Dear Patty,

How saddened we were to hear of your latest diagnosis
( cancer of the esophagus as well as other areas of concern).

You sure can count on our prayers for a miraculous healing.
If there is an elder in your church that can anoint you with oil and pray for your healing, it would be beneficial.
( James 5: 14)

And what an overcomer you must be to maintain your sense of humor and calm in the face of Satan's strong attack.
Surely God has surrounded you with His grace and He will be with you through all of this to deliver you.
" I will never leave you nor forsake you" Hebrews 13: 5

" I will love you O LORD my strength. The LORD is my Rock, my Fortress and my DELIVERER.
My God !
My Strength in Whom I will trust." Psalm 18: 1

We are also keeping in prayer : your sil ( cancer) ; bil ( heart )  ; twin Mike ( fainting episodes) ;
older brother ( stomach ) and your whole family for Salvation.

God gives more grace, as there is more need. He is a trusted Help in times of trouble Psalm 46:1.
You sure know all about that.
We don't know why sorrows multiply, other than that satan is relentless and works overtime, never taking a rest.

Isaiah 59:19 "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him".
Lifting up a flag or an ensign against the enemy is saying "Thus far and no further" ; as in the case of Job.

It also tells us in Job 5:19
" He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven ( meaning all total, complete amount )  there shall no evil touch thee".

I like that verse because it reminds me that no matter how many problems arise, there never is one too many for the Lord to handle. Is anything too hard for the LORD ? Genesis 18: 14

Please know every day that both Jim and I are holding you up to the LORD for His merciful grace and Deliverance.

Thank you for letting us share in your victory,
Jim and Angela
