prayers for jensen...

Our little town has sure had it's share of sadness. Obviously, like any other town in America. Since i live here, I'm struck by how many young lives are being affected by cancer. One case that is close to our hearts is a little guy named Jensen Anderson. The boys have been praying, very faithfully for him over the past year or so. It has been a joy to watch their hearts as they 'give' him over to The One who has the power to heal him. Jensen is, at the moment, just coming off a very strong dose of radiation in Houston, Texas.
Being on the sidelines, watching this family has not only been heartbreaking but it's also been inspiring. The Anderson family has shown an amazing amount of faith. They trust, with all their being that God is still in control! That inspires me!
One of the things that makes me LOVE this little town we live in is that people support hurting family's in such amazing ways. One of the fundraisers was a Papa Murphy's pizza day. For every pizza sold, PM donated a large percentage to the Anderson Family in order to help offset their medical expenses. I thought this was an especially great fundraiser because I didn't have to cook dinner!
God bless you sweet Jensen. We'll continue to pray!
