Snow and Houston
Wow. Yesterday’s snow total prediction of 4-8 inches was a teensy weensy bit off.
An hour ago, Matt measured 18 inches in our front yard. It has been snowing hard ever since. This is a picture of our street around 10 am.
And this is Matt attempting to get out of our driveway. It didn’t work. He spent the next hour trying to shovel himself out of the road.
We are so thankful that Pat and Sarah, along with Matt’s mom and dad (Gigi and G-Pops to us), beat the storm and made it safely to Houston yesterday. Please pray that tomorrow’s consultation at MD Anderson will go well and that a surgery date will be set asap. We will be joining them in Houston hopefully soon. In the meantime, pray for their comfort and peace and continued faith. Pray for Lynlee and Owen while they are away from their mommy and daddy. Pray for Matt’s mom and dad while they walk through this with them, as well as Pat’s sweet family.
I watched a video recently of a man who was overcoming some tremendous struggles, and something he said resonated so deep with me. It was something like this…
“The one thing I’ve learned is that God is faithful. And when our little bit of faith intersects with His faithfulness, He shows up big and does amazing things in us and through us.”
We believe that.
Angie, thanks for sharing..and thanks for the update on Pat & Sarah. We are so glad they made it safely and are still praying for them. Let us know if there is anything you or they need.
Thank you, Desty!
WOW! They were predicting that much snow for where I live and I am glad it missed us for the most part. Four inches is enough, especially after last week! Hopefully the snow will clear soon so you all can make your way to Houston! PS: Great family picture!
I’m glad it missed you, too, Kelsey! This stuff is pretty but not too much fun! Hopefully we will be able to make it out if we get the call. Fingers crossed!
Wow, NWA looks like COLORADO! Except it’s sunny and cold here and we only have about 6 inches on the ground! Enjoy another week off. Ha ha ha.
Still praying…
Meredith, Matt came in this morning and said, “You’d think we were in Colorado!” Today I wish we were!
Ang, I have been praying for your family and all that everyone has to go through. My thoughts and prayers are with y’all and I have requested prayer at church so you have the entire Oak Grove community and family praying. We love y’all and please let us know if we need to do anything. If you remember I am a good babysitter!
Thanks, Tammy. Hope we get down that way soon and see you guys!
Ang we are praying and trusting in the lord for sweet Sarah’s healing! God can do more than we can ever fathom. Praying God’s peace and comfort for each and every one of you while you walk along side Sarah. Praying the Lord will give her rest and ultimate healing! Love you guys!
I will continue to pray for Sarah and Matt as well as your entire family! I believe surgery will go well and all scans will be negative!!! Mom receives the results of her PET scan tomorrow at 1PM. Praying for a Good Report!
Angela and Matt, I am not aware of what is going on with Sarah, but I will be lifting her up in prayer along with all of the family. Please let me know if there is anything I can do.
