Living Faith





You know there are always those times in our lives where we just stop where we are, pause, and say Our God is Good. As most of you know Collin was diagnosed with leukemia back in the fall and has just now in the last days come home for the first time from Children's. Emily and Phillip are living out their faith. Emily said tonight that, "This is our new reality," keeping him safe and loving him through this trial. I know that I would be full of doubt about God's provision if I was in their place, but they are just so firm in their job as protectors and parents. They truly are a witness to what so many of us 'say' we believe. So many prayers have been lifted up for this family but Collin can always use more. Please see their caringbridge site http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/collinmarsh and leave them a caring message of hope and steadfast prayer. They've had a really good week at home and by the looks of the pictures, Collin hasn't missed a step! or should I say crawl. He is super close to taking off. He really wanted his toys tonight. Emily and Phillip are great parents and Collin is one of the happiest boys I've photographed. So..... our God is Good, because of the doctors and caregivers Collin has had.....for the medicine available to him....and the smile he spreads on Collin's face! what a delight. Go hug your babies!
