Dear James, Lynette and Family,
I am weeping over your most recent writings, wishing that God would grant Sydney some vacation from the pain she is experiencing. I canot possibly know the pain she must be going through, but her strenght continues to amaze me. I find I am now waking up several times a night and praying for her to not have the pain, for all to be well. I admire your strenght and courage through all of this. Your friends and family are all in constant contact and praying for your family and Sydney. I have asked people at my office to add Sydney to their prayer list, so many that don't know her are praying for her now. Thank you for writing to all of us in your time of grief, it is so appreciated. I will be constantly thinking about you as you continue on this journey and hope that along the way good news will prevail over the discouraging news. My love to all, especially Sydney, Patty

We are praying for Sydney daily and fasting for her too with the Providence family.

We have a 5th grade boy, Kyle, at PCS and our girls, Grace and Heather are in high school. We are good friends with the Bryans.

I heard about Sydney from my sister, Shirley Mechem. There are a group of us praying for her here in Southern CA along with one in Northern CA, one in South Carolina, and one in TX (along with your many friends and family). Went to a dinner last night and heard about a man who was told just before Christmas last year that he only had 4-6 months to live due to an aggressive cancer. One year later, his cancer is almost gone and his prognosis is excellent! I pray that this happens for Sydney too!

The Great Healer
(from Praying the Bible for Your Children)

"When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake . . . one of the synagogue rulers, named Jairus, came there. Seeing Jesus, he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with him, "My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live." So Jesus went with him. Mark 5:21-24

Dear Lord,

Sydney is really sick, and we're
worried about her. At these times we feel so helpless. Please come to her hospital room today, as You visited Jairus when You touched his little girl and made her well.

Thank you for caring so much about little miseries like swollen tonsils and measels and ear infections, as well as life-threatening afflictions. Thank you that You spent so much time healing people when You were on earth (Matthew 9:35). We long for You to do the same for Sydney and the Thweatt family today.

You are the Great Physician. And You ask us simply to pray for healing. Lord, we believe You can heal with one touch, one word; exercise Your power even when our belief falls short (Mark 9:24). We will praise You even before we know the outcome (Jeremiah 17:14).

Give all of us the faith of Jairus, who came to you straightaway. Hear our plea. Heal Sydney, O Lord, and she shall be healed; rescue her, and she will be completely well (Jeremiah 17:14).

This is our prayer today, Father. In Your powerful name. Amen.

We are praying! Thank you for the update. We have been waiting anxiously to hear some word and know more specifically how to pray.

Your strength is an encouragement to all.

Our Lord is Mighty! He can heal Sydney and we pray for him to do so. We pray for continued strength for each of you. We pray for His peace to be upon you.

Nothing escapes our Lord's knowledge and therefore we pray for all the things humanly unseen.

We love you!

I have been praying for Sydney for several weeks now. I heard about her through a friend whose daughter attends Clark High School. They have gotten to know Sydney's aunt and think the world of her for the help she has given them. We attend Hunters' Glen Baptist Church in Plano. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for your family. We will pray daily.

James and Lynette,
We are praying for you all. This morning I prayed that God would comfort Sydney in a way that only He can do and give you all you need to 'walk on water' again today. Your family is a beautiful reminder of what it is to be surrendered.
With His love and ours,
Allison

I'm continually inspired by all of your love and devotion to each other and your constant search for the Divine Truth--God does give you strength and answers--your friend--Jody

I'm sitting here at my desk, my eyes filled with tears after reading today's update. I'm nervous about showing Daron the email. I have never seen him cry as much as I have since Sydney became ill. He sheds tears not only for Sydney, but for James as well. He respects and adores his friendship with James. If Daron could take away some of James, Sydney's and your pain Lynette, he would be there to do so in a minute. We send our love, hope, and prayers to you. Valerie and Daron

