With God ALL things are possible!
Teach us to number our days aright that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Teach us oh Lord to understand the length of our life,so that everyday is put to Glorifying and Pleasing you as a sweet aroma that we would recognize that everything we have is because of you,and nothing we do is because of us. We Bless you Father, In Jesus Precious Name.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise, give thanks to Him and praise His Name. Psalms 1oo
Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.
A psalm. For giving thanks. Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
With God ALL things are possible!

Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin.
God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
2 Corinthians 5:21
Romans 8:3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,
Daily what we are being shown is that we are "nothing" without the saving Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,there is nothing within our flesh that can save us or make us whole, only the Blood of Jesus, Who willingly sacrificed Himself for us, He is who gives us LIFE! eternal Life and it is not of our selves, but He who is our Greatest intercessor,advocate and Gift, the Healing Cleansing power of the Blood,His Precious Blood,
Ron and I today thank the Lord for this precious Gift of Life,it is Jesus who sustains us today right now So in all things we give thanks. Bless you all and may the Lord Jesus Christ Bless you abundantly in every part of your day in what ever you are doing,cling to the only Hope we have,Jesus,the Power of the Holy Spirit and God the Father who is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God is but a breathe away!

Lord you are good and your Mercies endure forever,A-Men
Grace and Peace to All from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ! We are so thankful for your Prayers and support,Ron woke up feeling great,and things moving the way they should through his digestive system,Praise the Lord!

John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
John 15:7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

We want to cover those in Prayer that have been Praying for Ron and I, in that your physical needs be met for those suffering with ailments and for those having Babies,that the Lord would protect the rest of your pregnancy until time for this baby to come into this world in Jesus Name,and for those suffering with treatments helping to get your bodies recovered from sickness. Bless them oh Lord sow into them what they have been sowing into us through Prayer in Jesus Name A-men
Ron had a rough morning,he had a small seizure,totally drained,please keep him close to your hearts in that his digestive system needs to work properly in all ways in moving out all the yuck that has built up in his system from all the changes in eating to medicinals, coming off the kepra etc.Pray that his strength would renew quickly and that he would start to have more energy.

Thankful for each day the Lord gives us.Having an attitude of Graditude.
With God ALL things are possible!Grace and Peace to All Saints from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ! It is Monday and the Lord is so good. We are so thankful for each day the Father has given us.
Ron has been doing good,we knew that when he went off the kepra he may have some seizures, he has had a few very mild ones not fully feeling the effects of seizures past.
In Place of the kepra he is taking Organic skullcap herb {scutellaria lateriflora}Scullcap "is tonic, nervine and anti-spasmodic,” and “it has proved especially useful in chorea, convulsions, tremors, intermittent fever, neuralgia, and many nervous affections. is also known to prevent the recurrence of seizure.
Oxy-e is another Body ph balancing formula,Oxy E creates oxygen in your cells plus acts as a free radical scavenger. Another important trait of Oxy E is its cleansing ability. The formula works to wash away toxins and lactic acid build up within cells.
This seems to be doing its job,without side effects. Ron and I know that it is only the Power of Pray that is ultimately the working power behind his days of feeling good and the rest is a resource to healthy healing.
Only the Lord knows what's taking place on His brain, we are thankful for each day he wakes up feeling good and having a good day. Family has been a good medicine in itself,
Thank you all for your continual prayers and support we love your encouragement .Bless you all. Love Ron and Sandie and Family, James 5:16b The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

