Dave and Irene,
I have been out of the loop for awhile. No computer on a nice beach vacation with family. Devin read me yessterday’ e-mail. We were rejoicing with you. Each day has been towards healing. We will continue to lift you and your family up in prayer. We continue to pray for the nausea to go away and for the kidney’s to wake up. Thank you for the great example of being a FDF.
Love,
The Eckhardt’s
Dias Family,
Looking through your website I was so encouraged by the memories of childhood friends and the faithfulness of our Father in Heaven.
“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” Eph. 3: 14-19
My heart and prayers are with you during this time.
Love, Laura Wayne
Irene and Dave, I have been keeping up with your journey and have been inspired and instructed by your faith! I share with you something that has sustained me … through both the “crashing waves” times and the “buzzing insect worry” times.
Multi-colored trials … Multi-colored grace!
He has grace for every trial, strength for every weakness,
joy for every sorrow, and He never runs out!
His grace is great enough to meet the great things …
The crashing waves that overwhelm the soul,
The roaring winds that leave us stunned and breathless,
The sudden storms beyond our life’s control.
His grace is great enough to meet the small things ..
The little pin-prick troubles that annoy,
“Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” -Lamentations 3:22-23
