21 Days Till Christmas!!!

SPECIAL NOTICE: I have just heard from the Mah Family at Lymelinks that they have brought in extra help - so if anyone is wanting to order Jessica's necklace for Christmas presents, they can be ordered thru this weekend at the link below and they will arrive in time for the holiday!!! Thank you and God bless!!!

This necklace is dedicated to Jessica's struggle with Lyme Disease and RSD. It was made to honor her commitment to Lyme disease awareness by Lymelinks. I have heard that people are already receiving their necklaces thru the mail and it is beautiful. They feel that it is another way for them to feel "connected" to Jessica from afar.

UPDATE:

I can't believe that Christmas is only 3 weeks away. This is the season of Advent. It is the time of the year that lays the foundation for the celebration of Christmas. As we wait for that special day, we remain hopeful in the promise that God made to his people - the promise of restoration through the birth of our Lord Jesus. This was to be our gift from God - the true gift of "love". It is the most special time of the year that we rejoice and pray and give thanks for everything in our lives. It is a time of expectation as we wait for the coming of our Lord.
During Advent, we have the chance, once again, to receive Christ anew in our lives. To refresh and restore our faith with that ancient truth and future hope.

That is our hope as well for Jessica. To try to restore her body back to better health; and to renew our faith as well during this Advent season to know that all things are possible through Him who was born over two thousand years ago! As you know, Jessica has been struggling this past week with her gastrointestinal issues. She is also still experiencing problems with her vision and that has been very hard on her to say the least. But, just as we are waiting in anticipation for the "coming" of our Lord Jesus, so to, are we waiting for Him to do the impossible, because we know, through our faith, that all things are possible with Him!!!

So we ask that God bless you all this Advent season and in the coming year and may you all feel renewed and refreshed in His love!

Special thanks to Pastor David Long of the Union Church in Monterrey. He brought communion to Jessica and I yesterday and we are so very grateful to him and his wife and the entire congregation - they have all been a blessing from God to us!!!

In God's love, with hope,
Jessica's Mom


"Nothing is impossible with God" Luke 1:37

  2. Won't it be incredible when He comes again in great power & glory!

    He spoke the world into being - now that is power!

    And He holds your sweet Jessica so lovingly in His hands. These same hands that were used to measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and to mark off the heavens.

    It is Him who we trust and wait on for the healing of your sweet Jessica. May it be very soon!

    With love & prayers,
    The Turners

  3. Dear Sarah,

    I have only emailed you, but you are a truly wonderful mother. I pray hard with every day, that Jessica will have a small victory after victory. You and Jessica and this blog and Mr. Stevens have made me want to be better and stronger. I knew faith through my minister, but since I have read about Jessica and talked with you and David. I have now been touched by it. Our family will pray every day for Jessica, to win this battle and keep your strength up.
    love to you

    PS: Please tell me when your boxes arrive and if Jessica can see it.

  5. Jessica, I read a book called "Traveling Light" by max Lucedo. The book is based on Psalm 23. I thought it would be a good book for you and Sara Gina :) Faithful In Prayer, Crystal