Grace and Peace from God our Father and From the Lord Jesus Christ
With God ALL things are possible!
Grace and Peace from God our Father and From the Lord Jesus Christ
Grace and Peace to All Saints from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ! Today we wake up Praising the Lord Jesus for the strength and health of this day,yesterday was a good day the Abba Father gave Dad, He slept most of the day and woke up later in the afternoon feeling great. He did not take kepra yesterday because of the side effects and had "no seizure". Thank You Jesus.
the day before yesterday was a draining day for Dad sleeping most of the day and feeling very drugged and drained, from the kepra, his body has been detoxing ridding itself of many toxins, he is on a strict eating program for life,which is really good,and tasty,and healthy the way our Lord intended it to be from the beginning of time. Our Sons and Daughter in Love-have been a great encouragement in helping us with research and meal Ideas, It is all about fresh organic vegetables and as many raw foods, Dad has been taken all Natural medicinal medicines with no side effects, since Tuesday, and no seizures, Praise the Lord. We continue in all ways to Trust in the Lord and know that He has given us another day. We thank you for your Prayers, Love and Support, we choose to take one day at a time,and even one hour at a time,not looking to far ahead.
Matthew 6:27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
Matthew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
Psalms 55:22 Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.
Jesus we ask that you be bigger today and more beautiful in our Hearts, minds, and soul, we ask Holy Spirit that you would cause us to long more for the Person of Jesus Christ , you are more greater,wonderful,loving , beautiful, kinder than anything else in life,you are so trust worthy,and have always been so faithful,---when we have not,---you are always merciful even tho ---we do not deserve your mercy, ---your Word teaches us not to consider our lives more precious than the Person of Jesus Christ.We thank you ,we love you ,we Exalt you, we Glorify you, we Honor you,and Bless you oh Lord, we want only your Wisdom that is pure from heaven.
For we who are alive are always being given over to the death for Jesus sake, so that His life may be revealed in our mortal body.
Therefore we do not lose heart,Though outwardly we are wasting away,Yet inwardly we are being transformed. 2 Corinthians 4
Lord Jesus continue to do your work in us so that we may Glorify you in everything that we say and do, and that every area of our Life would reflect who you are. A-Men

What a friend we have in Jesus!
What a friend we can have in Jesus!
Do you know that truth to be yours? Is Jesus your friend?
Some trust in the strength of their own talents and abilities but those of us who truly know Jesus, soon realize that we have no strength outside of Him and in fact learn that, HE becomes our strength.
When all we've done and strived for comes up empty and meaningless, Jesus waits patiently for an invitation to move in and fill our lives with meaning and hope. He's only a prayer away.
What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.
Ron and Sandie have learned this truth and have been walking in this truth for some time. When the storm of cancer came they did not jump ship and try to find shelter on their own but instead realizing where their true hope comes from, fell on their faces before The Lord and cried out to Him "WE TRUST YOU PRINCE OF PEACE!" and are waiting until Jesus gets them to the other side.
Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness; take it to the Lord in prayer.
Ron and Sandie know what it means to have weakness. Their faith is being tested in ways that some of us might never experience and yet, God has been so faithful to comfort, encourage, give wisdom, direction and yes, STRENGTH to walk this journey step by step trusting Jesus Christ who is The Living Word to be the lamp to their feet and a light for their path. Psalm 119:105
Ron and Sandie hope and pray that each of us would KNOW JESUS CHRIST who was crucified for our sins, buried and is alive today and seated at the right hand of His Father praying for us that we would all be able to say:
What a friend we have in Jesus. He is the best friend I have ever known!

MY GOD IN WHOM I TRUST
Lord, today I am tired and I'm feeling all alone
Oh how I need Your strength for I'm weary to the bone
When my heart is overwhelmed and my future is unknown
Where else can I go but to You before Your throne
Here I kneel before my Maker as my tears wash my face
I am seeking You for Your mercy and I run into your embrace
I confess You are my refuge, my fortress in whom I trust
And how I am reminded that my frame is only but dust
You numbered my days before one of them came to be
Remind me Oh Lord of Your precious thoughts toward me
Search me Oh God and know my heart within
remove from me my anxious thoughts and cleanse me from any sin
My eyes are upon You Jesus, You are worthy of my praise
I wait in hope for You Lord, I trust You Ancient of Days.
Psalm 91:1-2
I will dwell in the shelter
of the Most High God,
I will rest in the shadow
of the Almighty.
I will SAY unto The Lord,
You are my refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust.
Psalm 139
Oh how I need Your strength for I'm weary to the bone
When my heart is overwhelmed and my future is unknown
Where else can I go but to You before Your throne
Here I kneel before my Maker as my tears wash my face
I am seeking You for Your mercy and I run into your embrace
I confess You are my refuge, my fortress in whom I trust
And how I am reminded that my frame is only but dust
You numbered my days before one of them came to be
Remind me Oh Lord of Your precious thoughts toward me
Search me Oh God and know my heart within
remove from me my anxious thoughts and cleanse me from any sin
My eyes are upon You Jesus, You are worthy of my praise
I wait in hope for You Lord, I trust You Ancient of Days.
Psalm 91:1-2
I will dwell in the shelter
of the Most High God,
I will rest in the shadow
of the Almighty.
I will SAY unto The Lord,
You are my refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust.

