Clinging to the promise, “With Christ all things are possible.”

A repost from CaringBridge, March 9, 2019

The day has come and gone. Dad is resting comfortably. We are all still kind of in shock and disbelief that our active, healthy, golfing, preaching, “shucking and jiving” (one of his favorite phrases) DadPapaRon is having to fight this uphill battle. Yet, here we are. We cling to our faith that God is in control. We know He is always good. We take comfort in the fact that He loves him even more than we do. And we pray. We pray for a miracle of healing.

As we’ve read the many comments of love, support and prayers here, on Facebook, through text messages and phone calls we are reminded that God chooses to show His love through His people. And boy oh boy is he showing it through all of you. We feel the fingerprints of God through you. You’re holding us up, and we know the heavens are well aware there’s a big need down here because you’re asking on our behalf. Thank you from all of us in the Horan Clan. Thank you for loving us. Thank you for loving our DadPapaRon. He loves you too, and we pray that he’ll soon be able to tell you all that himself as only he can preach it!

Tomorrow is a new day. Wow, it’s amazing to think how quickly life can change. Hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight and cherish each moment. Life really is good. We take so much for granted. Suffering – and watching suffering – makes us really realize what’s important.
