We did not realize this until a few weeks ago, that we had another family picture. A couple in our church took this picture to make a church directory. They gave us copies. So we do have one with all of us in it, we can share with you.

Hi Loni and Family,
ReplyDeleteI just want to let you know that I continue to keep you all in my prayers. I'm so glad that you have this lovely family picture. I know how priceless it is to have a family photo such as this.
As I was thinking about your family the song came to my mind "He Knows My Name," I wonder if you've ever sung it? It goes something like this He knows my name, He knows my every thought, He see's each tear I cry and He hears me when I Pray. I know it's comforting to me to know that He is always interceding for us, especially on those difficult days when we find it hard to pray.
Love in Christ,
Sue Searles
I am sitting here... and reading Luke's mom's comments and tears are in my eyes. My heart aches for both of you. I can not explain how much we have prayed/thought/cared about Luke. Our boys and their boys are the same difference apart (our Wyatt/Wes) I feel like I am following Sue with her posts.... but I usually wake up and think when I get caught up I am going to check on Luke and Loni. So please know that you are in my thoughts. I want you to know I care and pray for all of you. I hope it is okay to share this too... when I found out I was expecting our youngest Wesley .. our Wyatt was only 9 months old (and he was born premature 33 wks)... I was feeling a little shocked and my dd brought me the song that Sue mentioned.... He knows my name. I am telling you this to let you know I believe the Lord ties us together as mom's to lift each other up and pray for one another.
ReplyDeleteI am praying you had a wonderful time visiting friends and being together. Thank you for blogging so we can know specifics to pray for.
our love,
