Heartfelt Thanks

I am truly humbled by the amazing response to my request for prayers for my son, Luke. I've heard from unknown bloggers, occasional commenter's and the regular ladies who comment. Other bloggers have posted about it on their blogs, while others have their prayer warriors and their churches praying for him, and in all of this I know that my precious son has been lifted up into the very throne room of God. I have felt the loving arms of Jesus wrapped around me, comforting me, and the peace that surpasses all understanding has engulfed me. I know that my God is much bigger than any medical problem known to mankind, and I'm trusting Him for His will in this situation. Please accept this as my heartfelt thanks to you all. Normally I would respond to each and every one of you precious ladies and warriors, but I find at this particular time, I'm just far too emotional and there aren't the words to express my gratitude to you.

As soon as I hear from Jenna I'll keep you updated.

Again thank you and may the Lord bless each and every one of you.

In His Amazing Love

Linda

Very thankful to hear that you have had so much prayer support. Do not think of replying individually, it's not expected. Continuing to pray.

A Momma's love is as strong and fierce as God's love for all of us. I'm praying that Luke recovers quickly and that you find all the strength and comfort you need.
