30God is so good. I’m sitting here in the family waiting room at the hospital, bleary-eyed and weary, but thanking him for saving my husband’s life tonight. Gabe had a heart attack earlier this evening, but he’s going to be okay.
I don’t know any technical terms, but he had a blockage in his most important artery, and while it’s often called a widow-maker, they got to it in time and put a stent in, and he’s going to be okay.
Please pray for his continued recovery and strength for me as I help care for him in the days to come. We’ll be in the hospital at least through Tuesday.
I’m blown away tonight by God’s goodness and the amazing family we have at Sanctuary Columbus Church. Thank you, Jesus.





Girl…this is the second freak heart attack I heard of this weekend! The other was a girl I used to babysit! (She’s now 32). My goodness!!!
My heart goes out to you and your hubby. I will be praying for him (and you) and will be standing with the many others in faith that he will fully recover.
Blessings,
Sandy
My prayers go out to Gabe and your family. I also learned about this through the Moms2Moms page at Northwest Bible and have been blessed by your books and speaking engagements. I have prayed for healing, peace, and strong minds of the medical team helping.
Praying for you and your family.
Praying for you & your family! Sorry to hear about Gabe’s heart attack but so glad that God saw fit to save his life & heal him!!
Praying for you and your family Marla.
Marla, I will be praying for your family. I read about Gabe on the Northwest Bible Church Moms2Moms facebook page. I gasped out loud…so shocked. Just this morning in his sermon, our pastor mentioned how sometimes people are spared because God has amazing things planned for them. I believe that for your family, Cambodia is part of that. I am also thankful that you have an amazing faith and trust in God to heal Gabe and get you through this!
praying for your guys – i can’t imagine how scary that was! hoping for a quick recovery and gabe to be back at home as soon as he can!!
Oh Marla – I am praying for you guys!!!!!
Praying for strength for you and your family. Here’s to a speedy recovery!
I am praying that God will completely heal and restore and work all things together for good!
Oh goodness! I am shocked by this news but thankful Gabe is okay. My first thought is how this will affect your Cambodia plans… but thankful that we know God is WAY in control over all that has happened and will happen. I am so, so thankful that Gabe survived and is recovering, but praying still that God would be at work in the road ahead.
Praying for you, Marla.
Praising God that the medical personal acted to quickly! Praying for a steady recovery and tons of strength and encouragement from God! Praying for the girls as well!
Praying!!! As a nurse, and as a wife of someone at risk for this (we’ve had more than one serious scare), I totally understand your situation. Please, Lord, bring peace and wholeness to Marla and Gabe. We praise you that the doctors got to the blockage so fast and got that stent in! Continue to heal and infuse them with hope and healing! In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!
Oh my goodness! I am so sorry this happened, but with Danielle, I’m so thankful you were here and not already in Cambodia! Praying for you all today and in the days to come, and thanking God for His goodness and mercy.
Oh, Marla! Praying for you guys and hoping for a quick recovery. Thanking God for the wisdom of our medical professionals.
Praying for you and your hubby, Marla. Got word through the WordServe FB page. Honored to stand with so many in prayer for you and your family.
