Touched

It has been humbling to see the response of friends and family over the past few days. After we got the news about "poppop", we sent out some prayer requests and updates on Facebook and email to friends, collegues etc. Within just a few minutes people from all over the place were praying and adding words of encouregement. Friends from our church here as well as supporting churches in the US were adding us to prayer lists and chains.
It was pretty humbling really.
For so many to take the time t let us know they were praying means a whol lot to us not to mention the fact that so many requests for Koke were laid before the Throne.
It's hard being apart right now. I am here to keep things going on this side with church, BBC and other tasks and responsibilities while Casey and Emma are in NJ caring for family. At least Emma, as always, is providing some comic relief to all and sundry - which is perhaps more needed then anyone realizes right now.
All in all, I feel touched that people really DO care, no more keenly is that felt than at times like these.
