Thank you. Those words feel so weak for what I want to express to everyone.

For those of you who don't know, or who have shady details, my grandpa was in a bad motorcycle accident on Sunday evening. He was riding the back roads near Milton, like always, when his back tire slid off of the road. The bike flipped, throwing him off, and then landed on top of him. Some people were near when it happened, and an ambulance took him to MTMC. He broke his collar bone, several ribs, his leg, and he also fractured one of his vertebrae, I believe. He also has a bruised lung. They needed to operate on his leg, but because of the bruised lung, they had to take extra precautions with the anesthesia. So, they took him to Vanderbilt for the surgery, which turned out okay. Their main concern now is that if the broken leg does not stop swelling, they will have to do another surgery in which a large incision must be made to relieve the pressure off of the nerve.

He is in stable condition.

I feel so battered. But, in light of all of this, I say praise be unto the High and Glorified One Who binds up the broken hearted. Praise be to our Sovereign King! Grandpa survived the accident. He's going to be okay. He'll be okay. I was so distraught Sunday, but God had me covered from the outset. I called Clint who, in turn, led all of the rec guys to pray for my family. Chris showed up at the hospital and prayed with me, and later Clint and Rachel showed up and prayed with us, too.

Everyone, everyone who prayed for us, who continues to pray for us, thank you. Praise God for friends, warrior brothers and sisters, who love us and are there for my family and I when we need you. Praise God for you! And Glory and Honor be unto our Lovely Father, who protected Grandpa Jay when he wrecked, who is there to bind the broken hearts of my Grandma Nancy, of my Mom and my aunts, of my brother and me. Praise be to our Father who heard my plea for reinforcements, and was faithful to answer in a way like I could not imagine.


Thank you, Daddy, my True Father.

Thank you.

Thank you, everyone, all of my brothers and sisters in Christ, every single one of you that lifted my family up in prayer.

I love you all so much. Please, please know that. I love you in Christ Jesus.
