Oh brother...

We got one sick missionary kid so lets all trim our hair....

My dear brother....

One cannot mix sin with the healing virtue of the Lord....

Esau wept tears as well but found no repentence...

BTW....

The sick missionary kid is my nephew....

Yes sir, I have been checking the blog off and on ever since we heard about Timo.
I am so glad your wife has this available.

My mother has called me the last 2 days for updates on your nephew.
We have all been touched by your family.

Still praying and believing in Jesus name.

RKS, we have been praying for Timo, and we're thrilled about the progress. We love Tremayne and Vicky.

I believe you misunderstood his words.

The plea was for us to stop fussing and pray for this real need.

Glad to hear the good reports!

Nope..

The poster connected his agenda to a poor sick missionary kid and that is extremely distasteful....

A prayer request for a sick kid had nothing to do the violation of a scriptural principle and standard of the church.....

Thanks for the prayers....

Timo is better today.....

I think you need to read it again. I do NOT want to take away from this prayer request thread, but his point was this young man has given his life to the mission fields and we need to gather together to pray for him instead of fussing about all these little things.

It's all about what you want to see.

Latest Text from Vicki
We are living a miracle
he is still mostly sleeping
but medical staff are all amazed




(Author's note: Earlier Vicki said he's drinking orange juice and @ one point Tremayne was out of the room and he asked where he was)

From Vicki
This morning as I sit here and just reminisce the great memories of Timo, his favorite song keeps coming to me. It is by Tye Tribbett 'I WANT IT ALL BACK!'

I believe in my baby's mind that is HIS prayer right now! I know for 'daddy' and I that is our prayer! We want him (Timo) ALL back!

Thank you all for your wonderful show of love and support! You are our strength right now - we are not strong enough on our own.

Love,
Vicki

Me: "What about life support?"

Vicki: "It is off only nose oxygen tube now. Breathing well and slowly waking from the sedation. Still very sleepy like from surgery."

Mom just called she is trying to reach Vicki now. She and a group of friends set their clocks for 5:00 am to get up and pray since that was the original start time of the process. I'm getting emails and etc from some of them. What a great surprise they had! Rather than pray I know they are rejoicing.


:55 CST
Was awaken to the following text from Vicki: "Timo has began to respond some. He recognizes us and has spoken a few words we encouraged."

I replied, "Awesome."

Vicki: "I asked him if he knows where he was and he said - 'Mars' in typical Timo wit!

(Tracie laughed out loud...Timo is a very sarcastic witted kid. Yes he still has his humor.)


I replied, "ha ha ha!"


YES!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, JESUS!!!!!!!
