12/4

I'm so proud of my Daddy today. He has put in so much effort to move BOTH his hands today. The doctor had warned us that Dad's right hand and limb movements would not be very strong considering that the left part of the brain is injured. But today, we saw him try. He also did a little kick a few times with his left leg. We cheered him on!

God's hands are in every detail of Dad's recovery. He may be weak, but God's power is made perfect in weakness. For Daddy is weak, then he is strong.

Mum said that when Dad progresses bit by bit, she is always so excited to see what tomorrow unfolds. She encourages him to try more, and it's uplifting when we watch him try again, again and again..

We read him Psalm 23, Dad's favourite before we ended the night with him.

"Surely Your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life.."

Please pray that my Dad, Samuel will continue to draw strength and encouragement from the Lord. There's more than just medicine working here.


Love, out.

"There is more than medicine that's working here" I think that line is brilliant!

Dear Linnie,

It's so exciting to hear good news from you each day:)
May i know is your dad awake when he is attempting those movements?

Sharing this song with you, i'm sure you know it well. From Israel Houghton

It's been on replay in my laptop for many days lately!
Very cheerful song, lifts up my mood each time & it's coincidentally based on your dad's favourite verse:D

Praying for you.
