I just spoke to my mother.
  My dad has been on the verge of death several times the last couple of days.
  His lungs have filled with fluid, and he has struggled to breathe.
  My mother is convinced he would be dead, if it were not for all the prayers, so THANK YOU!!

I was able to speak with my father just now, he will be in the hospital for several more days, he was in to much pain to continue talking, so we had to say good-bye.
  I did not want to hang up; I wanted to crawl through the phone and sit by his side and hold his hand.
 

I cook when I get nervous, so my family is eating well, I however have lost my appetite altogether.  My mother simply reminded me that they fully support what we are doing, and feel that it is important.  I am glad to have their support, I feel bad enough not being there.

I have faith that my dad will be completely restored, but I hate the pain in his voice….

My mother’s only request is continued prayer coverage, we have not stopped of course, and obviously you have not either.

Thank you for your prayer, love and support of my parents, and my family, all the emails oozing the love from your hearts , they are life to us all.

  2. Lisa, your family is in our prayers. Be assured that the enemy is working to distract you from your mission, but that the victory is the Lord’s! We are praying for restoration for your dad and for God’s perfect peace for you and your family!

  3. Lisa, your family are safe in His hands, just like mine are, and even when the devil tries to wack us with sickness and disease, know this, OUR GOD IS BIGGER AND BETTER, AND MORE GLORIOUS THAN ANYTHING OR ANYBODY, SO JUST HANG IN THERE AND KNOW THAT GOD LOVES YOU ENOUGH TO DO THE RIGHT THING BY YOU.
    Love you!

  4. We’re with you guys too… I remember the longing to just be at home holding my family in the hard times… but God’s purposes are perfect like you know. May Africa be even more of a blessing to you right now as you miss home… We’re praying for your dad!!
