Dear friends and family,
It's been a long time since I have cried in church, not sure if that is good or bad! But this morning one song hit me pretty hard! I really embraced that God has never let go of me. The song said, "every high and every low He will never let go, thru every calm and every storm, God will never let go of ME"!
Be blessed today and listen to the truth of the song that touched me so deeply this morning!
So looking back at our week there have been some high and lows.
The high is that we have really been blessed with many people praying for us as a family and those prayers are being felt and very appreciated, don't stop. So many of you have blessed us with your words of faith! It helps when more than one person says the same thing! The message keeps coming back that Ron & I are not finished here yet!
Another high is that Ron has got a world renouned doctor taking him on as a patient. She told him straight up not too worry you've got at least another 20 yrs. or more! Not quite what the textbooks say but we'll take it. The news made it for an awesome week especially knowing that this doctor is not taking on anymore patients. So the power of prayer is awesome.
The low this week has been in a couple of practical areas:
1. The overwhelment of the regiment the doctor has Ron on - seemed so big. Thank God for people who practically take your hand and help you sort it all out. He is taking about 50 tablets a day and my responsibility is to get his alkaline levels way up.
2. Another low is that the class for March 25-28 is very low and with all of you talking and sharing we should have a waiting list. So continue to pray cause if we have ever needed this ministry to prosper, it is NOW...
3. Financially it is the toughest it has been in a long time yet we see God's faithfulness everyday.
What comes next:
- this week we wait to hear when Ron goes for his next surgery. It should be scheduled in the next couple of weeks. The surgeon will excise the rest of his lymph nodes in his groin and see if there is any further spread of the cancer.
Don't forget to enjoy the song:
So again thank you for all your support and prayers.
Definitely working at "Staying Above The Line",
Ron & Tina

POEM
Mother to Son
by Langston Hughes
Well, son, I’ll tell you:
Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.
It’s had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I’se been a-climbin’ on,
And reachin’ landin’s,
And turnin’ corners,
And sometimes goin’ in the dark
Where there ain’t been no light.
So boy, don’t you turn back.
Don’t you set down on the steps
’Cause you finds it’s kind-a hard.
Don’t you fall now—
For I’se still goin’, honey,
I’se still climbin’,
And life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.
Ron and Tina.......this poem made me think of you both. It is one of my favorites. Perhaps mostly because of the lesson of perseverance. Truly our Lord has promised to us that He would never leave us nor forsake us. Our heartfelt desire is to comfort you with the comfort that we have received. "Because He lives, we can face tomorrow." Love always,
The Piersons
