Thanksgiving 2011


Dear Blake,
Tonight I spent the night in prayer with and for you...and being very thankful for friends who have shared in this moment with faithful intercession...through the known and the unknown we take nothing for granted.
As much as we think we want to know the end from the beginning, I am thankful that God gives us our "daily bread"...if we really knew where the day would take us, I think I would have trouble starting the day.
I am thankful for the opportunity to spend the night with my precious Blake singing lullabyes and holding your hand while the clock ticks away and yesterday becomes today...in spite of the surroundings, there is no other way I would rather spend the night ♥
I am thankful for medical professionals, who never give up!...and in spite of the challenges, keep giving full measures of care.
I am thankful for family that lends understanding and compassion to each other...in joy and in sorrow.
I am thankful for faithful intercessors who join with us through the known and the unknown, the anticipated and the unexpected. As I hold your hand tonight, I know there are hands of warriors who are holding my hand.  Without the strength upholding me I would surely crumble into a puddle.  When we don't know how to pray...how comforting to know that God is already there.
Love and prayers bring comfort and restoration, and for that I am especially thankful this earliest of Thanksgiving mornings.

I love you tons and bunches! ♥
