Last night Kevin was released from the hospital and is doing well. I am keeping him in my apartment with me so that I can keep a close eye on him for a few days. He still seems a little weak, but is definitely improving. This morning while I was feeding him breakfast he was smiling and, as always, trying to grab the spoon and stick his fingers in his food=) I am so thankful for this time that I have with Kevin. He somehow brings peace into my hectic day. I think when I am with him and I watch him take his time to swallow his food or scratch his little nose, it reminds me to relax and take the day one moment at a time. It’s so easy to rush through our day trying to get as much done as possible and God wants us to be productive, right? I think God does want us to be productive (Prov. 6:6-11), but as we complete these tasks throughout the day, we have to remember that it’s not about what we are doing, but with what attitude we are doing it. We can use all these tasks as worship to God if we are doing it through Him (Romans 12:1). Am I glorifying God in my work? In my family? In my ministry? So, this is what Kevin taught me this morning. Thanks for all your prayers. God definitely has his hand on Kevin’s life. We are trying to come up with a plan so that he can receive more one on one care. As many of you know Dan and Christine Boyle are in the long process of adopting Kevin. They are an amazing couple who love Kevin so much. Please pray for this process as we really have no time frame as to when it may be finalized. Pray for Kevin, pray for the Boyle’s, and pray for the Love and Hope family as we all wait and prepare for Kevin’s adoption. This picture was taken on Saturday at the hospital and the other one was taken this morning during breakfast.
