We went to see Chris last weekend, I hadn't seen him since he left last October. He is doing so good. His voice is back to normal, and he's gone back to work. He is working for the same company that he was working for before the accident.
But he's also engaged to get married. He's marrying his high school sweetheart. They have dated for about four years other than for a few months before the wreck. She had broke up with him because of the lifestyle he was living. She has a four-year old son (Tyler) that Chris loves as if he was his own.
So we know he is staying off the drugs or she would never have agreed to marry him. They're hoping to get married this summer at the beach in Savannah. We've hinted that maybe they could get married at our church since Chris attended while he was here with us.
We're also still praying for his salvation. He has such a testimony that God could use to turn other teen-agers lives around.
But it will happen one day. God didn't spare his life for nothing. But thankfully it has gotten him off the drugs that he was on, and he and his Dad has become really close through it all.
What awesome news! Isn't it amazing how God works through what seem like such horrible circumstances?
