Test

Valerie is traveling up to Los Angeles very early Thursday. Chris and her will leave at 3:15am. Val is scheduled to check in for a laproscopy/biopsy at 5:15 am at Cedars-Sinai Cancer Center. This is actually a surgical procedure and depending how it goes they may spend the night there tomorrow as well. Pray all goes well and that the results are very clear.

Please pray that God will give the McCreas very specific direction according to His plan for them every day. Each new day seems to bring new hurdles and concerns and decisions that are all too much for our human brains to comprehend.

Pray for strength, healing, direction, and peace , through Christ alone, for Valerie.

Dear Val, Chris and family; My prayers are with you now and tomorrow morning, as are the prayers of who knows how many people all over the country and even across the ocean. I pray that God's divine presence would be with you and the doctors as you move forward in this battle. Don't grow weary, my friend, you will get through this. There is always sunshine after the rain.. And Jesus has the power to calm this storm just as he did when he was in that boat with the disciples. And when you feel afraid, turn to Him, He knows fear, remember in the Garden of the Getsemane, when He was praying for the cup to be taken from Him. He knows how you feel, and He holds you close to His heart in all of this. I am so thankful that you are able to get the tests done this week, so that results and decisions can come soon. I know it is so easy for us to say "Hang in there, Val", we haven't walked in your shoes. But Jesus has, and He and only He can give you peace in the middle of this storm. So my prayer for you tonight is that you would feel that peace, that warm divine feeling, knowing that you are truly in His hands, and that He loves you so, so much. Hope to see you soon!! Keep smiling! And thank you to your dad Richard for letting God speak through Him in His messages. They have ministered to me so many times, and helped me through my days, and to realize that we are but vapors in the wind, and when we do look to His face, everything else seems to fade away.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Psalm 31:24 Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.
love in Him, Osil :):):)

Valerie and family...
For each and every one of you...we pray. My last waking thought each night is prayer for all of you. And when I wake...the prayers begin. I pray for peace, for strength, for endurance, for answers, for healing, and for rest...knowing that each of you rests in God's loving, safe hands every minute of every day. Val, I pray that you are free from fear and any pain tomorrow before,during, and after your surgery. We will be with you in spirit. Know that God will be standing beside you with His hand upon your shoulder...protecting you. And that we will see your smiling face very soon!
And for you all...Valerie, Chris, Ryan, Gavin, Tyler, your mom and dad...your sister...your WHOLE family...I pray that...
The light of God surrounds you,
The love of God enfolds you,
The power of God protects you,
The presence of God watches over you,
Wherever you are, God is...
And all is well...Amen.
Love,
Kerry Randall

Dear Val & Chris,

Although it's been awhile since I've left a message -I think of you every day. Every time I pass your home - I say a prayer. I've come to find it so peaceful to pass your home. I have thought often of the message your friend left about how you envision the angels surrounding your car. I chuckled - wondering just how many angels it would take to surround your entire house!

I am in awe at the love that eminates from this site. You are both so loved. Please know that our family is praying for peace and health for both of you!

Love, Frank and Jenny

Dear my sweet Sister, As your know this week has been amazing to our family. God worked so quickly. As this journey continues, my prayers are so intense for you and your family. I pray tonight for a good night sleep, and rest and peace for your family. God proves every day that he will provide, everything we shall need. He will Val, answer all of our prayers. In this quest Val, I pray you will know at all times, your family in Christ, is at times with you, good or hard. I see you at school and I am so overwhelmed at your spirit, and trust in our Lord and Savior. I pray you will let Him wrap His loving arms around you, and comfort each and every moment of your life.

Blessed be His name. I hope to see you after school tomorrow, and you are indeed resting in Him.

My love and prayers are with you at all times of everyday.

In His name, Tami

Val,
I tried to reach you at Cedars yesterday and today. I am praying for positive news from the doctors after your laproscopic surgery. I feel confident that this last surgery will allow you to be at peace with a definative diagnosis. I pray that you have been able to get rest and that Chris's back is healing.
Sending you my love,
Marianne
