Good news today
"Then your light shall break forth like the morning, your healing shall spring forth speedily." Isaiah 58:8

The scripture I chose was in a get-well card Malcom received today. It seemed appropriate to use it for our encouragement from God's Word as the morning began with him having a normal temperature! With the dawn of a new day, we stedfastly look for healing from the Lord.

There were several bits of good news: CEA count is lower (this is the "tumor" marker); white blood cell count isn't too high; he has a good appetite and the CT scan shows a decrease in the abdominal fluid. Today he started his 2nd round of chemotherapy. If all goes well, he should be able to go home tomorrow and continue it there as it takes about 48 hours.

I am in awe of the number of lives the Lord is allowing us to "touch" through this experience. Please pray that God will use me and use Malcom to minister to others who are hurting, that we may point them to the Lord.

Dear Malcom and Carol,

I just want to let you know what an encouragement it has been watching in compete awe how you have remained faithful in the most challenging time in your lives. You may never know how many lives your testimony has affected, but I want you to know it has affected mine. Too often we can look at the most trivial things in our lives and question where God is in the midst of them. I marvel at how the two of you have remained faithful in the midst of perhaps the most challenging time in your lives. Thank you for your testimony. God is truly using you both.
