Maria. I know that your faith in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, will keep you this week and the weeks and years to come. I praise God for you and for the example that you have shown me in being a Christian wife, helpmate and being one who picks up her cross and follows Christ during very challenging times. As you know, a believer's trails are not for vain, not only do I know you glorified God these past few months as you took care of Kevin, but I also know you remained committed to our 5am daily prayer call through it all. You pressed on toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus, and God is pleased. As you know, you have a great support system and can definitely reach out to us when you need. Love you!
