Dear Ruth,
So sorry I missed seeing you at the Hymnsing yesterday. Please know that you and the girls are, and will continue to be, in my prayers.
I trust that God will continue to encourage and give you great peace as you go into the surgery, and that He will guide the hands and minds of your surgeon and the surgery team.
Love,
Judy J.
Dear Ruth,
I have been praying for you and your family since Pastor Bill moved up to heaven. I want to share something that I found in Our Daily Bread a number of years ago:
Cancer is so limited . . .
It cannot cripple love,
It cannot shatter hope,
It cannot corrode faith,
It cannot eat away peace,
It cannot destroy confidence,
It cannot kill friendship,
It cannot shut out memories,
It cannot silence courage,
It cannot invade the soul,
It cannot reduce eternal life,
It cannot quench the Spirit,
It cannot lessen the power
of the resurrection.

The Lord is with you and your family each step of the way.
With love,

Dear Ruth:
I just want you to know that you are in my prayers. Much has happened since the biopsy, but I can pray more specifically.
May God's amazing grace provide the necessary strength and comfort you and your family will need. I do pray for healing and overall physical adjustment.
Thank you for being such a godly witness for our Lord.