NO SEISURES TODAY!! PRAISE THE LORD!!
The Lord is so good!
Ron and Sandie talked with the doctor today. They asked specific questions and the doc was able to give them clear answers that gave them clarity which they felt was what they needed from The Lord.
The main question that was asked was "If we opt to not have the biopsy and pursue alternative medicine, when would be the recommended time for another MRI?" The doctor responded positively to the alternative meds being a reasonable option and would want to see Ron again in 3 months unless Ron began suffering with more symptoms before that.
The doctors concern over Ron is to watch for symptoms such as weakness on his left side of his body, numbness on his face, poor coordination, poor balance, etc.
PLEASE PRAY RON DOES NOT EXPERIENCE ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS.
PLEASE PRAY THAT JEHOVAH RAPHE (GOD OUR HEALER) CHOOSES TO MIRACULOUSLY HEAL RON.
NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR OUR GOD.
The doctor increased the Keppra med from 500mg to 1500mg which is a pretty big deal because once Ron is on Keppra he can't just decide to go off of it without being admitted into the hospital so they can ween him off. Otherwise a grand mall seizure would overtake his body and .... well, let's just avoid that whole scene if you don't mind! In fact, once he gets fool blown into Keppra, it becomes a medicine he'll need to take for the rest of his life for reasons stated above.
Ron and Sandie are trusting The Lord and continuing to ask Him for direction on the holistic meds and for their daily lives. Right now Ron is also taking high dosages of natural medicines so as you can see, they are doing everything they can and leaving the rest up to The Lord Almighty.
It's amazing to talk with both of them concerning this trial for their trust in The Lord is a huge witness to all who know them. These two saints are so full of Jesus that in the midst of the unknown they lift up HIS NAME in praise. I personally feel so honored to know them.
We bless you Ron and Sandie and we continue to place you before The Lord for God's comfort and ultimate healing in your lives in His time.
Now to the rest of us who are reading this:
Be encouraged church...The Lord is hearing and answering our prayers!
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and I am helped.
My heart leaps for joy
and I will give thanks to him in song.

THANK YOU JESUS--Sweet Answers to Prayer
The Peace of God has washed Ron and Sandie today and they are relieved from the anxiousness, fears and yes, even tears that they were experiencing earlier today. Keep praying saints! :)
Ron is having 2 seizures a day recently. Pray for protection over his mind, body, soul and spirit as he waits upon The Lord to heal him.
Ron chose to go on Keppra today which will discourage him from having grand mall seizures. Please pray he does not suffer with the following side effects that come with this:
*Suicidal thoughts
*Depression
*bloody noses
*solemness and more.
They are encouraged and they know it's because of our prayers!
Sleep well Ron and Sandie, we love you!
To God be The Glory!

