The Ox Moves Slow, but the Earth Is Patient (that's not from the Bible)

Yesterday was a very good day!  Harriet was able to come to church and be there for most of the service.  It was very emotional.  I would like to be totally frank with you.  Her strength is low, she can only eat small amounts and then she runs out of energy.  She still has a long ways to go, but we can see the progress.  There were times in the past months when she could not drink a glass of water.  She could only take tiny sips and that was it.  Now things are more normal.

She wanted to thank everybody for praying for her and for all the people that came on Tuesday evenings for prayer meeting that interceded upon her behalf.  But when she started to talk, it was well very emotional.  When we were singing the worship songs, she just started to cry and couldn't stop.  There were tears of joy and thanksgiving not tears of  sadness.  I put my arm around her and just held  and comforted her, until it subsided.  I know that she will get stronger over the following months but during this time of healing, she will be very fragile.

Thank you so much for your continued loving support and prayers.

Maranatha,
Frank and Harriet