Lynette wrote: "We realize it is difficult for you to be part of this."
Oh precious Lynette, I love you BUT how VERY wrong you are on this point! There is NOT ONE person alive anywhere in the world who knows the name of Sydney Thweatt who does not count it a PRIVILEGE and BLESSING that you have opened yourselves to us and ALLOWED US TO BE A PART and STAND BESIDE YOU.
Let me help put this into prespective for you - like the times when you ACHE and feel TOTALLY HELPLESS to aid Sydney, so WE (those you have allowed to"be apart of this")FEEL ABOUT YOU and your Family.
Lynette you heart and mind are focused where they need to be so you cannot know how much all of this has BLESSED each and everyone of US as we have all drawn closer to GOD and matured in our relationship with our Lord and SAVIOUR Jesus Christ. It is NOT HARD nor DIFFICULT to stand with you. ACTUALLY it is an unspeakable HONOR and JOY and IT IS the VERY THING GOD has ASKED us to do. For as we "BEAR ONE ANOTHER'S BURDENS, SO WE FULFILL THE LAW OF CHRIST JESUS."(Gal.6:2)
Lynette said: "It would be so much easier for you go about your own business and not endure the pain with us."
Again, precious one that is where you are wrong for "we are all ONE BODY" - We are THE BODY of CHRIST JESUS and "what happens to one its His members, happens to all of us. "So our precious one, rest in the arms of HIS love which reach out to you, draw you near and HOLD YOU CLOSE, for WE "are HIS arms," and what we "do" is nothing compared with the joy of serving Christ. With all our collective hearts we say THANK YOU and GOD'S MULTIPLIED BLESSING BE UPON SYDNEY,YOU and JAMES for the honor to serve God through you. We LOVE YOU & continue to be your "Joshua," holding up your arms, until the VICTORY IS WON and we all cross over into the "Promised Land"

Thank you for the update and darling pictures of precious Sydney. Your faithful witness inspires me each day as does Sydney's courageous spirit. You're constantly in my thoughts and prayers.
All of my love to all of you,

My devotional says this today:

As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over its young, spreading out its wings, taking them up, carrying them on its wings, so the Lord alone led him (Deuteronomy 32:11,12)

Out of our Nest:

Moses had never forgotten the metaphor of the eagle that the Lord had given him at Mount Sinai. "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to Myself" (Exodus 19:4). Subsequently, during the wilderness wanderings, we suspect that every time Moses watched soaring eagles or observed how they cared for their eaglets, he thought of the Lord and how He was training His people.

In his final message to the people, Moses draws on his observations of the training of the eaglets to fly to remind the Israelites of the Lord's methods with them.

After an eaglet is born, it is totally dependent on the parent eagle for food. Like the eagle, the Lord had cared for His people. But eaglets will stay in the nest unless the eagle stirs up the nest and forces them to fly. If in their first efforts to fly they are in need of rescue, the eagle catches the eaglets on its wings.

The thrust of the metaphor is that the Lord stirs up our safe nest and pushes us out of our comfortable conformities. The Lord is constantly disturbing us, pressing us on to new challenges He has prepared for us.

This gives us a different perspective on change. Whenever new opportunities are given us, or problems and difficulties make new demands on us, or people around us trouble us, or even when our carefully constructed little world falls apart, we can be confident of this: The Lord will use the disturbance to help us on to a new stage of growth and new discoveries of His Delivering Power!

Lynette and James,

I picture you lifting Sydney on your wings, comforting her through her pain, your family comforting you and giving you strength for the day, and all of us out here praying for all of you to be held up by God's great eagle wings.

We are all growing in faith and love through your love of the Lord and steadfast faithfulness.

We love you, Susan, Kyle, Zach, Scott and Michelle

James and Lynette, My prayers are with you and Sydney. We are praying for deliverance for you from this cancer! This morning I read 1 Cor. 12:7 "Each person is given something to do that shows who God is." Clearly, He is using you to show His love and presence. I am always encouraged by your faithfulness and know that you must be an encouragement to other patients and families fighting this same battle. Continue to be strong - God is with you, this is His!

"That's what Immanuel means. the prophet Isaiah foretold Jesus' birth and said He would be called Immanuel nad Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. No longer would we walk through life alone with God watching us from a distance; Jesus' birth, life, death and resurrection eliminated the barrier of sin and death and brought God to us - and us to God. In our darkest hours, in our sadest moments, when fear and violence and loneliness seem to rule the planet, let us take comfort that we are not alone. Immanuel. God with us."
