Stretching is good for all of us. It would be an understatement to say that this is a stretching experience for all of us who know the Peterson family. Imagine how stretching this moment is for Scot, Carolyn (Cary) and Brent. Physically today Brent had a couple of moments where he fully stretched his whole body - his legs and feet are moving well. This stretched the spirit of his parents as they watched their son moving in the right direction.
(Just a fun fact about Scot and Carolyn (Cary) - Scot loves Tim Hortons and Carolyn (Cary) loves Purdy's Chocolates (too bad there's no Purdy's in Saskatchewan!)
The Petersons THANK YOU for your continued prayers. They are also grateful for the support they have received and for the encouraging responses found on the blog and facebook. These comments go a long way in the healing journey for Mom and Dad P. so please feel free to publish them. :) (and one day Brent will get to read them..imagine how this will make him feel!)
The medical staff at Regina General Hospital are incredible. Thank you for all your hard work in the healing process of Brent's life.
A prayer for Brent:
"Father in heaven, Your word says that you are our healer, we plead in the name of Jesus that You will heal Brent totally. Drive this infection completely out of his body (Psalm 103:1-4). Father, we plead that you will heal Brent because of Jesus' work on the cross. By His death and the merits of His blood, we pray that you would grant healing to Brent (Isaiah 53:4-5)". AMEN
PRAISE THE LORD!! For HE is good!!!

Brent, you are one of the most amazing boys I have ever met. You have fought such a long and courageous battle that has shown so many of us what a tough spirit you have. Keep it going my buddy. We will see you home soon so I can give you a big sloppy, wet kiss.
ReplyDeleteHugs and love,

Brent you are making my day bud! Keep fighting hard because we can't wait till you can come home. We love you tons and tons and continue to pray for you with every breath. Scot & Car you are an incredible example of Christ to us and everyone who knows about this situation. Don't forget Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." Can't wait to see you again.

My kids are home from school today for an inservice... they have been arguing a lot today... stretching my patience. God brought your family to mind - and reminded me to pray for you again today, as I'm sure your patience has been pushed to the ultimate limit, waiting on the Lord in so many ways. I pray for you that there would be an emense patience that passes all understanding. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has been drawn closer to the Lord in praying for you! The Martens Family, sending you love.
