Praise God for:
*taking us through two full weeks of treatments
*for Aaron not having lost any weight yet
*for Aaron being still being able to eat
*for being faithful
*for supplying our daily needs
Pray for:
*the sores on Aaron's tongue; that they would heal and the pain would subside
*protection in Aaron's mouth; that he wouldn't get any more sores or infections
*strength of spirit, mind, and body
*that Aaron would be able to swallow well enough, so he won't require a feeding tube
*protection of his teeth, gums, and salivary gland
*that the treatments are successful
*that God would be glorified and that we would learn all that He would have us learn in this trial
Thank you for your constant love, support, and prayers.

Lamentations3:22-26
Through the LORD'S mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is YOUR faithfulness. "The LORD is my portion," says my soul, therefore I hope in Him!" The LORD is good to those who wait for HIM, to the soul who seeks Him . It is good that one whould hope and wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
Psalm 23
The Lord is my Shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table for me in the
presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life;
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table for me in the
presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall
follow me all the days of my life;
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the king of Creation!
O my soul praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation!
All ye who hear, now to His temple draw near;
join me in glad adoration!
Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things so wondrously reigneth.
Shelters me under His wings, yea so gently sustaineth.
Hast thou not seen, how all thy longings have been
granted in what HE ordaineth?
Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee.
Surely His goodness and mercy doth daily attend thee.
Ponder anew, what the Almighty can do, if with His love He befriend thee.
Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him!
All that hath life and breath come now with praises
before Him.
Let the Amen, sound from His people again, gladly forever adore Him!!
joy
"The difference between shallow happiness and a deep sustaining joy is sorrow. Happiness lives where sorrow is not. When sorrow arrives, happiness dies. It can't stand pain. Joy, on the other hand, rises from sorrow and therefore can withstand all grief. Joy, by the grace of God, is the transfiguration of suffering into endurance, and of endurance into character, and of character into hope... and the hope that has become our joy does not(as happiness must for those who depend on it) disappoint us." Walter Wangrin
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance." James 1:2-3
"I am greatly encouraged; in all our troubles my joy knows no bounds." 2 Cor 7:4

I will pray for all that you ask. Having your mouth, especially the tongue, out of commission is a very trying situation, I have some experience with that. I am proof that you can get through it though and Aaron, I know you have the courage and faith.

I am praying for you.... Praying and believing in God for your good health to be restored. Hallelujah that you have been able to eat. Joy had asked me to pray about that in the beginning, and it is exciting to hear that prayer is answered I will con't to lift you up in my prayers.
