Paul's Story

God spent decades on my dad. When asked why he needed Jesus, he simply responded that he was going the wrong way. God was patient with him. He was going after his soul and he was saved not by anything he said or did, but by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ. He died without any fear and is now standing in the presence of the one true God. We will all have to stand before God & give an account for our lives. Thanks to the victory of Jesus through the cross, my dad's sins were forgiven & I will see him again in paradise. Amen! In January 2011 Paul was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. Unfortunately on 3/9/2011 an MRI scan showed that the tumor has spread to his brain and is at stage 4 which is incurable. Paul passed away on April 21, 2011. This blog was meant to keep people updated and informed. The family appreciates all the prayers and support.

wish we could share good news today

I wish we could share good news but the effects of radiation are beginning to become noticeable. Paul is very weak and is struggling to eat due to a loss of appetite. He can no longer walk on his own and feels very tired. Today he has a meeting with several professionals at the hospital to figure out what we need to do. I think they are going to get us a wheelchair and a walker.

Prayer request
Pray that he has an appetite
Pray for the doctors and other professionals to have wisdom on what to do
Pray for dads spiritual strength

Psalms 55:22 "Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee..."

- Mark
