The Surgery really needs to happen…pray it will be possible

“They do not compromise with evil, and they walk only in his paths.” Psalm 119:3

It is 4:00 a.m. and we are headed to the hospital. Dax is sleeping and has no clue what he is about to go through. Part of me is relieved by that and the other part of me finds it kind of cruel.

Right now I am full of emotion because I know how important this surgery is, and how BADLY it needs to happen today! All I know is that right now I am praying like crazy that the surgery does NOT get postponed because of how sick Dax is.  Please pray that as well! He really needs this to happen!

I am tired, Garrett is tired, and Avery, Praise God, is still sleeping at our precious friend’s house. That is a relief but I do hate being away from Him.

I am thankful that my precious daddy drove 9 hours last night to be here with us and help me since Garrett has to leave to go back to Jasper and work. Pray for him it is hard for him to leave us, especially with all of this going on.

Oh, praise God for my parents who have always dropped everything to be there when we needed them. I am so thankful, I am so thankful, because honestly I am so worn out, I need help, and who better than your mommy and daddy.

God is in control, plus it is Valentine’s Day today and to know that I am going to get to spend it with the five most precious men in my life (Jesus, G, Avery, Dax, and my Daddy) makes me so happy.

Jesus as we head down the road to the hospital I ask for Your hand of protection to be upon us as we travel. I ask that You prepare the hands, hearts, and minds of the doctors, nurses, and everyone else who will be involved in Dax's surgery. Lord I ask above that, come down and be them. May Your hands literally and visibly be upon Dax. I ask for there to be answers, I ask for a quick surgery, and I ask for quick healing. Jesus You know the importance and need for this surgery, so please let it be possible. Jesus I love You, I trust You, and I ask that You walk before us. Jesus be among us every step, every minute, and in every decision. Jesus I just want You to receive all the honor and glory through every stage of this. Amen
