A prayer from Mike (John's nephew)

Lord, help us to know today that this life is fleeting and that this place is not our home. Thank you for blessing us with more time with John. Help us to love like he loves, to serve like Mary serves. Help us to see the opportunities today to love those around us, even when we are far away from our family. Please bless and protect John, Mary, and Peggy on their long journey home. Thank you for what you have done in Mexico by the power of your blood - by the scars that you endured we can be healed. We know that John still has a long road, but thank you for our extended visit. Thank you for the living example of Hebrews 10:23 and help us all to hold unswervingly today and tomorrow and until you come to take us to our real home. We love you and pray these things in the matchless name of Jesus, Amen.

Love to all y'all. I'm thankful for you and the reminder that even though we can't all be together, we will all be together soon for eternity and what a day that will be.
Soon,
Mike


I spoke with Dad yesterday and he sounded tired... We are praising the Lord he is home with us but we can also see he has a LONG road to recovery. He asked me to let everyone know that he wants to see people and visit, but he also needs a lot of time during the day to rest and be with Mom, he wanted me to ask you to give a call if you want to come visit. This will give more one on one time with him and mom, and allow him to schedule in some "rest" time as well. They are both so grateful for your prayers, love support and encouragement... KEEP IT UP :) Love to everyone,
 Heather (for us all)
