Update (3/1/09 - 8:00pm)

Said our goodbyes to Ryan and Michelle. They will be driving back to Vermont tomorrow, so please pray for their safety in the midst of the Northeast snow storm.
Cindy battled headache and nausea throughout the afternoon, and has been in and out of consciousness all day. She was not able to eat anything for dinner. She is sleeping soundly now.
Matt and I are going to grab a bite to eat. I plan to fast all day tomorrow.
Thank you for the continuous prayer support. I am convinced that not a minute went by today without someone being in prayer for Cindy. That is so comforting.
I feel the pressure of the enemy reforming their battle lines to rob and destroy my peace and confidence. I have to continually transfer the burden to Jesus, my shepherd and burden-bearer. The burden is too big for me. I have to trust Him, and I choose to do so. It is powerful to know that He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world.
-Rick

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27

Thank you to those that have posted words of encouragement on Cindy's blog. Know that I read each one of them to her.
Matt, Ryan, and Michelle are here with us now. Cindy is sleeping soundly.
