Strength from the Wings of the Almighty Eagle

By the grace of God I've been reunited with my precious children. It was a long trip with many, many delays. As many of you know I was med-evac'd out of Okinawa (in mid Dec) because of a chemical imbalance in my brain brought on my sleep deprivation and post partum hormones. This imbalance did not take over me by the blood shed of Jesus - HALLELUJAH! I am regaining strength and full function every day. Please continue to pray for us as this has disqualified us from remaining in Oki. We'll move by the end of this month to San Diego for continued care. I am now back in Oki to say our goodbyes and help with the move. While I was recovering in the states we managed to purchase a vehicle and get on the housing waiting list. Pray it will be a quick and stress free tranisition. His grace is sufficient and has carried us on His wings this far. I know He'll continue to carry me through this time! Mike has been such a wonderful source of strength. He remained faithfully by my side at my worst and helped nuture me back to health. I am more in love with him today than ever. I'm so glad I married a strong man of God - my Marine, always faithful - simper fi! Thank you for your prayers and support!

Wow Melissa, I had no idea you were going through so much! I kept checking back here and thinking you must just be really busy. I'm praying for your recovery now, and happy that you'll be returning to the states. How is it that you'll be stationed about as far across the country from your sis as possible?? I hope you will get to see each other soon. Much love and continued prayers, Jen
