Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare. Psalm 40:5
A month ago Hu checked into the hospital for his surgery which was supposed to be a 3-4 day stay. Now he is in rehab. Today he commented, "I should be progressing faster than this". I reminded him how far he has come but I'm sure it is hard to comprehend when he feels so weak.
This morning an extended family member sent me an email and in closing said "I believe you're still there for somebody". That was a thought I hadn't considered. We look at the medical steps it will take for Hu to be released but it is easy to forget about the plan that God has for his release. Pray for us to have patience and be faithful in sharing with those that are part of God's plan.
Tomorrow Hu has a very light day in rehab with only one hour of physical therapy. Of course, in each session he is given plenty of "homework" to keep him busy over the weekend. Pray with us that his body will continue to be strengthened. We know why we are here--this is a part of the tapestry that God is weaving in our lives--we see all the difficulties (strings) but he sees the finished product.
Hu and Sherril, Thank you for the updates, we are with you in prayer every day. I praise the Lord for the great progress Hu is making. Before you know it we'll be hiking in the Smoky Mountains again! God bless you.
