Dear Robert,
 
What kind and good words of encouragement!! I have been blessed by what you have shared.  A continuing theme of releasing my father has been shared.  I did call one more time and talked about more surface level things hoping he would feel okay to discuss eternal issues, but, by his choosing he did not.  The last chapter for his life has not been closed and I do pray that he chooses in the end to choose Christ.  I may not know until we are with the Lord what he has chosen. But, I have given him my best.  Thank you so much for praying and sharing.
 
Eva,
 
It was Saturday when I wrote my prayer for Mark regarding his salvation in Christ.   I think it is wonderful he knows the One who healed him!!.  May the name of the Lord be praised!!  It is my prayer, that God lead Mark to a strong, Bible teaching, Bible believing church to help him to get to know Jesus more intimately.  PTL!!
