Update On My Dad

I got the call from my Dad today after he had a follow-up with his doctor. Sadly, his trip will have to be canceled. We know that God has a plan for everything, and even though we don't understand, we trust God enough to know that it is for the best. Of course, it's hard not to be a little sad, especially so close to the time he was supposed to come. But I have a comforting peace, knowing that my heavenly father is in control.
As far as my Dad's health, there's not much change with his blood clot. He's on the appropriate medications, but the doctors have told him that it could take up to 6 months to be completely broken up. If the Lord puts it on your heart, we would appreciate prayer for him. And thank you for all of the prayers thus far.

Prayers have been said and continue. I requested prayer at church last night.

Perhaps he'll make it to your next home and stay LONGER!!!

Hugs to you...and thank you for your sweet submissive testimony to the LORD's will.

I sure will pray! The waiting must be very difficult, so I'll pray for peace too.

We're praying! God is so good to show us all this before he took the trip! Maybe he can still make it before it gets too cold.

I'm sorry for your father not being able to visit you, hopefully he'll feel better soon and then come visit.
