A Shot of Inspiration...

...for someone who is dealing with much harder struggles than myself.

We just found out today that the father of one of our best friends in MT has Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer. It's been a long 3 months for Justin and Jess, who have been dealing with the ups and downs of this diagnosis from 3,000 miles away. The progression of this terrible disease took a turn for the worse on Sunday night, and they made the decision to catch the next flight to Maine. By the grace of God, Justin's dad condition has since stabilized, but they have decided to pack up and move to the East Coast to be with Justin's family during this difficult time. No doubt Justin and Jess are exhausted from the roller coaster of a ride that they've been through over the last few months. My prayer for them (and all those who are dealing with the struggles that come with chronic illness) is that they trust in the Lord to give them the strength and energy to handle whatever comes next.

Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Jeremiah 29:11

You are in our thoughts and prayers. We love you guys!
