Physical Therapy Completed

Just wanted to let everyone know that Travis graduated from physical therapy this week. He met his goal of balance and strength in just 8 sessions (4 weeks)! We praise God for His protection during the surgery.
In January, Dr. Lang (the surgeon) informed us that there was a possibility that Travis could be permanently paralyzed on his left side as a result of the surgery. God graciously protected Travis and he only had a slight loss of strength and balance needing a small amount of physical therapy. Thanks to all of you who prayed so fervently during the surgery on January 10th. We are so thankful and grateful that this part of the recovery was quick and successful.
Praise God from Who ALL blessings flow!

I will give You thanks forever, because You have done it, and I will wait on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your godly ones.
Psalm 52:9

Yea!! Praise God!! I LOVE literally getting to "watch" God at work!! I (traci) have been wanting to share my favorite song for the blogger CD, so here it is!! it's called "better hands" by Natalie Grant...i know kinda girlie...BUT she shared at Revolve why she wrote the song, and it was for a little boy whom she knows that was recently burned very badly, and is having to put his trust in God, knowing that there is hope when our faith runs out!! Praise the LORD!! Here are the lyrics for those who haven't heard the song:

It's hard to stand on shifting sand
It's hard to shine in the shadows of the night
You can't be free if you don't reach for help
You cant love if you dont love yourself

There is hope when my faith runs out
Cause I'm in better hands now

It's like the sun is shining when the rain is pouring down
It's like my soul is flying though my feet are on the ground
So take this heart of mine there's no doubt
I'm in better hands now

I am strong all because of you
I stand in awe of every mountain that you move
Oh I am changed, yesterday is gone
I am safe from this moment on

There's no fear when the night comes 'round
I'm in better hands now

It's like the sun is shining when the rain is pouring down
It's like my soul is flying though my feet are on the ground
Its like the world is silent though I know it isnt true
Its like the breath of Jesus is right here in this room

So take this heart of mine there's no doubt
I'm in better hands now
I'm in better hands now

Travis and Jen, you guys are so strong, your faith has inspired all of us! you are in better hands, there IS NO doubt!! we love you both!!
