Don't Get Angry, Get Better!

So Katie and Aunnie are still in Mexico and Aunnie is responding well to her treatments.  We as a family have had to battle our feelings of frustration and at times anger that there are things out there that can help people, but they are not allowed in the US.  In particular I think Aunnie, who was a nurse for over 30 years, feels very let down by the very thing she gave so much of her life to.  She gave so much to the field of medicine and when she needed it most they had nothing to offer her.  Her doctor in Mexico told her, "Don't get angry. Get better!"  What words of wisdom for us all.  I was quickly reminded of Jesus' command to forgive.  Forgiveness is necessary for any of us to truly live.  Being unforgiving and bitter is such a poison that rots away anything good in our lives.

So today I ask you to continue to pray for my family.  I pray that we would let Christ's love deep into our hearts and let Him to a good, renovating work on our hearts.  May we find forgiveness in Him and Him alone!
