New Update/Sunday May 9th 9:39 AM

I update this morning with so many emotions. First of all such gratefulness and joy to our Lord that Nick's CT scan from yesterday has came back clear and showing no additional tumors at this time. PTL!! HE is King and glorified through this news. Now we know what we have to focus on.

Nick called and was in tears from the pain of the current tumor. He said he feels so useless as he cannot do anything but lie in one position to get any relief. The doctors are working very hard to find the right pain med combo that will help him but not incapacitate him so he can still function.

It is crazy how you can feel gratefulness & joy about one thing but also immense sadness about another. Besides my sweet Lord and Savour there are two other people I live for, my Nick and my Aaron ( I jokingly refer to us as the 3 Musketeers!!). There is only one place to go when I feel depleted...on my knees and to my Lord crying out for his love and peace to fill me up. He let's me know He is with us always carrying our load , shining His light into our darkness, assuring us He is on control if we let Him. He is equipping us for the battles they lie ahead and most of all that He will love us through anything & everything. It is Him and Him alone that will will provide ALL that we need.

We are so thankful for our friends, our church and each other. Your phone calls, emails, texts, and most of all your prayers provide a blanket of comfort to us that we are so grateful for.

Happy Mother's Day to all you sweet Mom's!! The joy of the Lord is your strength! Neh 8:10

Glory in the Highest,
The Badidas


Psalm 33:22 May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you.
