Despite our prayers, Maggie didn’t make it to the Easter service at TBC. She is spending most of her time in bed still trying to recover from recent events and traveling. Because air travel was not comfortable for her, we’re driving to Houston this Wednesday for her next treatment which will be on Thursday (as far as we know right now – we’ve not heard a definitive word on her status in the trial but her appointments are active in her MyChart account). We also feel it’s in her best interest to reduce traveling to a minimum. We’re working to find a rental close to the medical center and may be setting up house there later this week or next. This has not been an easy decision (we love our family time at home), but we’re in agreement it is the best solution. Travel wears all of us out. (Big prayers appreciated for us to find a suitable place quickly). Two recent images from Houston:
Maggie’s transfusion last Thursday night.
The trail around Hermann Park where I run.
As you can see, we continue to have times of pain with a sprinkling of breath-grabbing-beautiful moments along this road. In my run Friday in a crazy-crowded Hermann Park, I spoke with a man walking his dog. In response to a question, Maggie’s story dripped out. As he left, he said, “I really hope everything goes well for her. I’m an atheist, so I don’t pray. But I will be thinking of her.” I only had a chance to tell him we’re Christians who do pray but appreciate his kind thoughts, too. I wish there had been more time to tell him about a God who created the beauty around us and still cares enough to hold Maggie in His Hand. I’m praying “Fletch” will meet our Lord.
We’ll continue to update as our plans take flesh. We appreciate the prayers for Maggie’s comfort and healing and for a comfortable place to offer peace and rest. Thank you!
PRaying ????????
Praying for safe travel and a place of comfort and rest for all in Houston.
In fervent prayer tonight! Praying for sweet Maggs of course, but find myself burdened to pray for “Fletch”! I truly cannot fathom someone really claiming to be an atheist! How do you look at a newborn baby and think about the miracle of conception and birth? How do you look at the beauty all over the world and not believe that something MUCH bigger than a mere human was responsible for this? My prayer is that you will run into “Fletch” again and again and as many times as it takes to share with him the Grace and Beauty behind the God you pray to and trust even in the most difficult situations of your life! #prayingforMaggie but also #prayingforFletch I love you all!
PRAYERS CONTINUE DAILY FOR MAGGIE AND YOUR FAMILY!
Praying with many others for Maggie and all of you. What a journey but we KNOW God is in control!
praying for Maggie
Oh, how I pray that all needs you mentioned will be met. God has just the right place picked out for you and for Maggie’s comfort. My consistent prayers are with and for all of you. I pray Maggie can get to feeling better and that the treatments will work. God bless all of you.
Praying…love you
Oh, how I pray for Father God to answer your every need. Even the ones you don’t even know about yet. Praying also for Fletch. I just cannot fathom how someone can believe that the great beauties of this earth were from a “big bang” and not from our Sovereign God.
Praying you find the “best “ place for you and Maggie to rest and recoup after treatments!
Praying!
So many prayers for all of you! God has her in his hands! Be careful on your travels. Pain relief is such a blessing and I pray the pain relief will come and stay with her! Love you all!
You’re all in my prayers!!
Pray that the journey, though difficult, will be filled with moments of joy and peace.
Praying for you all.
Praying for you all….
Praying for y’all and for “Fletch”! Praying the seed you planted will grow and that he comes in contact with others and that God will draw him to Himself! Praying for God’s guidance as you navigate the travel, schedule, treatment, place to stay, and all the many decisions to be made. Our God is merciful and I pray His mercy over y’all. “Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow STRANGELY dim in the light of His glory and grace.” ????????❤️ We love y’all!!!
Praying for whatever needs are & that they be met…. Love Our Hanberry’s & God Bless!!!
Praying that God will supply all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus our Lord!
