You Are The Hands & Feet of Jesus

So many people have supported us in such big ways: Groceries, meals, cleaning, prayer, sweet blog comments (we cherish then all), holding baby so mom and dad can sleep! Our hearts has been so touched by how our friends, family and even people we don’t know have truly helped carry this burden with us through their empathy and compassion. Feeling a friend cry with you brings healing to your soul.

Hebrews 13:3

Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.

This verse has never felt more real to us. You have all walked as though you are in this trial with us. It’s so comforting.

We feel more excited to serve others now because we understand how much it can really mean to someone. I also feel a new conviction to follow through when I say, “I’ll pray for you.”

We have so many praises, including that we’re back in diaper mode! Woohoo! We got the okay to remove the surgical dressings, which left room to put on a diaper and tape the edges to his back with surgical tape. This means we can lay him down to sleep!! It’s amazing how much brighter the world feels after some good sleep! Thank you for showing us the hands and feet if Jesus. We love you.

Hebrews 13:16

Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
