Waiting....

Just an update, John's doctor in Newport Beach has asked for another type of scan, PET/CT so we are working to get that done quickly. So there is really no news yet. John is doing alright, tired a lot and very weak on his right side. Thanks again for your continued prayers.

Hello Champions,
We were just informed of the update on John's cancer. May your family scripture "Romans 15:13" be your comfort, peace and HOPE today and in the days ahead. God is pleased with your faith and perseverance through this challenging and I'm sure, very tiring battle. The battle belongs to Him and He will continue to carry you through, rest in Him, as we know you are, and know that you are loved and prayed for by so many in the family of Christ. Miracles still happen today and we know that our God is capable, so we intercede in the name of Jesus for a miracle healing for John.
We miss you all and love you,
The Panici's

Dear Ones!

We continue to uphold you before our loving Heavenly Father, our Great Physician!

From I Peter 1: in "The Message" came these encouraging words to my heart: "God is keeping careful watch over us and the future. The Day is coming when you'll have it all - life healed and whole.
. . . .Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine. When Jesus wraps this all up, it's your faith, not your gold, that God will have on display as evidence of His victory."

May you all feel God's loving arms holding you close and lifting you up!

Love, Prayers and Blessings,

Don and Verna Brust

For my family whom I love dearly I share with you the Words God has given me:

2Tim 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

Jer 29:11-12
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope . 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

Isa 53:5
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.

And Finally:

Num 23:19
19 "God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?

GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL AND I WILL STAND ON HIS PROMISES!
