"The only real truth in this world is the Word of God, and IT takes precedence above experiences, opinions, or doctrines." - M. Brazee

Cody and I have been so blessed by God and His people these past couple days. I wish I could just post all the incredible emails we've received. Wow, it's so encouraging and so humbling to hear of all the people, literally all over the world, that God is raising up to pray for us.

We are not discouraged, devistated, or defeated. God's word is more real than anything we perceive to be real in our lives. He is not a man that He should lie; He is good for His promises.

Our church in Redwood City, Peninsula Christian Center, held a gathering last night for all the intercessors and warriors to come together on Cody's behalf. It was amazing to see how many showed up. Cody's mom and sisters were there too.

In the midst of the storm, we continue to walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, it's hard and no, it's not always easy - but we can literally feel the grace of God surrounding us.

Last night at the meeting, I sat on the floor wondering "should I be crying?"... "should I be upset?" I can't explain the peace of God that has enveloped both of our hearts. I don't think I could cry if I tried. But that's not to say that I won't have a melt down later.

You'll be hearing from Cody real soon, in the meantime.... don't let man dictate your destiny!!

Hi Cody and Amy,
I haven't met you yet Amy, but I knew Cody when he was a little guy at Neighborhood Church and my husband, Jeff, and I were the Assistant Pastors. I just wanted to let you know that everyone at our church at Jesus Christ Fellowship is praying for you and believing for the miracle.

I had an interesting dream last night and this morning I couldn't really figure out what it was about, but I think it may be for you Cody. So I hunted down your blog so that I could tell you my dream. I am a dreamer and God speaks to me through dreams. Usually, the dreams are for me, but occasionally, the dreams are for me to tell others. Take a look and see what you think. Only you will know for sure if this is for you, from God, through me.

In the dream I was told that I had cancer and that I was going to die shortly. The doctor gave me a pill that I was to take to help me die without pain. I didn't want to take it and I didn't want to die. I went to our assistant pastor, Hank Lescher, and asked him what to do. (Hank is a total Word of Faith guy!) We decided not to believe the doctor's report and I declared that I would not take the pill and that I was believing I was healed. I instantly felt completely healthy and went out to eat lunch with friends and family. I felt perfectly fine. One of my family members, (my Uncle Nick who is a medical doctor) didn't believe that I had been healed and tried to help me with my tray of food. I remember thinking, "Wow, what if he is right and I am not really healed. I quickly realized that I couldn't go there in my thoughts and that I needed to stay with people who had the faith for my healing, so that their unbelief would not cause me to waiver in my faith. In the end...I was healed and cancer free by a miracle of God.

I hope that there is some truth in this odd dream that can encourage you. God loves you very much Cody and I know that there is a purpose for you in Christ Jesus. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plan to prosper you and not to harm you, but to give you a hope and I future." Jer 29:11

I know that is our Daddy's plan for you. I shall keep you in prayer and believe for a total healing. After that dream, I have total faith for it. Amy, you sound like an awesome wife! I look forward to meeting you at some point.

Please say hello to your mom and sisters. God bless you both. Love in Christ, Laurie Daly
