lyla’s dedication
Today was a great day. We went to a baby dedication for our little Lyla Parker (Scott and Ann’s youngest) and spent some time at a party afterwards. Misty was doing really well.
On the way home actually, she was trying to tell me something and we were having a bit of trouble. So she started humming something. After a few tries, I realized she was singing “Speechless” by Steven Curtis Chapman. Another few minutes and I realized she was asking me about a story I told her over a month ago about how his daughter died (post from may 22). This was really cool because when I told misty about that originally she wasn’t really “with it” enough to process the conversation and give me any response…but now, weeks later she randomly remembers that (his song came on the radio) and she finds a way to talk with me about it. It’s encouraging that even when she didn’t understand what was going on, her mind was absorbing stuff. I can’t wait till that time in the near future when we get to sit and talk (with words) about how she had cancer…should have died…but was healed.
Tomorrow (monday) is MRI. I’m not worried…

Such wonderful news!! God Bless Misty. I have not stopped praying for her full recovery. God is good!
I actually started laughing and clapping when I read the last line of your post. I fully and completely expect that this is going to happen and we are going to see with our eyes the amazing hand of God! Misty’s healing is starting to occur and I am so blessed to be a part of this – I love seeing how your faith is increased; day by day, minute by minute and I agree with you and my faith is increased. What an amazing, powerful God we serve!!!
