His first night out of the ICU was a little rough because of the new room, a roommate, and so much more noise. Last night he had some headphones and fell asleep to Praise Music, and slept well.
This morning they took out the last IV so Bryan is more mobile, able to move around. They also changed his bandage. So he is all ready to go home, just waiting on the official OK.
Bryan specifically asked for the warriors to keep praying against anymore of those "fiery darts", and especially for a quick recovery and the ability to sleep in his own bed tomorrow night. Bryan is determined and in good spirits toady.
Thanks!!

Bryan,
Know you are covered in the blood of Jesus from the top of your head to the tips of your toes!!!! I had a lot of attacks in my dreams and thoughts after my dad died and was overwhelmed with fear. This verse helped me a lot. I often spoke it out..."For God did not give us (me) a spirit of timidity, but of power, love, and a sound mind" 2 Timothy 1:7. We are praying for you to have a peace that passes all understanding!!! Lots of love to you!!! Emily
Wow, a lot has been going on in your last week. We are still praying for you here in Texas. I hope you are feeling better and better.
Hi Bryan,
I am praying and lifting you up. The people of God's army have linked shields with you and we are going forward and the powers of darkness will not prevail!
We are also rejoicing with you at the prospect of your homecoming/going!
When I was in the hospital to have Sam and there were many people who said that he may not survive being so small and all, God gave me this verse and it has seen me through many trials, fears and situations. It helps me to get my focus where it needs to be and I pray it does the same for you; brings comfort and helps you repel the fiery darts!
"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. the Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God that transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - Think about such things."
Philipians 4:4-8 NIV
Find peace and rest. The battle is already won!
Love you soooo much!

I had the same problem right before they released me. I was excited and afraid and had terrible nightmares! I also was unable to distinguish dreams from reality and my family kept having to convince me that it was a dream. This song by Todd Agnew gave me such peace and I also slept many nights with headphones on listening to praise and worship music. Remember, though it doesn't seem like it now...it will get better. God promises to be with us wherever we go!
Blessings, Lisa Warner again!
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see so clearly
Chorus:
Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, washed away
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Chorus
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing Your praise
Than when we first begun
PS- you may want sunglasses for the ride home and I also had to close my eyes the whole time or all the motion made me sick. Once the car stopped though I was fine!
the hospital may be able to give you sunglasses that they use for eye surgeries. They are flimsy and won't hurt your head if it is still tender....just a thought! *Lisa
Bryan,
You're doing so well. Prayers have been answered. God holds you in his hands, and he will be your strength.
Now take good care, and rest and heal.

Hey Bryan and family,
I'm so delighted to hear that all has gone well for you. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. I will continue to keep you and your family in prayer. Cindy M.
BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD!!
BLESSED BE HIS GLORIOUS NAME!!!
Progress is never made without challenges, but God always causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus!
from the song "Still".......
Hide me now under Your wings. Cover me within Your mighty hand.
When the oceans rise and thunders roar, I will soar with you above the storm. Father, you are King over the flood. I will be still, know You are God.
Find rest my soul in Christ Alone. Know His power in quietness and trust.
we love you all dearly,
Betsy, with Jim, Virginia & girls
