Blessed April 6, 2020

From Elda…

Good morning my family and friends. I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your support and encouragement the past few weeks. It truly cannot be said how grateful Phil and I are for your love and prayers. Please continue to pray…Phil was hospitalized on Friday night and now requires 24/7 medical attention.

We are blessed to have been able to consult with doctors at the renowned MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. Truly God did a miracle in getting Phil here. His doctor feels confident with his proton radiation and chemotherapy treatments. There have been extra precautions with his treatments because of  COVID-19 pandemic and no visitors are allowed into the hospital. Through faith I can rely that he is not alone…thank you Jesus!  I am so grateful! God has given us more than we can imagine, and I prayerfully look forward to gradually seeing this disease mend.

I have learned through these difficult times what it means to be truly blessed…the Bible always assures us that God is with us. He is our comforter; He is our healer. He is our physician; He is our provider! I can rely that He knows better than I do. I must admit that some days have been painful yet, my heart has been at rest that this is all God’s plan.

Again, thank you for the heartfelt prayers on Phil’s behalf. It has brought a smile on his face, hope to his heart, and given us both more reasons to give thanks to our Savior for His grace and faithfulness in our lives.
