We will rejoice and be glad in it. Daniel just left a while ago...it's around 5:30 am here. Keep him in your prayers today. Pray especially that the surgery will bring him relief and that the doctor will be able to find the problem.
He was feeling really queasy this morning...I think because his body is still trying to rid itself and process all that juice solution from his test yesterday; that coupled with being overtired, not able to eat for several days and a bit nervous as you can imagine. I am praying he will be able to sleep while they travel.
I am getting things in order here at home. Getting some more laundry put away, cleaning up a bit while the children sleep ect... I am looking forward to having the morning with them. I may try if there is time to take them to the park this morning to play before we pick up Josefina.
I am looking forward to being with Daniel this afternoon. I am bringing the laptop with me; while he's waiting for surgery, I want to read him each and every email/comment we have received these past few days. I've read every one of them, but he hasn't been able to yet and I know they will so encourage and strengthen his heart knowing so many love and care so much. He's looking forward to hearing them all. He has said over and over through many tears how much he appreciates all those who are standing with us through this through prayer. Oh, God is so good.
Hey Jaynee and Daniel,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to be the first one to comment this morning. It was nice to talk to you this morning...calmed my nerves a little bit. Tell Daniel that I prayed for him all night...Jamie and I will be praying for you guys throughout the day. I tried to tell Grandpa H, but he was sleeping yesterday so Mom is going to visit him this morning and tell him because he loves to pray for you guys. I told you that Grandpa believes one of the reasons he's still here is to pray for your family. Hang in there--

ReplyDeleteYou may not remember me from good old North Valley days but I sure remember the two of you. Boy was my heart saddened to read what is happening to your body Daniel. My husband and I will pray for you today as you have surgery, we will be praying for the wisdom the doctors will need during your surgery, Jaynee we will pray for you as you wait for the outcome, and we will certainly be praying for your children as they wait anxiously at home for both of your return. May the Lord's will be done and with an understanding that only he can give whatever the outcome.
God Bless!

Dear Lockwoods,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for you here in Indiana. The Lord woke me up this morning around 4 a.m....through our little two year old who was up and playing (!) - but Daniel and his health was placed upon my heart and mind and I spent a good long time asking the Lord to move on your behalf.

Hello Jaynee and Daniel,
ReplyDeleteMy heart was burdened for you both last night, and I prayed for you as I drifted off to sleep, knowing this day is a big one for you both. I'm up early which is not the norm for me, and just want you to know that many, many prayer warriors are in the fight with you today! What a blessing to be able to join you in that way. Our God is so much bigger than we can imagine, and though sometimes our circumstance seem SO impossible, you both know as well as I do, that HE can overcome!! What greater hope is there, than in HIM? Praying for you, and sending love from here in Sacramento!!
Love, Karin
I found your blog through cfhusband a couple of months ago. Our computer went down and I lost the link. You commented recently on Nathan's blog and so I wanted to come back and see if you'd had your baby. (Congratulations!) My husband is the youngest of 12 children, so that was one reason I was interested in your blog. I'm also a Christian and have several friends who are missionaries all over the world. I'm also a homeschooler. Anyway, I just wanted you (and Daniel) to know that I'm praying for him and you and all of your children and family. I'll keep checking in and praying for all of you. God is in control. I'm so encouraged by your faith and commitment to Christ and the Mexican people.

Hi Daniel and Jaynee, Thank you for sharing your family and all you do on your website. I prayed all day yesterday and will all day today too. I agree, God is wonderful!!! Much Love from Tom and Leta Scarry and our 4 children.
ReplyDeleteLord, this is the day we pray that Daniel will finally feel relief from the pain he has been induring over the past weeks. Keep him in your loving arms today so that he may feel the comfort and peace he will need to make it through the day. We also pray that Jaynee and the children find comfort and peace in You while they anxiously await the news from Daniel's surgery. Lord, you know what is best for this family, but we pray that he makes a full recovery, but THY WILL BE DONE!
ReplyDeleteJaynee, we don't know your family, although it feels like it lately :), I wish there was more we could do for you! I realize, prayer is the MOST important thing we can do and to make the sacrifice to remember to pray for you continually throughout the day, makes our Lord happy!

I also thought of you last night...although I don't know you! I was directed to your blog by Holly several months ago and again this week. I have been praying for your family. I am so thankful for the peace that you both have felt and the trust you are placing in our Lord. Surgery is not good. Sickness is not good. But God is very good. I'm praying!
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for Uncle Daniel all day! We love you both so much. Daniel, you're one of the strongest men I know besides Dad and Chuck. I know you can make it. I'm so glad we have the Lord on our side. With Him all things are possible. If you need anything, let us know. We're here for you.
ReplyDeleteLove, Chuck, Jacquee, and Samantha
Dear Daniel and Jaynee,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for you and your precious family. Thank you for your wonderful testimony of faith. Your family has been such an example to us. I was awakened in the middle of the night and was discouraged for a moment and then realized the Lord awoke me to pray for Daniel and your family. We thank you for your updates and will continue to pray for your family-what a privelage to bring your family before the throne of a living,loving, and active God. Jaynee, you are such a blessing and example. God will sustain and comfort you all!
Hi,

ReplyDeleteDaniel and Jaynee,
ReplyDeleteYou don't know me at all, but I feel that I am great friends with your family. I have kept up with you via your blog for some time now, and have prayed for you while you are in the mission field. It saddens me to see the trials that you are going through, and yet gives me hope that this will be yet another way to glorify our Wonderful Saviour when this too has passed. My husband and I have been and will continue to pray for your family.
May the Lord Bless you and Keep you

Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
And to take him at his word
Just to rest upon His Promise
And to know thus sayeth the Lord
Jesus, Jesus how I trust Him
How I've proved him ore and ore
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus
Oh for grace to trust Him more.
I'm so glad I've learned to trust Thee
Precious Jesus Saviour Friend
And to know that Thou art with me
Will be with me to the end.

Dear Lockwood family,
ReplyDeleteWe were praying for you last night during our family prayer time and the Lord had me pray the exact words from your morning post...
He is the Author and Perfector of your faith!! I was very encouraged to hear that your faith is being strengthened because that is what we have been praying for!!
God is so very good. We will keep you in our prayers today, especially. Thank you for your witness for Jesus in Mexico. Our family is getting ready to relocate to Florida and begin a ministry of building orphanages and churches. We are excited about God's leading in this. Your courage and faith in God has been a great encouragement to me this week, as I have just found your blog this past week. Going into all the world is such an honor and a blessing. We are so blessed to be His hands and feet.
Many blessings to you and healing for Daniel!! Love, The Hawkins family (from Oregon, soon to be Florida)

Hi Daniel, Jaynee, & family:
ReplyDeletePastor Henry here to let you know your family here at Grace is praying for each of you.
In the context of suffering and trials, Peter said: "For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil."I Peter 3:12 Two verses later he said: "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear:" v. 15
May our precious Savior give you the peace and strength to give those answers at this time, and for His glory. Our Love and Prayers are with you.
Pastor Henry, Penny and the Grace Family.
Dear Daniel and Jaynee,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying that God will give

I am staying with Nathan and Melanie while Abigail is still in the NICU. Melanie's mom was with them earlier in the week, and when Melanie was discharged on Thursday, I came up to take a turn. We are now staying at a nearby hotel, but spend most of the hours at the hospital.
ReplyDeleteI was just able to spend some time on my computer since I wanted to give Nathan and Melanie some time alone. I have read the updates and will give the report to them as well. We are all praying.
I know it will bring a smile to each Lockwood to know that Abigail is doing very well.
