Webster defines FAITH as "belief and trust in and loyalty to God, complete confidence, without doubt"

Matthew 17: 19-21 says, "if you have FAITH as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Well, Carly is moving mountains -- her FAITH is an inspiration to all of us. 

And Our Lord is rewarding that FAITH; the tumor in her Lymph Node is obviously shrinking and she has made it through the First Round of Chemotherapy with very few side effects.  Yes, she is starting to lose her hair, but even this visible sign of her struggle hasn't shaken her FAITH. 

She told me the other morning she enjoys listening to Kerrie Roberts' "No Matter What" on her drive into school each day -- in the event you haven't heard this song, I have attached a link.  If you are like me, when you hear this song in the context of what she is going through, it will bring tears to your eyes:

I can't thank you enough for the many prayers you have offered up for Carly. The support we have received from friends and family is humbling.  As Carly starts her Second Round of treatment next Tuesday, I ask you for your continued prayers as she resumes her battle.

Much love, Brad
