Need Prayer
Please pray for the Sileno family. (They are in my links column below) Johnny will be undergoing another tumor resection surgery this Monday (the 4th). Pray for the surgeon, Dr. Boop, other doctors and nurses, for a total resection, pray for no side affects, and for quick healing. Pray for Dr. Merchant, Ivee and Johnny's Radiation Oncologist. Pray that he knows which course of action they will need to take to help Johnny the best way possible. Pray for Johnny's mom and dad, Jennine and John. This is a hard, scary, and stressful time. It is so hard when your baby has to go through this. Pray for God to work a Miracle in their lives!!!!!

"Look out for me oh muddy water"
I felt like Huck and Jim fighting the mighty waters of the Mississippi. Last night I tried battling and dodging the flood waters of Atmore. After about 20 minutes of trying to find a way out of the town, I finally had to retreat back to my parents home. I had to concede the fight and spend the night! After a not so great night of sleep thanks to sleeping with my 3 year old, the chime clock going off every hour, and my niece waking me up ever so often, I just got up at 5 am and the kids and I headed home. Gratefully, we hit no other waters. The flood had receded well over night. Ethan made a comment last night, "Didn't God promise not to flood us again?" I reminded him that didn't mean that floods wouldn't happen, just that he would not destroy the entire earth by flood! Not sure if his 10 year old mind wrapped around that one! (By the way, the title of my blog is from one of my favorite musicals "Big River.")
All the kids are doing well. Ethan turns 10 this Thursday. Happy birthday to my baby boy! Friday is G.I.F.T day! The day we celebrate "God Is Faithful and True." The 3rd anniversary of the day Ivee fell, and God gave us a 2nd chance at life with her, and opened our eyes to a new understanding of who He is and a new appreciation of life with those we love. It is much easier to witness to His faithfulness when you have walked the road that others have traveled. The roads may be different, but you can look at someone and honestly say..."I've been there!"
The kids are looking forward to Christmas break. Ivee is still making small strides and still slowly moving forward!
May we all remember the reason for this time of year. God reached down to man through a tiny babe, and through Jesus Christ bridged the gap between light and darkness! I pray that others will be touched by the light this coming year. If you haven't already, think and pray about what you would do and give this year to reach the world with the Love of Christ! Let us live out the great commission this year!!!!
