Update on Luis…

Thanks to all of you who have left comments about my husband’s injury. We are both thankful for your thoughts and prayers.

We were honestly expecting the healing process to move a little faster than it has. He is still in a lot of pain and having issues with feeling in his fingers and the healing of the wound. Considering he is a guitarist, it is devastating for him. He had two weeks off from playing our Wednesday night youth worship service, and I really thought he would be better and able to play by next Wednesday. It just doesn’t look like there is any way he will be playing soon. He does have an appointment with his doctor tomorrow, so we are praying for good news. 

Please continue to pray for his healing and recovery. We know God can work miracles, and Luis has more faith than *any* person I know.

As a reminder of his gift, here is a composition he wrote and recorded for his Dad’s birthday last year. He is such a talented musician in so many ways and is so ready to be back doing what he does best. 

All our love and many thanks:-)

Anita

    Sending prayers and positive thoughts to Luis and you, Anita. God has it covered, perhaps Luis needed a rest he did not even know he needed. xo

    So beautiful. I adore the Spanish guitar. What a beautiful tune! What a special father and what a special son to have compiled that for him, I wish him all the best. Prayers being lifted up. Que Dios lo bendiga!

    Luis is so very talented, Anita. What a gift! The music is beautiful, and the video brought tears to my eyes. It's just so obvious that your husband came from good stock. What a lovely family. The joy and love burst from the screen. My prayers continue for Luis' recovery. God bless you all. ~ Nancy

    I just listened to his beautiful playing. You are so right that it is a gift.
    Something has happened in my life recently that has effected the use of the one gift that I have like that, and my heart is completely broken over it. I will be praying for Luis with a heart full of true understanding. May God very quickly restore the gift.

      Oh no Debbie…I don't know if you posted about it, but I sure missed it if you did. I'm so sorry to hear that. Prayers and thoughts for you…just the thought is so hard to deal with. Thank you:-)

    Oh, wow. What a neat tribute!! The music was uplifting but soothing at the same time. I hope the healing process takes a turn for the better and faster soon. It is a shame that Luis is unable to share his gift right now, but I have every confidence that opportunity will be returned to him…with an upgrade for his inconvenience! πŸ™‚ (Although I really don't know how his music could possibly be improved upon. He really has a fabulous talent!!!)

    Thinking of you guys, praying for healing & patience, and wishing you both a restful weekend.
