Prayers needed for Family coping with setback

Please join in Praying for a special family coping with their young child being treated for LCH ( Langerhans cell histiocytosis) for the last 7 months. They have received a discouraging result and are awaiting more tests and decisions about new medications and what procedures to proceed with next.

This was not the report we have been praying for and has us all discouraged. We know that God has a plan for this child, this condition and for the family for good and not for harm, but right now all we see is the things in front of us, which are not showing the awesome power we all want in this situation.

Pray for the friends and family supporting and encouraging the family to renew our minds and hearts and to pull our wisdom and strength from God and not conventional knowledge or personal abilities.

Remind us, God is in control of this situation, this is not a surprise to Him. God loves this child more than we or his parents do and we see him through this.
God loves these parents and siblings and knows exactly what they need to do, see, hear and will bring this things to them in the right time to remind him He is with them. Pray that we remember these things and that we encourage and support them in the way they need and help them draw closer to Him through these days.

Jeremiah 29:11, "For I Know the plans I have for you." Declares! the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

As caring humans we want to help, we want to make it better, we want things to be good, peaceful and easy and well sometimes that is just not the way things are supposed to be, but even in the most painful, unwanted and unwelcomed trials, God is blessing us, Loving us and Holding us and we just don't realize it until He can get us to quit looking at what we want and just drop and give Him the time to show us what will be with Him guiding us.

If you would like to join in encouraging this family, write a note and email it to me or comment below. (I have opened the comments to allow all comments and simplified the submission) I will be printing them out and taking them by to the family.
