Gratitude

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to each of you who have prayed for us over the past three weeks. It has been a huge blessing to know that you have been faithful in your prayers for us. Thank you just doesn’t seem to be enough for all you’ve done. Your love helped get us through one of the darkest times we have ever faced. We love each of you and appreciate you more than our words could ever say. We are most grateful to our Savior and Lord for the miraculous work he has done and is doing in our family. Christy is getting stronger every day and Chris is still hurting but is able to do a little more each day. We couldn’t possibly shout our praises loud enough to Him who is our strength and source of life.

We would love to know who you are. If you prayed for us please comment and let us know who you are, where you’re from and how you know us (or if you know someone who knows one of us). Also, if your church prayed for us we would like to know who they are as well. We are all one big family and we would love to know exactly how to thank our Father for his faithful.

Humbled,
Julie

My church (Northview Baptist), sunday school class and I prayed for you. Julie, yesterday I even requested prayer for you specifically. Heaven knows you are the glue that holds it all together.
Love,
Melanie

I am so thankful that prayers have been answered in the way they have. Seems your family will be getting back to normal.

You and family remain on the prayer list for my Sunday School class at Northview and our church has been praying too, Northview.

This whole thing has been a faith lifting experience for all.

Praise be to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ for His wonderful gifts!

Thank you for the faith you all have shown which is a blessing to to us all.

Love,

Barbara H.

Julie - I have been praying, too, but did not know about Chris's situation until just now. I was in NC visiting Heather. Please know we love you and we, too, rejoice with God's work in your lives. Anything we can do to help we would be there in a minute!
