Many of you have been checking back and waiting to hear how Brad is doing. Thanks for your faithfulness.
The news I have is not what we were hoping for. But I want to remind you God is our Creator. He is in control and
He knows exactly what He wants to do. And we trust Him.
      
      The nodule on the lung is now just part of the problem. They found another tumor in Brad's abdomen the
size of a half dollar. Our next step is to have a ct-scan guided biopsy to see which kind of cancer it may be. After
which they will decide on what treatment, whether surgery to remove or chemo-therapy.

      How can you help us.... continue to keep your eyes on Jesus. Draw nearer to Him everyday. We all have
storms in our lives. Many of us feel like we may drown at any moment. Put your arms around each other and
bear each others burdens. I can not explain it but when we take our eyes off of our own heartaches and we help
a brother with his, our weighted hearts grow lighter. Pray, pray without ceasing. Ohhh, don't pray just for healing
of Brad's body, pray that Brad will grow still closer to the soul of God. This is the ultimate healing. The comfort of
our being. Indeed it is what God designed us to be, companions of His heart.

      Well, praise the Lord. I love Him so much. How amazing, my blessed Redeemer. He bought me back from the
land fill of waste destined to hell. I stood on the selling block ugly and unlovable with a wretched horrible heart.
He saw a beautiful thing when we looked past my hurts. He bought me, gave me new birth, I'm no longer the
same. I am a lovely child and I have a new name. I'm Christlike. Praise God.
