Jona had a rough night; finding a comfortable position is becoming increasingly difficult, and breathing is a constant struggle...
He asked his dad to pray with him throughout the night last night. Earlier this morning, he spontaneously prayed out loud, asking God to comfort his family, to give him peace, praying for another day with his family and asking that if any of the family do not know Christ they would come to Him...
I mentioned in the note last night that I have never heard Jona complain about anything – big or small – in this situation. His dad, who spent countless (often excruciating) hours at the hospital with him, gives the same testimony.
What an amazing work of grace God is doing in our sweet Jona's heart!

Praying for this dear boy...and all his loved ones.
We are praying!!
The Lord can only trust certain people to carry such a heavy load. Thank you for your faithfulness to HIM. We continue to pray for the entire family.
Jona was my sixth grade student, and I'm praying for him every day. Thank-you for keeping us updated. If you talk to him soon, could you let him know that his sixth grade teacher is encouraged by his testimony? Thanks.
We continue to pray for this amazing young man...so steadfast in his faith in such a time. He shows forth such an amazing testimony. The Hopkins
I am praying for Jona and for his family. I miss his smiling face when he would come to the junior high to visit. He is such an encouragement to me. Thank you Jona. Love to you. Mrs. Morgan

Though we have never met, we have been praying for all of you. It sure puts life in perspective when looking at "successful" young people today, who have no hope in eternity.
Seguimos orando por Jona y toda la familia, por la misericordia y fortaleza del Señor junto a ustedes, Besos, Teresa.-