Oh Lord, Give Us Your Wisdom, Clarity and Peace!
As I write this new post I am asking The Lord to speak to each of us from His Word what He would like to say to Ron and Sandie and how He would like to encourage them at this time through us. They have confessed that they love The Word of God and their hearts grow tender, encouraged and revived by His written word.
They're feelings of anxiety and the many questions come and go but The Word of God sustains them so, Word of God, Speak!
Would you please pray with us for wisdom, clarity and peace for Ron and Sandie right now? They will be speaking with the Doctor tomorrow at 3:00-3:30 asking direct questions concerning the procedure that is set for Thursday. If indeed the tumor cannot be removed, and they've decided in their hearts that radiation or chemo are not the way they want to go, then why the biopsy?
They are also looking into alternative medicine which, if you know them at all goes right along with their lifestyle of trying to eat as natural as possible.
Ron has had 5 seizures since Friday and although these have taken the steam out of him he is also very encouraged in The Lord as Reality Carpenteria (their home church in Santa Barbara) has bathed them with hands on love and prayer (THANK YOU CHURCH, BLESS YOU!). He was anointed with oil (James 5:14-16) this past weekend and although there have been no signs of healing, as of yet..., we are still praying that The Lord will miraculously heal you Ron! May God encourage you brother!
Jeremiah 17:14; 30:17 Oh Lord, Heal Ron and he will be healed. Save him and he will be saved. Restore health to him and heal his wounds.
Psalm 29:11 Oh Lord we pray that you will give strength to Ron and that You will bless Ron with peace.
Thank you for your continued support and prayers. They are invaluable!
With God ALL things are possible!
They're feelings of anxiety and the many questions come and go but The Word of God sustains them so, Word of God, Speak!
Would you please pray with us for wisdom, clarity and peace for Ron and Sandie right now? They will be speaking with the Doctor tomorrow at 3:00-3:30 asking direct questions concerning the procedure that is set for Thursday. If indeed the tumor cannot be removed, and they've decided in their hearts that radiation or chemo are not the way they want to go, then why the biopsy?
They are also looking into alternative medicine which, if you know them at all goes right along with their lifestyle of trying to eat as natural as possible.
Ron has had 5 seizures since Friday and although these have taken the steam out of him he is also very encouraged in The Lord as Reality Carpenteria (their home church in Santa Barbara) has bathed them with hands on love and prayer (THANK YOU CHURCH, BLESS YOU!). He was anointed with oil (James 5:14-16) this past weekend and although there have been no signs of healing, as of yet..., we are still praying that The Lord will miraculously heal you Ron! May God encourage you brother!
Jeremiah 17:14; 30:17 Oh Lord, Heal Ron and he will be healed. Save him and he will be saved. Restore health to him and heal his wounds.

GOD OF HOPE
Ron and Sandie,
May the GOD OF HOPE fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him; that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

Praying towards the biopsy on Thursday
I wanted to remind us that Ron will be going in this Thursday for his biopsy. Please pray for Ron and the family that:
**They would "not be anxious about anything" and that "the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard their hearts and their minds in Christ Jesus".
**The doctors would have skillful hands and wisdom in their every move while Ron undergoes the biopsy.
**That Ron would experience great peace before, during and after the biopsy and that no adverse reactions or infections would set in in Jesus Name!
I'll keep you posted as I hear more from the Cuellars.
Thank you for praying and caring.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
We know we can't do this without Jesus Christ' Spirit within us and filling us. May we all be filled with His Spirit today in order that we'd walk in obedience to His Word. He Is Worthy!

Inoperable Brain Tumor
Good evening friends and family!
The Cuellar family went to see the Neurosurgeon this morning and it has been confirmed that Ron has an inoperable brain tumor which means that it cannot be removed. The doctor is preparing Ron for a biopsy next Thursday to see if it's malignant or benign and to find out what kind of treatment should be done for it.
Right now he's calling this bad boy an Oligodendroglioma Tumor which I leave up to you to look up and find out more about it. We won't know for sure if this is an accurate assessment until he goes in and does the biopsy but the doctor seems to think it's likely.
The biopsy itself will leave a hole in Ron's head the size of a dime, maybe a bit smaller. The biopsy is also a bit dangerous as they could clip a blood vessel which of course leads to other complications....this is something the doctor has put out there in order that they know the risks Ron is facing.
They are told that this kind of tumor will respond well to Kemo which can strongly discourage it from growing any larger. If they were to try and remove the tumor it could end up paralysing Ron so they won't take that chance on him.
Ron has resigned himself that if this is not something that can be removed through surgery than he would rather not willingly further afflict himself with Kemo or radiation which causes some very undesirable side effects but instead just go on living his life as usual and enjoy the health that he is experiencing at this time outside of the small seizures he is troubled with.
They are encouraging Ron to take a preventative medicine called Keppra. Kepra would discourage Ron from having grand mall seizures which are inevitable without Keppra. If he has a grand mall seizure it will immediately lesson his quality of life as he knows it so this is a pretty big decision Ron is faced with making.
The side effects of Keppra are:
suicidal thoughts
depression
solemness
bloody noses, etc.
Obviously none of these side effects are too encouraging to think about.
Bless his heart!!
In spite of the bad news Ron and Sandie have received today they are able to continue to keep their faith strong in the Lord knowing that He is and always will be their Master Healer; we believe that this is in part because of the prayers of the saints. Thank you for caring about Ron and Sandie and for your prayers and support. It means so much to them.
Here are some areas that need immediate prayer:
**That Ron would not experience any negative side effects from the Keppra medication if he chooses to take it.
**That the doctors would have a steady hand and that Ron would be protected from any adverse reactions or problems from the biopsy coming up this next week.
**Ron and Sandie would continue to be strong in their faith and trust in the Lord and that they'd be protected from anxiety, fear or dread.
**That their whole family would be submerged within God's comfort and love and that this trial would draw them nearer together and into full agreement with The Lord.
You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you,
all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
Trust in the Lord always,
for the Lord God is the eternal Rock.
Isaiah 26:3-4
But as for me, the nearness of God is my good;
I have made the Lord God my refuge,
That I may tell of Thy works.
Psalm 73:28
Pray at all times and do not lose heart. Jesus

