Good things to cherish
"I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord." Psalm 122:1
My apologies for not posting for a few days. In this case, no news is good news! Malcom is enjoying a "reprieve" between chemo treatments feeling more like his old self at times. It's been great spending time the past few days with Karen and Willy Yee. It was an extra special blessing to be able to take them with us to the house of the Lord today. So many good things to cherish: hearing their testimony thanking the Lord for sending missionaries to Taiwan, singing a duet with Karen using both Chinese and English, being fed from the Word of God in 3 services throughout the day, a great song service in the pm service and just being with our church family again.
How blessed we are to have the Lord...our shield, our refuge, our strong tower, our source of strength, our Rock in the storms of life.
In case you have wondered, Malcom still has his hair (the chemo hasn't taken that away yet), the mouth sores are gone (thanks for the prayers!) and he weighs about 138 lbs. We'll try to find a way to post some pictures this week.

CF & Malcom,
It is a great blessing to hear you have had some good days with friends and church family. We were blessed today too. I will add some prayers about weight to the list. The wonderful supplements have to help.
love ya

How wonderful to see this good report !! And I am so glad you could share your (home) church with your friends from Taiwan. God is Good ---all the time.
Lovingly

A friend reminded me today that it is not my faith that makes a miracle possible. She stated, "God wants you to have faith and know that He is able to perform that miracle that you want for your Dad, but it is important that you also know that it is His choice." Praise God it is not my faith that makes if possible as it would not be enough! In the past year my faith has changed from blind belief to that of one with first hand knowledge that even when we don't understand His choices, God is still good!
