But for this post I am requesting prayer. There is a little boy, a baby really, only 16 months of age, who has recently been diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer. His big, brown eyes make my heart ache. The day after he was brought by medivac to Anchorage, he was hoarse from crying. His weak voice and body were only the beginning of the days ahead. His treatment will be awful, his recovery is questionable, but above all, his family needs Christ.
I sit in the comfort of my warm home, my kids off at school, participating in sports, work and music. I am blessed abundantly. My family has never had a trial like this to go through. I, in no way, can began to relate to the fear of the unknown that this young family is facing. But I do have something that they do not currently have. Jesus. Faith. Belief.
It is my prayer that beyond any healing, that this family will turn to understand that Christ is the source of help in trial. Peace in the storm and joy in tribulation. God is the God of miracles, and I am confident that Jesus will be glorified in this situation.
Thank you prayer warriors for joining me and many others in prayer for precious Ethan and his family.
