A Quick Post And We're Off To Bed

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, My savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

This song has been running through my head since Thursday evening after our time of prayer. It has continued as I think of how great our God is! He is great enough to bring us to your minds when prayer was needed. As I was looking over all of your comments, I was overwhelmed by the timing of your prayers. We were covered in prayer from the time surgery started on Dad until we heard that Nate was being stitched up. How great Thou art!!!

We decided to tag-team it today and all of us had great visits with both Nate and Dad. It was so good to be able to spend some time with them, even if it was just to sit and pray while they slept.

A few prayer requests to keep in mind:
Dad has been feeling very nauseous all day and is eager to feel well quickly. Please pray that he would feel up to eating soon. Please also pray that he would get good sleep tonight. As a praise, he met his and his doctors goals of fulfilling his breathing exercises and walking down the hall tonight. Yeah Dad!
Nate was able to eat well tonight. Please continue to pray for balance as the doctor and nurses seek out the right combination of medications. Everything is so delicate right now. The kidney continues to function well today. Yeah Nate!

On a similar note: Please continue to pray for us as a family; that we would sleep well, drive safely and take care of ourselves as well. The hospital can, at times, seem like a time warp and the day may be over before you realize you haven't had dinner let alone lunch. We are all working on developing balance in our day and responsibilities.

being firmly upheld,
Alicia for all of the Robertsons
