God’s Faithfulness
It has been amazing to look back on the past month and see God’s faithfulness. Remembering the initial phone call, rushing to USC, arriving at the ER not knowing Kev’s status, first seeing him before surgery – covered in blood and in shock - shaking uncontrollably, then waiting and praying throughout the 12 hour surgery, it’s incredible to see the countless ways the Lord has sovereignely orchestrated so many things.
While there are still so many unknowns in our lives now, it’s just a huge blessing to know that I can walk through them with Kev. It is such a miracle that he is even alive, has full brain function, is able to speak and has use of his upper body. We are of course praying for full healing and restoration of his lower body, but have been astounded by what God has already done. We truly can’t thank everyone enough for the numerous ways you have sacrificially given of your time and resources to bless and support us. Words don’t even come close to expressing how thankful and overwhelmed we are by everyone’s kindness, generosity, and willingness to help in any possible way.
Even though we clearly have a long road ahead, we have definitely begun to learn that God’s grace is enough and His strength is perfected in our weakness. Thank you again for your continued prayers – it is truly amazing knowing that every day there are countless people lifting Kev up in prayer. We serve a powerful God and it will be interesting to see what He has in store for us.

Dear Kevin and Tiffany: My heart is united with yours in amazement and thanksgiving for what God has done and is doing in you both. Both of your messages reflect your great faith in our Creator and glorify His Name. Marvelous things He has done and is doing daily in the lives of all of those who trust in Him!
“He divided the sea, He made the waters stand up like a heap, He led His nation with the cloud and a light of fire, He split the rocks in the wilderness, He also brought streams out of the rock and cause waters to run down like rivers.” Ps. 73

Tiffany,
Your example of actively trusting God, hoping in Him and being thankful for His faithfulness in the midst of this entire ordeal continues to encourage me (and the entire Body of Christ). We join you in praying for full restoration of Kev’s lower body while we celebrate the miracle of his life. I love seeing how deeply you love one another and walk in His grace.
