Life Changing

What to say other than THANK YOU ALL!!!! The amazing LOVE we have been shown already is just mind blowing!!! Sooo many people are already praying for Chris!!! I read him every email, fb message, wall post, and blog comment that I get!
And the amazing part is..... he has been able to move his fingers faster in the last two days than he has in months!!!! He also got up on the trampoline today and jumped with the kids for the 1st time in months! And how does that happen to a disease that does not regress..I'll tell you how.... GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!!!
     We were Christians already, but since Friday our whole perception of life has changed! GOD has came in and filled us totally with his Glory & Grace! The little "petty" things in life seem absolutely sensless! Who cares if a drink gets spilled, you get cut off in traffic etc. Those things don't annoy us in the slightest anymore! And food ..... we both use to love food... now its like yes this is good, but there is no need to over indulge! Our calorie intake has been reduced dramatically. And I am not even craving a coke, and if you know me that is wild! And almost every song we hear on KLOVE it is like hearing it for the 1st time! Worshiping the Lord with every song we hear! God is so good!

Lyrics to Before the Morning by Josh Wilson

Do you wonder why you have to

Feel the things that hurt you
If there's a God who loves you
Where is He now

Maybe there are things you can't see
And all those things are happening
To bring a better ending
Someday somehow you'll see you'll see

Would you dare would you dare to believe
That you still have a reason to sing
Cause the pain that you've been feeling
It can’t compare to the joy that’s coming
So hold on you gotta wait for the light
Press on and just fight the good fight

Cause the pain that you’ve been feeling
It’s just the dark before the morning

My friend you know how this all ends
And You know where you’re going
You just don’t know how you’ll get there
So say a prayer

And hold on cause there’s good for those who love God
But life is not a snapshot
It might take a little time but you’ll see the bigger picture   
 
We are taking a bigger role in parenting our kids! They have NOT been thrilled with their TV time being cut down to 1 hour a day. We have started them a "marble jar" when they do good, get along, help clean up or anything else that stands out as good behavior they get a marble droped in the jar. (or when they show bad behavior a marble gets removed) they don't like that idea much, but they have not lost a marble yet! :) We are spending much more time as a family. Enjoying the little things! Braxton is bugging me now to watch TV! LOL! and its still a no little buddy! ;)

I woke up last night at 4 am and just got so excited for the Lord I could not go back to sleep for the longest!
Chris tells me the same thing happened to him this morning at 7! We have ministry plans! When Chris is healed what a story we are going to have to tell!!

  This has opened up the opportunity to tell so many people about Christ! So much good is coming from this diagonis already!! We have had so many people offer to do anything we need them to do! Just keep lifting him up in those prayers! I promise you we can feel the strengthing, physically, spirtually and emotionally! There is going to be a special prayer meeting for him at our church Amity FBC and I will post on here when we find out when its going to be! We would love for anyone who can to come out and pray with us! I told him yesterday that GOD is gonna get so tired of people praying for him he is just gonna say ok ok, heal him! lol! But seriously thanks again so much from the bottom of our hearts!!! LOVE & GOD BLESS EVERYONE OF YOU!!! I will sign out today with 2 verses on prayer!
Love, Chris Autumn Brittany & Braxton Fagan

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. Matthew 21:22 (NIV)

Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.  Philippians 4:6 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
