Where to from here?

Posted 18 March 2008, 11:51 AM by Clinton Berends. Permalink

Hi Church,

Wow... to be honest we are a little blown away at the moment. God's grace to us has extended to where we have prayed, but beyond where we dared to always hope. Its a lot to take in all at once, we are in a bit of a daze, but we are extremely thankful.

Yesterday we spent a long time with our naturopath, Margaret Foley. She too was blown away by the results. She said she had been quietly confident that the tumors had shrunk, but not to this point.

We talked a lot about where we go from here. She has suggested that we continue on, slightly less intense, but almost the same, for another 3 months. She is concerned that we give it a little longer for the lymph node to reduce and the last 'shadow' to disappear. This means 6 juices a day, instead of 10, an injection every days, rather than every day, and things like that. Following the 3 months I will go onto a much easier maintenance program, for a long time.

Having come through what we have, and seeing the power of God at work, it doesn't seem like much to continue. But having said that, it will be impossible to do without your continued support, love and, most importantly, prayers. We continue to look to God to bring about complete health, as he has begun to do. It will mean the continuation of a juicing roster, and grass growing, and reduced working hours for the short term future.

We are extremely thankful for your support so far and are thankful for your commitments to ongoing support in the future.

We also are thankful that God has used, and continues to use, these circumstances for his glory and to make known the greatness of Jesus. May he continue to do that as we together point to Him.

Thanks again

Clinton, Tracy, Tane, Ky and Kezia
