Another Update to keep in touch...
Good Morning: I can't believe that we've been here for almost a week already. Eric's pain is under control and his anxiety is also more controlled here at the center than it was at home. We don't carry on many conversations anymore but sit in quiet moments with contentment knowing that God's timing will be perfect in all of this. I really don't have a lot to share but wanted to let you know that your prayers are always felt. If they weren't, we couldn't face this experience with God's peace. It definitely is an experience that cannot be explained, even in my own mind as I live it each day. We love you all... Eric and Gwen

As I read your blog post today, the song "Blessings" By Laura Story came to mind. I wanted to share it here. Prayers for you and the whole family.

Lyrics
We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things
Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe
Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise
Each day I'm praying for all of you! I'm praying for peace that passes understanding down in your hearts! Be reminded that God is with your every thought and deed. God is love ALL the time, ALL the time God is love! In Christian Love, Cindy
Our prayers and love continue. God who cares for the lillies and the sparrows has His eyes on you and Eric and Emily and Adam. He is carrying you all in his arms on this journey. May you continue to feel his love and peace. The Erbskorns
