Another day, much the same as the last two, has come to a close. Robert spent the day in various degrees of pain and intense discomfort. He is frustrated and exhausted. This healing thing is a slow process, with little evidence of change in the past several days. Maybe this is an example of faith being the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. In any case, it's becoming quite the experience of waiting on God, and as I sit bedside watching Robert suffer, unable to do anything but get him a glass of water, or adjust his feet a little, I have to keep giving Robert over to God, trusting Him to take care of our/His son, and to bring relief at last. I'm thankful for the peace I received from Him throughout this day. Thanks to everyone who was praying today. Thank God for how far He's brought Robert, and keep persisting in prayer for his complete healing.

Hi Chris,
When you have time, check your email - I'm thinking of coming to be with you for a couple of days . . . if that would be good.

Dear Lavigne family,
You are all in our prayers continually. As I prayed for Rob during work today God brought Matt 10:29-31 to mind. Words seem so trite at a time like this but we love you Rob (and family). You are in our hearts, our minds and our prayers. God bless,

Hi Chris and Robert,
I'm praying for you many, many times throughout the day. May just the knowledge that a ton of people are praying for you, uplift you today.
Knocking with both fists,

Dear Chris and Robert
We'll be cruising through this weekend, would you mind posting his bed location so we can find him?

Words can say so much and yet so little...at times like this it is hard to find the right words. So, please know we are keeping all of you uplifted with prayer.
Fondest regards,
Fred & Judy
