Giving Thanks

It is the day after Thanksgiving, and its "dejavue". 365 days ago, I sat in a hospital waiting room, waiting through the surgery, praying for Rebeca, anxiously waiting for news about her condition. It's been a long road. Today, 365 days later, I sit in another hospital waiting room. We have traveled from Jahuara to Culiacan, down to Mexico City, and now we are in Corpus Cristi, Texas.

I am thankful for:

• My Saviour, who gives us hope in times of difficulty. His promises are what have brought me through this situation.
• My family, including the Casarez. I love them very much, and praise God for them!
• For "voz sos..."
• My immediate family's health
• The good times I have spent with little Rebeca. I pray for many more to come.
• Elda. She's a riot. I love that little girl!
• For ice cream. It's cheering me up right now!
• For music.
• etc.

Give thanks, on the mountains, and in the valleys.
