2/9/12 Night Post: *some therapy sessions were good some not so good today...he is defianately getting stronger *gave him a REAL bath today..he smiled and splashed a little...I got to give him the bath but the OT therapist helped for the first one...he loved the bath(thts a huge deal since 2 other attempts at the sanford hospital he screamed the whole time) till i had to wash his hair and dry him off **Prayer targets** the feeding tube drives Liam crazy...please prayer for him to do well during speech therapy so we can get him eating food and get that tube out! * pray for him to stay calm and maybe even enjoy physical therapy * Pray for healing of the brain and for his eyes to see and ears to hear. * Liam keeps trying to talk but u cant make out the words he is saying...please pray that he can communicate with us and talk....JESUS: I'm sorry for the times I let my eyes quit looking to you and just looked at the situation...I choose to FIX my eyes on you and continue to trust you. I know the situation is hars but I also know that you are a BIG GOD who can do big things....Your word says "ask and you shall recieve" we are asking again for a complete healing for our sweet boy...Thank you Jesus!
Exodus 14. So there you are a life you are use to and you are resigned to the fact that life isnt going to change. Circumstances change and you end up in the desert between an ocean and 600 chariots that are coming to kill you. How does this happen? What now?
Well Exodus 14:14 says to let God fight for us! And God sure did, he parted the Red Sea!
When we have nowhere to turn, life is over and it is impossible. Let God fight for us! This has helped tonight because we have been feeling discouraged. We have to let God FIGHT for us. He has promised to be there for us! In Romans 8:26 the Lord says the Holy Spirit prays and groans for us when we are so weak that we don't know what to pray about!
Liam had an okay day of therapy. It is tough to see him crying and scared. I choose right know to let God fight for us, lord please let me feel you shine!
Please keep praying. Never ever give up!
Romans 4:1-8, 5:8/Psalms 32:1-6. So, you don't want to try this God thing because you have known Christians who were two faced. They said they where Christians but didn't act like it all the time. Well, guess what Christians sin. If they say they don't they are liars!
David was a man after Gods own heart and he did some bad things. Peter a man that walked with Jesus denied him! Both were forgiven and restored! The thing is we need to understand that forgiveness is for EVERYONE, now the longer your a Christian I would hope you can cut out some of the crap out of your life ( includes me). But it isn't a lightswitch. Now this isn't a free for all to be a dirt ball and just say you're a Christian, this needs to be a change in your heart.
2/8/12 Updates:
Read Romans 8:12-17 it refers to the holy spirit helping us with sin. Please remember only Jesus was perfect. No else can be without the forgiveness and redemption of God!
We moved to the rehab hospital today! Liam did awesome. My buddy laid on my chest for awhile today and he didn't want to move! I love him so much. He truly is a gift from God. We are seeing progress everyday!
Please pray for Liam's eyes and ears! He is still deaf and blind but I truly don't think God is done! Keep praying friends, God is real.
Night Update: Awesome day today...despite that, I felt attacked again (spiritually) like the devil wanted me to focus on doubt....rebuking that in the name of Jesus! I choose to look to Jesus like I have been...and give HIM praise for all he's done and will do...as a friend reminded me in a prayer for me today "HE will finish the good works he started!" amen! soooo....Here's all the good God did today and we give HIM the glory:) soo thankful: *I sat in a wheel chair and they put Liam in my lap as we made our way out of Sanfords childrens hospital to our car...Liam was soo comfortable with me holding him it was awesome:) *Casey took Liam from me and put him in the carseat...Liam didnt cry one bit...he sat peacefully in his seat the whole way to the rehab hospital (I sat in the back and rubbed his head:) *Best part yet...casey got him out of the car and held Liam like we used to-against his chest- Liam HELD onto him so Casey sat in a chair in Liams new room and just held him for awhile like that...melt my heart:) *they did a lot of physical therapy evaluations and asked a lot of questions to start to formulate a plan for therapy for Liam...the therapy team seemed like they will do a great job! soooo many other good moments today that if i shared them all this would be too long of a post (longer than usual anyway;) Prayer targets: Please pray for Liam to be able to see and hear so that he can see and hear his mommy and daddy (for other reasons too of course:), pray for wisdom for the nurses, doctors, and therapists....Please continue to stand with us in belief and prayer for a complete healing for our Liam! We thank You Jesus for
today...and for all you are doing and going to do!! What a mighty God we serve:)
We were praying for all of you last night at our bible study, and someone mentioned something that I wanted to share. Not only is God with you, to comfort you, to heal your son, but He is WITH Liam. Liam may not be able to see or hear right now, but he can hear God's whisper and see His face...God will not leave him and will give him comfort. We will be in continual prayer for you all. To God be the glory, Kim
