"Feeling Good"

When you ask dad how he's feeling....he'll tell you he's feeling good!  Which is GREAT news!  He continues to take medication for the blood clot in his leg and pain medication for the tumor in his hip.  On a scale of one to ten, his pain level these days is a 1-2.  We are so thankful for this.  In June, dad will have an ultrasound to see if the blood clot has healed and gone away.

On March 6th at 9:30 AM, dad will have an MRI of his brain.  We are praying for no tumors....please join us in this prayer request.   

The entire family is thankful for your many prayers and encouraging words. 

Speaking of encouraging words, here is a poem written for and about my dad in February 2010 by his son-in-law, JT.

God’s Favored Michael Grant

When God looks down for faithful men,
And searches sea and land,
He smiles when He looks upon
His favored Michael Grant.

For angels know the life he’s lived,
And the giants that he’s faced.
But no trial yet has shaken him,
Nor slowed him in his pace.

The work’s not done; there’s more to do.
God’s hand is on him still,
Moving men and mountains,
In service to His will.

It’s not for pride, nor for the crowd,
That might see and give a cheer.
It’s Christ in him and God’s applause,
That makes him persevere.

Mike simply lives to tell the world
Of how Jesus Christ came through.
As, in fact, He always does
For those who trust Him, too.

Commit your way to Christ,
And all your plans succeed.
Just as Michael Grant has done,
In heart and word and deed.
