Miriam wanted us to update you a little so that you can be in specific prayer for her over these next few days. We know so many of you are praying faithfully and Miriam certainly is sensing your prayers and is so grateful.
She has been specifically encouraged in these last few days with Psalm 37:5, "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this." The May 22 reading in "Streams in the Desert" says the following, "The literal meaning of this verse is 'Roll your way onto Jehovah and trust in Him, and He works.' This brings to our attention the immediacy of God's action once we commit, or roll burdens of any kind from our hands into His. Whether our burden is a sorrow, difficulty, physical need, or concern over the salvation of a loved one, 'He works'." So, with Miriam, we continue to roll our burdens onto the loving Father, knowing that He is sovereign and completely involved in every detail of her life.
This week we would love you to pray about two specific appointments Miriam is having. On Wednesday, Miriam is seeing another Oncologist in North Vancouver, Dr. Klimo, in order to have another perspective on Miriam's prognosis and any potential treatment. This Oncologist works in connection with a Naturopath in Fort Langley, and Miriam will be seing him on Thursday. She had an initial appointment with this Naturopath, and this will be a follow-up to that appointment. So, please pray for wisdom for these professionals and for Miriam, that she will know how to respond to them and to their suggestions. Ultimately, we know that God is the great Physician, but we know He can use the intellect and hands of earthly physicians.
Miriam has been feeling a little stronger over these past days and enjoyed having her brother Brien and sister-in-law Elaine from Calgary visiting over this past weekend. Thanks so much for your continued support and prayers.
Conrad and Marylynne
