It's so great to be part of such a wonderful family of faith!
We were overwhelmed by the response of so many of you who sent e-mails or called during the past 24 hours after surgery. We realize that many others joined with us in prayer today for Christina as well. Thank you so much! The surgery was very successful and the doctor was able to repair the elbow without using a prothesis. There seems to be no nerve damage which is also a big blessing. The greatest concern at this point is that the wound is still not totally free of foreign particles which could cause infection. Wednesday the doctor will clean the wound again. Christina is in pain and weary, but she is doing just fine and hopes to have another good night of sleep. We realize God's powerful healing hand in this whole process and want to honor Him as the Giver and Preserver of life, the One who heals our wounds and comforts our hearts. To Him be the glory! Let's continue to run to Him for strength and help in time of trouble. Keep praying!
"Glorify the LORD with me;
let us exalt his name together.
I sought the LORD, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant...
O taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him." Ps. 34:3-5,8
Thankful for you and thankful for God's faithfulness,
Paul and Becky
P.S. Christina's husband is finishing his medical residency in orthopedic surgery this month in two of the best hospitals in our state. One of his trusted, capable instructors performed the surgery.
