Anna Grylls update Saturday midnight
If you haven’t read Sarah’s post, I recommend you click on:

http://www.thoughts.com/sarah/blog/for-anna-grylls-19361/

We love to read all the comments and posts.  Thank you all!  We thank God for the love He has placed in so many hearts for Anna – I read so many comments and get emails from so many who have never met Anna, never even met Lael or I.  God has worked a lot of miracles through this whole situation, and we praise Him for it!

Today was kind of hard at times, I packed up a lot of Anna’s stuff in her room upstairs, took down her crib, and moved Bliz (our eldest daughter) into Anna’s room.  We had been planning to let Bliz move in there anyway in a year or two, and have Anna move in with Em, but even so it was a reminder that Anna is still sleeping in a hospital bed in our dining room with a nurse sitting beside her all night.  The ol’ whale’s belly is still there, if we choose to take a look at it…!!!!!

Anna’s secretions are continuing to improve – she can now often go 15 minutes without suctioning, and she continues to become more relaxed.  She seems to react when we switch her suction machine on (it’s got a loud motor on it).  Also Lael has noticed that when she unbuckles her out of her carseat, she often leans forward, as though she’s getting ready to get out.  These aren’t unequivocal indications of responsiveness, but they sure are encouraging anyway!  PLEASE PRAY that her knees would bend, that she would SWALLOW, and she would make conscious responses!

God bless,

Richard

Bro. Richard...we are still believing and praying for you.
He is more than capable to meet all of our needs, and I believe He will.
You all have been such a blessing to so many out here (in the churches, on the internet, etc). Your story has touched the hearts of many, and people from all over the world are believing and praying with you.
We will continue to pray that her knees would bend and she would swallow. You know, that devil can't keep up the fight too much longer. With thousands of believers fighting and praying against him, he's bound to leave soon. With each prayer, he gets weaker and weaker. The Lord will prevail, and Anna's knees will bend. It's just a matter of time.
Keep on pressing on, knowing that the Lord has healed Anna...we're just waiting for the signs to come forth.
Thank you, Jesus for healing Anna. And thank you Bro. Richard and Sis. Lael for your faithfulness and and strength during this time. He's all we need...He'll meet our need.
Praise the Lord for His faithfulness and goodness. And thank you, Lord for healing sweet little Anna.

Earnestly believing that each request you've laid out this evening will be met soon. We continue to press and pray for each of these things, and for Anna to wake up.
God bless you.

We passed around the photo montage of Anna and your family last night and everyone commented on how beautiful she was and how like her mother. So many people have taken her into their hearts and will continue their prayers for her total recovery. Whatever happens, may the Lord's will be done. I hope you have a very special Sunday today, all of you - Elaine

GREAT.SHINING.LIGHT_ JEFF.IN V-24 N-1 SUNDAY_ 57-1222
141 When you said, "Mountain, be moved," and it still stands there, you say, "Well, it didn't happen?" Oh, it did happen. When you said, "Mountain, move," maybe one little significant grain of sand turned loose out of the hundreds of billions and billions of tons. One little grain moved, but it's begin to take place. Hold that faith and watch that mountain disappear. Certainly.
Thou shall say in thy heart, "Disease, move from my child. Disease, move from my body in the Name of the Lord Jesus," and don't doubt. Right there the good germs take on a new armor and a new weapon, and the enemy begins to back up. He's defeated because Christ, in the drinking of His myrrh at Calvary, defeated the devil and every one of his powers. And He stripped him of everything he had, and he's nothing but a bluff; he can go through with it, he will do it.
We are determined by God's grace to preach the Gospel and reflect His Light until He comes.

ONENESS.OF.UNITY_ WATERLOO.IA V-2 N-7 TUESDAY_ 58-0128
25-4 O God, my Father, I come in Jesus' Name to pray for this people, who has now honestly and sincerely have confessed their wrongs. O blessed God, may this be a night that they'll never forget. May the Holy Spirit come into every heart just now, and just move out all, everything and all the sickness from their body.
I now challenge the devil to a debate. Satan, you are aware that you are whipped. You have no legal rights. Jesus Christ, my Lord, stripped you of every authority you had when He died at Calvary to take away sin and sickness. And you're nothing but a bluff and we're calling your bluff. You know that when our Lord came to the tree, He cursed the tree. The next day it was withering. And our Lord said to His disciples, "Have faith in God. For if ye shall say, ye shall say to this mountain, 'Be moved,' don't doubt in your heart, but believe what you have said is coming to pass, you can have what you said."
Satan, you know the Scripture on that. And I just taught this people that God is in them, and if God is in them and they speak to that disease and say, "Be away from me," and don't doubt in their heart; right then that disease has to move, for Christ said so. For it's not them that speaks, it's the Father that dwells in them that's speaking. They're in need so, come out of them in the Name of Jesus Christ. I say as God's servant by a message from an Angel, Who anointed and has prove to the people that Jesus is here, and the message is right. So come out of them in the Name of Jesus Christ. I adjure you to leave every sick person and get into outer darkness in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I was hoping you had seen Sarah's blog. You ought to read the poem she wrote just before it and you will have an idea of the true impact you are making on lives. I don't envy you; this is not the way I would choose to do it either, but I know your ernest desire is to use your lives to make an impact for Jesus Christ.

It had to be hard to pack up Anna's room. I'm sorry for the pain. Just know that we love you and are praying here. I just e-mail Sis. Megan this morning. I know for a fact that at least 3 of the 5 UPC churches here are praying for y'all on a regular basis.

C'mon Swallow!! Be of good courage. No matter what happens, we have overcome the world.

Much love,
Deb

Dear Grylls,
Anna's story has touched my heart... I am a mother of a 16 months old baby boy and I can only imagine it how hard it has been for you guys to cope with this trial. I live in NC, but I from Brazil... I have a faithful church (in Brazil) praying for Anna's healing...I too believe in her healing and I'll keep her in my prayers.
May the Lord Jesus keep Anna today and always. Amem!
Jesus Christ is the same today, yestarday and forever(heb 13:8)
Praise His wonderful name...
Sis. king

You know Richard, it seems like I am always sending you guys a song. But songs just say everything so well and I think this one is good for you now. It's called. "Warrior Is A Child"

Lately I've been winning battles left and right
But even winners can get wounded in the fight
People say that I'm amazing
Strong beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me
I'm hiding all the tears

(Chorus)

They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
'Cause deep inside this armour
The warrior is a child

Unafraid because his armour is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that I'm amazing
Never face retreat
But they don't see the enemies
That lay me at His feet

Chorus x2

I drop my sword and look up for His smile
Because deep inside this armour
Deep inside this armour
Deep inside this armour
The Warrior is a Child


Richard,our Father knows that there are times when we just need to sit with our head in His lap and just let the tears flow. It all right, it's a form of healing also and you all will need that just as much as Anna. Then you get up and have faith that every battle that we fight has already been won by our Lord and ever loving Father.

We are here for you with much love!
Shelley & Family
