“You thrill me Lord with all you have done for me! I sing for joy because of what you have done” Psalm 92:4
I wrote on August 18 while reading this Psalm with Andy that we should not fear but be thrilled for all God has coordinated. Our fears or concerns or the small trials shouldn’t get in the way from the glory of God that should be celebrated!
His mercy is just pouring in like a waterfall the last three days. Found the mini fun opportunity Mac and his siblings have been able to take part of. To watching him bloom and blossom and grow as God’s word commands. You will grow in wisdom and stature and favor with God and man Luke 2:52 Mac’s hemoglobin is needing some prayers with the immuno drug drugs to keep his kidney happy in his body. His oxygenation is showing on labs that it needs support so he’s going to get a red blood cell transfusion this afternoon for a boost.. please pray that he is healthy and thrives from it. If he responds well, they and we have hopes to go home tomorrow<\/p>\n\n\n\n

August 29, 2025 (part 1)
Mac got to be on the TV show yesterday, which was such a thrill two weeks after\u00a0surgery, with his brother and sister! We went for a long walk today; no attachments! Praise!
And when we got done with our long walk, we happen to run into our surgeon doctor, Dr Armando. I wish I would’ve had my camera out sooner, but the moment was pretty divine. Mac ran over to him arms open and gave him a big hug.. Dr Armando had tears. God is so good. We think back to this journey and how doors were shut. We are so grateful now because God had this in store for us and it was what He wanted for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isaiah 45:2 “I will go before you and make the rough places smooth”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We trust that God has gone before us and prepared the person that donated it graciously and its procurement is all to God’s glory
mark 16:18
18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once this is complete, and it is successful, we will be discharged to go home. Thank you Lord for paving the way before us<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
