Hey Jay:
We will be sending out a letter that is primarily for our mission trip. The information is pretty general so I will respond to your question about Sharon's status more specifically. As you know we arrived in Colorado Springs August 15th. Sharon drove one of the cars up here; she walked into school on her own up the stairs into class, and had very little discernable speech problems. At this point march 6th she is unable to walk on her own whatsoever, her speech is very difficult to understand, and she needs assistance with many of the most basic needs. All that said her spirit is strong and determined.
These are the facts------but facts are funny things. Moses sent twelve spies into the land that God promised them. They came back and 10 of the spies reported that there were giants in the land, high fortifications, and a strong people. Two of the spies (Joshua and Caleb) said, "We are well able lets go take possession." The 10 spies were not fabricating what they saw. It was fact what they reported. The other 2 rested on the word they received---------they believed what God told them.
We are standing on the Word and what God says He has already accomplished. Everyday is a new challenge, so we take each day on as it comes but we will not give in, complain or grumble. WE CHOOSE LIFE.
When I look at Sharon I think of what 1 Corth 13:7 says
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
