Jesus and His disciples boarded a ship to cross the Sea of Galilee. As they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep and a great storm arose. The wind blew and waves covered the ship. Jesus' disciples thought they were going to be killed, so they awoke Jesus and cried, "Master, carest thou not that we perish?"
Jesus said, "Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?"
"[Then] he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said
unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased,
and there was a great calm"
When the storm ceased, the disciples were
amazed and said, "What manner of man is this,
that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
This afternoon, I feel the calmness of the sea!
Thank you all for your fasts and prayers.
We love you all,
giig and harry

I generally don't do well if I fast,due to diabeties and the hand ful of pills I have to take with food but a stake speaker told us once that if we had to take meds to do it with a sip of water and the Lord would accept it. So I did and He did too. Mom & I joined your fast.
Sat. & Sun reports were just wonderful and we know that the Lord has his hand in this.
Y'all will still be in our prayers,
Love,
Daddy
gigi,
Brock's birthday is October 3rd it's right around the corner! I can't believe my baby is almost ONE!
Sweet is the peace. . . I think all family and close friends have traveled through this week with you and Harry, and as usual we have felt God's hand over us all especially Y'all and the doctors and caregivers. It has been a very bumpy and disconcerting ride -- one which we called mightily upon the Lord. Indeed you are blessed and we are blessed to witness the miracles and love of The Lord.
Hugs, Love and prayers always,
mama
love yall & I am glad your sea is calm for once this week! Our sea was calm tonight to!
I'm just grateful for the Sea and your faith that makes it calm! Again, I am amazed at your love and dedication to Harry and firmly believe that is what helped the Lord to calm your seas! What a journey and what blessings you will receive! Hang in there! Love ya!
Today was a very peaceful day for our family as well. We are so happy to hear Harry is doing well. I love reading your blog, I wish I could be as dedicated will mine.
It was a pleasure to fast for such a worthy cause. What a perfectly appropriate analogy of the calming of the sea. So glad for a good report. Keep them coming.
I love this story
I too fasted for Harry, on Sunday 9/7, and had a wonderful Sunday. The Spirit was very strong and very loving. It's amazing to me how much the Lord truly loves each of us.
It's also great to hear that Harry is recuperating so well...our continued prayers.
Love
