Hang in there and rest in His sovereign will. Our ladies group started working on a new Mac Lynch song last night and there's a phrase in it that says something to the effect of when we are in the middle of a storm the Lord says "Peace," not to the storm, but to us.Jill Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06926951452215088962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-67769649846528477102007-09-22T23:30:00.000-04:002007-09-22T23:30:00.000-04:00THANK YOU ALL for your prayers & wonderfully encou...THANK YOU ALL for your prayers & wonderfully encouraging words!!!<BR/>I wish I could write a responce to each and every one of you!!

I was in AJ's room on a mattress last week, and the Lord comforted me with the truth that He never slumbers or sleeps! I love you, and we will be praying for you guys!Leah (Parrish) Millanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06449442547795800367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-77614346261353170772007-09-22T20:19:00.000-04:002007-09-22T20:19:00.000-04:00Erin,I'm so sorry to hear about Drew's sickness.

May you experience God's all-sufficient grace through it all. And, yes, maybe God has plans for Drew to be a missionary someday. Wouldn't that be wonderful?Kathi Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00349689517461810922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-63016443701645536742007-09-22T17:13:00.000-04:002007-09-22T17:13:00.000-04:00Hi Erin,We have been in those shoes with Amanda un...Hi Erin,<BR/><BR/>We have been in those shoes with Amanda until she was diagnosed with Celiac at about 20 months. It was so hard to watch her wasting away; but God was faithful. Then as a teen, eventually being diagnosed with GERD and asthma; but God was faithful. Your mother-in-law knows well some of the struggles Amanda has faced over the years, but God IS faithful. He has used these trials in all of our lives to bring glory to Him. As I have watched my children struggle with different illnesses, I felt so helpless. We will pray that the Lord will give wisdom and direction in getting a diagnosis and treatment for Drew. Persist, and pray. The advantage of Drew being a child is they won't say it's in his head...God is faithful; He will carry you through.<BR/>Sandy BlainAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-28876795501036769572007-09-22T17:10:00.000-04:002007-09-22T17:10:00.000-04:00WOW, what an encouragement you are!

It is so draining having a sick little one, but you are totally relying on God's strength and that is such an inspiration. You also look at the bright side of things. Maybe we should start praying that Drew will be a missionary! I will keep he and you, and the rest of the family to have God's grace showered upon you while Drew isn't feeling well and that God will give the doctors wisdom to look in every knook and cranny to see if they can find either what is causing this or for something that will make it easier on your poor little guy!Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01305423764234043241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-80476540784245265822007-09-22T15:54:00.000-04:002007-09-22T15:54:00.000-04:00Praying for you and your family's health now, Erin...Praying for you and your family's health now, Erin.

And then there are those who fight for their seemingly healthy children to survive. We are special people whom God has showered blessings on -- and drew is SUCH a blessing. From the moment you meet drew, his spirit lights up your life and touches your heart. I will be praying for you all.

It is so easy to let the stress and fatigue of motherhood overwhelm us...there's little that's better at reminding us what a blessing our children are and how much we love them than a sickness. It's such a good reminder of their helplessness and dependance on us. What a good parallel for our relationship with our heavenly father, heh? God alone is your strength--He's probably viewing you the same way you're viewing Drew right now...I'll pray for Drew to be well again, and I'll pray for you that you'll find comfort in knowing that God is right beside YOU as you sleep in His will.Debbie Griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15106519023233209536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34701306.post-50634505783560360542007-09-21T15:30:00.000-04:002007-09-21T15:30:00.000-04:00Poor thing!

I am a friend of Tammy's and I knew your husband (sort of) while he was an intern at Trinity. I left a comment a long time ago but I haven't wanted to bother you too much.<BR/> I must admit that I cried when I read your post today. The picture of your little Drew is so dear and your mother's heart is so apparent in what you wrote. I will add Drew to my prayer list and pray faithfully for him and your family. <BR/> Thank you for reminding me of what is important. You are a good mom and Drew and Jack are blessed beyond measure to have been born into your family. No need to respond, I just wanted you to know that I am praying.<BR/>Rachel FeehanRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15786503854290478861noreply@blogger.com
