to your home and your family and friends. Please depend on us to be helpful to you, Randy and Connor. We are the body of Christ and we want to help.<BR/><BR/>Today, Olivia asked me to play the Family Life "I Still Do" CD from Mom and Dad. It is filled with such wonderful songs meant for two people in love within the confines of marriage. However, each song touched me in such a special way as I prayed for you and thought of our little bug at Children's. <BR/><BR/>I wanted to share the words of "Be Thou My Vision" and remind you of the Women of Faith Conference in October. Wasn't it awesome to hear so many sisters-in-faith sing their hearts out to the Lord? But, after reading tonight's blog entries I thought the words to "I Will Rise Up" would be more appropriate for you. I know that this is what you are already doing. So let the following words serve as an confirmation and an encouragement to you that you are truly in the presence of the Mighty Healer.<BR/><BR/>"I Will Rise Up" <BR/><BR/>You're calling me to a deeper place<BR/>You're calling me to come away<BR/>This is the day that You have made<BR/>To walk in Your love<BR/>And Your grace<BR/>And I will sing to You, my King<BR/>Forever and ever<BR/><BR/>I will rise up<BR/>And worship Your holiness<BR/>I will sing a song<BR/>Of Your faithfulness<BR/>On the mountains<BR/>Through the valleys<BR/>Your love will be my peace<BR/>And I will sing of Your love for me<BR/><BR/>I will rise up and worship You<BR/>Worship You<BR/>I will rise up and worship You<BR/>Worship You<BR/>I will rise up and worship You<BR/>Worship You<BR/><BR/>(Copyright 1997 Doulos Publishing)<BR/><BR/>Goodnight my sister-in-heart. Take care to let go and let God have His healing way with Connor. Yes, this is easier said than done. But, we both know that He did not make a mistake when He formed Connor in your womb. <BR/><BR/>I love you! Please give Randy and Connor my love, too.<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/><BR/>Connor's Auntie HeatherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23896405.post-1144127877057628802006-04-03T22:17:00.000-07:002006-04-03T22:17:00.000-07:00Dear Lori,Thank you so much for calling and being ...Dear Lori,<BR/>Thank you so much for calling and being so honest in telling me about today. You and Connor and Randy are so much in our prayers and we know you know that without even saying a word. <BR/><BR/>Earlier today a verse kept going through my mind and now I understand why...it's from Psalms46:10 Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with(Connor and you and Randy) The God of Jacob is our stronghold. <BR/><BR/>Lori we too need to totally trust the Lord for each of you. You have said so many things that are so true and honest. Sometimes I wish you were still a little girl when we would lay in bed late at night and solve so many problems, but now you are a mama and God is holding you and helping you to see that you need to trust Him and just like your friend Heather said God loves Connor so much more than we could ever think.<BR/><BR/>God's word brings so much comfort and there were two other verses that I wanted to tell you one from Deuteronomy 33:(last part of verse 25)as your day so shall your strength, your rest and security, be.(amplified) oh we pray that for each of you. Also Deut.33:12 Let the beloved of the Lord rest secure in Him, for He shields him all day long, and the one the Lord loves rests between His shoulders. Oh Lori isn't that a wonderful picture? Think of those verses when you go to bed and know that God is holding Connor and you and Randy in His hands, like it says too underneath are the everlasting arms.<BR/><BR/>Lori no matter how old your children get you always feel like you're tucking them into bed the only thing that's different is we tuck them in with prayer.<BR/><BR/>We pray for God's presence to fill Connor's room and to be close to the nurses as they care for him through the night.<BR/><BR/>WE love you Dad and Mom XOXOXOXOXOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23896405.post-1144122582125348072006-04-03T20:49:00.000-07:002006-04-03T20:49:00.000-07:00My dear Lori,So many of our conversations are comi...My dear Lori,<BR/>So many of our conversations are coming back to my mind. How hard it is to release our little precious ones to anyone else, even God. Surely, we as mommy know the best way to calm them and care for them, or so we think. I so often have to remember that God created my little ones and he cares for them better than I ever could dream of. He knows their innermost being in a way that I never will. <BR/><BR/>I remember one conversation we had when I shared something with you. A struggle I had myself with one of my little ones. What I found in that situation was that I struggled and tormented until one day I finally RELEASED my little one to God. TOTALLY released! God, whatever you want with my little one's life, you do it. I can't describe the peace that came after that. Suddenly the struggle and torment ceased. Just confidence in God remained.<BR/><BR/>It is so hard, but release. One song says, "What hights of love, what depths of peace, when storms are calmed, when strivings cease."<BR/><BR/>I will be praying that that peace of God floods over you as you rest this evening. Truly floods your heart and soul. When alarms go off, look to God. <BR/><BR/>I will pray that the doctors will have the wisdom that comes from God alone in treating little Connor. I will pray that Connor rests in perfect peace, all on his own.<BR/><BR/>I will pray for strength for the two of you as you prepare for Randy's upcoming trip. <BR/><BR/>I will pray for Randy's strength and safe return as well.<BR/><BR/>I love you all. And remember, though it is hard to imagine, God loves little Connor so much more than even you could ever imagine loving him. Trust Him.<BR/><BR/>Heather B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
