I remember after one of the major setbacks my dad had when he was in the hospital, this doctor's face changed before my eyes. He looked into my eyes, and he looked like he was going to cry.
My heart was already broken, because I was afraid my dad was slipping away. But my heart broke for this doctor, I could see the fear and sadness in his face.
Incredibly, my dad pulled through. He's worked really hard and is now at home. He is on oxygen, and he is still gaining his physical strength back, but he is alive, and we are all so grateful.
When I went to hang out with him last Tuesday, I saw the sketch for this year's garden.
The garden is going to be a lot smaller this year. I told Dad I would love to come and help him plant it. I would love to learn about gardening.
Last Summer, I loved getting the vegetables out of Dad's garden. This Summer, I'm glad to still be able to talk to him.
I think that's called growth.

What a testament to how our Lord answers prayer, exceedingly abundantly above all we could ask or think! Thanks for sharing, Dana!
