Submitted to His Sovereign Will

Luan was discharged yesterday (20 Dec 2006) and is now resting at home. Hospice has lent them a bed and private nursing services have been engaged to relieve the family in their care of Luan.

She is weak in body but when she is awake, her mind is still very alert. Due to the urge to go on the commode her rest is much interrupted.

Please continue to uphold Chris, Chung En & Hui En, also two of Luan’s sisters who have come up to assist in looking after Luan which entails dispensing her medication, pain management, helping her on the commode, cleaning the colostomy bags as well as feeding her (through the tube) and seeing to adequate supplies of the various things. There are also much adjustments that have to be made (sleeping arrangements, marketing, meals, different nurses, etc).

It was good that last Sunday, Chris and the children could join with the church to worship the Lord. Chris even ministered in prayer to the members. As a church we prayed for them and cried to the Lord for His help, submitting to His perfect plan whilst appealing for His divine intervention. Together with you as His body we have been much impacted by Luan’s situation, each one growing in our experience of our God in our respective journeys with Him.

Thank you to all of you who have prayed, visited, called, smsed, given love gifts and helped in one way or another. During this painful and difficult time the family really appreciates all your love and encouragement. We continue to look to His grace and mercy and submit ourselves to His Sovereign will.
