Monday, June 23, 2008

Don made it back to the 8th floor today. That means hours of therapy both morning and afternoon. Keep up the work Don we are still praying for you. I was with Barbara today when the mail came and she was so very excited about the cards that came. She says Don really enjoys hearing from everyone. She also prints out the blog and comments for him to read. After reading a comment by John and Rhonda, I imagine that they will be working on a name for the new horse. Thanks to John and Rhonda for spoiling Don's horses.
I don't think we have mentioned that there has been another answer to prayer. Josh got his transfer and will be moving back to Olathe when they hire his replacement and he has some training time. It has been very hard on Josh to be far away during this time. We are rejoicing that he will be here in the not too distant future.

Don, just wanted to share with you the impact you, Josh, Uncle Lynn, and Dale had on Nathan when he was four years old. You all sang Holy, Holy, Holy at the services on the farm that year. To this day Nathan still sings that hymn and we sing it together at bedtime; at least I try to! I know most of those hymns are probably being sung in your heart but I expect to hear you singing them out loud again someday soon.

HE WILL CARE FOR ME
I walk today in the Christian way
Tho dangers I may see;
I will not fear for the Lord is near,
Ane he will care for me.

No matter what happens He will care for me, He will care for me; He will care me; And His mighty hand will enable me TO STAND, No matter what happens to me.

No test I face, but sufficient grace, Is ready for my need, When sorrows rise to obsure my skies, He proves a friend indeed.

Chorus

He will not fail in the stronest gale, That stormy winds can blow, And in his grace is biding place, Unknow to any foe.

Chorus

I trust in Him tho' disasters grim, Before me seem to be; He calms my fears and he dries my tears, and faithful is to me.

Love you, Don
The Carroll family
