CONCERN TURNS TO CONFIDENCE

Hey everyone,

There's been some challenges these past few hours. Sometime last night one of Brent's lungs collapsed. The medical staff diligently took proper action and took care of him. There are no side effects other than Brent has been really tired and groggy today. The respirator is back to 35. Brent slept all afternoon . They did an ultra sound on his lungs and everything now looks good. Some anxious moments throughout the day, but now we can have confidence that Brent is once again moving forward in the right direction.

A prayer, "Father, the Lord Jesus Christ has taught me to ask, seek, and knock. I ask You to grant healing to Brent. I seek you for the release of Your power into his life. I am knocking for the blessing of physical and spiritual wholeness in Brent's life (Matthew 7:7)" AMEN

Confidence that healing is happening.
Confidence that God's in control.
Confidence that Brent's in great hands with his parents, family, friends, Regina General medical staff, and God.
Confidence he's moving forward.

Keep hoping.Keep loving.Keep praying.

  1. Two steps forward and one step back, that's the nature of recovery. We're always praying for God's richest grace and healing touch to fill your lives. Go Brent and GO GOD!
    Love you all,

  2. This is the CONFIDENCE we have in approaching God:that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we KNOW that he hears us-whatever we ask-we know that we have what we asked of him" 1John 5:14-15.
    We thank you, Heavenly Father, for the confidence we have in you-the confidence Scot, Carolyn & Brent claim in you, as you,dear God, oversee Brent's recovery, as you orchestrate his healing, as you guide the medical staff and grant them wisdom, and as you reign in control. We praise you and thank you for holding this family ever so close to your heart.In the precious and powerful name of Jesus, we pray, Tim & Cathy G.

  3. Dear Beloved Carolyn and Scott

    Just recieved an email at 5:15pm today from Morris Cerullo World Prayer Center.(& others recently)
    They are praying for Brent and have put him on the prayer Center for 30 days also. I will update them at a later date with the good news!
    "For I will heal you of your wounds, said the Lord" (Jeremiah 30:17).
    Be incouraged that prayers of faith are not going to dwindle. As we ALL together believe the Word and stand on His promises,know that we are in agreement with you on faith for God to move in a mighty way on your behalf. We love you!
    May the Lord grant you favor over all that you desire of Him, and may His light shine on you always.

    In the mighty name and service of King Jesus.
    He's always their for the hurting.
    An intercessor for my King Jesus.

  10. Scot, Carolyn and Brent,
    As ALWAYS, you are front and center in my thoughts and prayers - every breath and every moment of every day! Love you lots! Peace be with you.

    I found a picture of Brent today from grade 7 camp - he was dressed in a lovely pink jacket for a game of Mission Impossible!! Of course he had a goofy grin on his face! Good times! I love it!
