Dear All,
Sorry to keep bombarding you with prayer requests-- if you;d like to be taken off our list please let me know--, but as we truly believe that prayer support is effective and one of the most critical factors in keepign us going, I feel like we need to keep honestly sharing the needs...
Jesse's kidney pain is almost completely gone, but as the kidney pain left, he was hit with systemic muscle and joint pain-- the same severe intensity as the kidney pain, but all over. It's as if he's getting a really bad case of the flu, the kind that keeps you from going to work because you ache all over, but the flu symptoms never develop and the muscle pain never goes away. He has actually been knocked out worse by this than by the kidney stones. He'll see a doctor this week, but we're not sure who or where, and with his pain this general and diagnostics in Burundi so weak it's going to be hard to get a good answer about what this might be or how to fix it. We're praying that if it's the Lord's will He would just take it away.
The kids are starting to feel the strain of having two parents who aren't at their best physically right now, so the whole family is struggling, but we know that He who so many times done more than we could ask or imagine is still able and has plans to prosper and not to harm us, to give us a hope and a future...Thanks for listening and praying again.
In Him,
Joy