MRI RESULTS
You know, God never promised us that life would be easy, in fact, He said in
2 Timothy 3:12 that everyone who wants to live a godly life will be persecuted.
I'd say a tumor would fall into this category wouldn't you?
I'm reminded of Jesus' disciples who had just been rudely kicked out of town
and the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit, regardless.
How can this be? Because they had their eyes fixed on Jesus and not on their crisis; Where else can we go? He has the words of life!
So this is how Ron and Sandie talk today. We're darn proud of them, and
without a doubt, The Lord is too!
I talked with Sandie on the phone this morning and the diagnosis is that Ron
has a tumor the size of a golf ball on the right side of his brain.
The tumor sits in an area of his brain that effects the sensory but not the
vision or mobility which we are praising God for. If one has to have a tumor,
thank You Lord for allowing it to be where it isn't going to affect his motor skills. Hey, we're looking for ways to Praise The Lord here! :)
The Neurosurgeon will let them know in the morning how they are going to
tackel this badboy tumor, whether it will be a biopsy or to surgically remove it.
Ron is doing good in spite of some anxiousness that is, of course, our human nature. Both Ron and Sandie fall into their Father's arms and remind Him that "You know all things, You know the beginning and the end and we ask that You embrace Ron and make Your love known to him right now for, as You know, he could really use Your strength."
They hold tightly to these two scriptures today from the Word of God:
2 Corinthians 1:3-5 "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. "
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." AMEN!
Let's remember to keep Ronnie and Nathan in our prayers as well. The two sons have been such an encouragement to mom and dad and we pray that they experience the true love and hope that only Jesus can supply during this family's time of need.
Walk in great faith--Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.

MRI this morning, results tomorrow morning at 8:00am
Ron was given an MRI this morning and tomorrow morning at 8:00 the results will determine what steps need to be taken from here. The Neroligist told them that he is listing this as very serious until he sees the results for himself in the morning. They were told to expect a biopsy or ? depending on what they find.
So, we're in the woods with our brother Ron and we praise God that HE is the lamp unto our feet and the light unto our path. Psalm 119:105
With God ALL things are possible!

This blog is a work in progress
Thank you for your patience as I work on learning how to allow others to leave comments for Sandie and Ron. In the meantime I'll continue updating you as I receive the updates and hopefully before too long you'll all be able to post your thoughts and prayers. :)

PRAY FOR RON CUELLAR
Grace and Peace to you in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
Sandie and Ron were in a prayer meeting a couple of weeks ago when Ron began experiencing an inability to speak. Sandie took him to the hospital and the doctors began taking tests to try and find out what Ron had suffered from and why.
Soon after, the doctors found a mass in Ron's brain and they have been doing tests to see what exactly the mass is and how to go about treating Ron.
Despite the setback that Ron has faced, he is doing well and in fact Sandie says, "He looks like he could run a marathon!"
This past week they have traveled from Friday Harbor to Santa Barbara to take care of some business and meet with doctors in their own home town. For now they will stay in Santa Barbara until they find out what The Lord's will is which will determine their next step.
One day at at time!
This morning Ron and Sandie are in the neurologists office to hear from the doctors what they're reports have revealed.
Please pray with us for:
*a miracle of complete healing and that Sandie and Ron grow old together in Jesus Name
*great wisdom and discernment for the doctors as they advise Sandie and Ron in this hour
*God to be glorified in and through Sandie and Ron as they continue trusting and resting in Him, their God of hope. Rom. 15:13
Nothing is impossible with our God!
