Thread: Some prayers, please

Tweet

Hi there, this is Lamin8r's wife Lynda. First off, we're sitting here at home in front of this computer with huge wide grins of happiness that you got your little girls home with you. Our church, a little Baptist church in New Plymouth has been praying for this whole thing for a few days now, and we're just praising God that He answers prayer so completely. We're going to go to church tomorrow morning and tell them. Will continue to keep praying until the i's are dotted and the t's crossed, and they are back to full, happy, health. And you both can look forward to raising the next generation. A labour of love, huh?

Thank you Lynda, and thank everyone at your church, too!!!! It has been a labor of love, and worth every minute of it! The real healing can began now.

We had a lot of "moments" during the last week, but a couple last night when we had both girls safely with us at a motel in Iowa City really brought up evidence of what condition and how much healing time it's going to take.... Lisha, the older girl, was sitting on Grandma's lap last night and asked Grandma if she had food in her house. Grandma assured her she had food, the Lisha asked what Grandma was going to do when the food was gone and Grandma of course told her she'd go to the store and get more.....Then Lisha asked if this meant here and "Sissy" would get to eat every day!!!!! Kind of a real eye opener on just how tough these two little angels have had things when they're not even sure there is going to be food for them to eat....and on the way home one of our stops was at McDonalds (of course) for some lunch. Lisha sat across the table from Lexie when we were eating and her first question was if all this food (Cheeseburger, fries, and milk) was just for her....and could she eat it all now or did she have to save some of it for tomorrow!!!! A child not yet 3 years old should never have to worry about when their next meal is coming!!!!

I am catching up on this & just read the above.
I am sitting here w/tears running down my face thinking "My God what is wrong w/those people".
NO CHILD should ever have to worry about that...
Dave, YOU & your WIFE are what we call HERO's.
Thank you for taking those grandkid's of yours to a much better place to live & grow up at...joe
