How do you ever begin to prepare for your daughter's heart surgery? We begin with prayer. Prayer for her healing, prayer for her doctors and surgeons, and prayer for our peace in the journey. Then we asked our church and families to pray along with us. Now we are just 48 hours away and are praying time slows down and passes quickly.
Yesterday our church blessed us with a huge care package. We can never begin to say thank you enough for all the cards, snacks, books, stufties, games, and STICKERS! Yes, Jadelyn loves stickers! =) It is an overwhelming encouragement as we prepare for the days where time passes slowly to know that there are so many people praying and standing in the gap for us. We admit we are physically and emotionally stretched already, but we are doing ok. God is faithful and He has brought us this far and will carry us through to the completion of His plan for His honor and glory. It has always been His story.
Thank you all again for your prayers and gifts of encouragement. We carry all of you in our hearts.
We don't know Jadelyn's exact surgery time yet. We will find out tomorrow (Tuesday the 31st) before 5pm. We will attempt to post around then and let you know a more exact schedule.
We have heard many songs and stories of encouragement. Today, we are trying to let go of our desire for control and let the God of the universe hold our hearts.
