re: Halleluah

Randall, Teri, Elizabeth & Joseph, Halleluah!! I was at convention and was able to meet Robin, her husband and Jan. That was on Wednesday and how wonderful to meet these beautiful people that have been there for you all. Jan told me that she played rummy with you Randall. And also shared that you should be going "home" very soon. And yes indeed you are. Such a tremendous relief for you to be striving so well on healing. More beautiful people, your neighbors, taking you in while your home is "remodeled". By the time you all move back home it will be a brand new beginning in so many ways. And you will be totally well and Teri, you will be nourishing Randall with your loving meals and your loving spirit. What a celebration Thanksgiving will be for you. It is such an absolutely continual blessing of all that our Father is providing for you. I look forward to the next time I see you all to get the hugs I did not reach out enough for. Praise the Lord for He is Great, and He carries us when we are weak and He surrounds us with all we need. Love you all and my prayers reach out to you every day. Jonell Elder

hooray!

Dear Teri, Randall, Elizabeth and Joseph, Our hearts are overjoyed! We feel a true miracle has happened to us all. Today Gene and Stevie were out on the golf course and they received a phone call from Randall! He sounded wonderful. We have been thinking of you and praying for you every day, and sending our love, and now we are full of tears of happiness.We wish we lived closer. We'll be there again as soon as we can. Love, Cindy, Gene, Kari, Doug, Steve, Jeff, Tricia, Gavin and Wade!

GREAT JOB RANDALL!

Wow! Every time I read an update on Randall the news just keeps getting better! Randall, we're so proud of you and so excited about your progress! Teri's faith has really shone and influenced so many people. We've prayed daily that we will get you back 100% and have missed you terribly. Your experience has given us all a renewed faith in our heavenly Father, and also the miracles of his gift of oils by blessing Gary Young with knowledge of the many secrets of this earth. God is so good!

The light at the end of this tunnel is very bright and close by. We love you all deeply and are very excited to see you!!!

Randall

Dear Teri,

I am part of Cezanna's Dream Catcher group-I met you at her convention ceremony in 2006 in Salt Lake City-I had miraculously made it to convention after an emergency Gall bladder/liver surgery I had just had. Since that time, my faith in Young Living and in God opened up like the most beautiful flower that has ever bloomed and continues to be so. I remember that you annointed each of us with frankencense and will never forget your words-you did not know me, but you mentioned that I would be playing beautiful music, and music is what I have always known and is a deep part of me. though I had quite playing cello for 10 years in to raise my daughter and be a full time mom. It was special to me that you mentioned music because I had inclings of wanting to play again. I also rememeber when you first met Randall you sent an e-mail saying that he was a flutist-and my Mom, (who is still living) used to be a fabulous flute player. And that you were so blessed to have met him, as I had recently been through a separation and these words were very encouraging to me at that time-that it is possible to continue on after divorce.

When I heard about Randall's incident, I sent prayers, as I too, fell, last winter, and on my face, emergency room etc...and while I was recovering, was once again, was reminded of the power and miracles in Young Living Essential Oils. At a recomendation Hasso had made, I put lot's of francinsence on my head, and I also used, from my own research, helichrysm, lavendar and cypress on my face for healing the wounds.

Since I just read your blog, I simply wanted to respond to your comment about the verse you mentioned-"His yoke is easy and his burden is light" perhaps you already know this, but this one of the pieces in Handel's magnificent work, the "Messiah." I am singing the tune right now in my head and thinking of you and hoping that you might listen and/or play this piece from the Messiah, for Randall and your family. music, has always been a great healer in my life and I hope it can be in yours and Randall's in this case, too. I am sure there you could look this up on you Tube or perhaps you even have a copy of this in your home. Blessings to you on your journey with Randall-may you both continue to share strength and peace and music in your ever deepening relationship...and may the miracles continue to pour through...

love,

shelley

Thank you

Dear Randall, Teri, Elizabeth & Joseph, Thank you Teri for expressing how it is that you are so faithful to God. Your strength is amazing and your faith is unwavering. I have had times in my life of heartache and questions to God and why my prayers were not being answered. I have been angry at God a few times in my life.. But I know He understands and forgives. My prayers were answered, just at the time, not soon enough. I will pray for you Randall to KNOW and feel deep within your soul, you ARE worthy and so very loved and so very loving. I pray for you to feel peace within and for your body and mind to be well. Love you all Jonell Elder

Our Prayers are With YOU!!! We miss Randall...

Dear Randall, Teri, Elizabeth & Joseph:

Today when I called and spoke to Randy, Randall’s new assistant, my breath was taken away! I often call to check on my spiritual brother Randall and we share our lives and dreams together. Although you may know little about me, I know much about your family, your wonderful and beautiful marriage of love to each other and God, Elizabeth’s journey thru Europe, to college and her blessed gift of voice/music, Joseph’s basketball games and Randall’s persistence to help coach and much, much more…

Randall and I met about 9 years ago through the glass industry and a mutual friend. God put us in each other’s path, it was destined for us to become true friends and share fellowship and life as we both have experienced great change in the past years together. His sight of life and what each day means and brings is incredibly positive. As his brother in the Lord, I am saddened at the pain and challenge he has had to face, and you by ever enduring by his side Teri, however we both know God never brings anything into our lives that he is not right there beside us to comfort, teach and heal beyond comprehension of our earthly understanding. He teaches us that when faced with struggles and testing times we are to look towards Him and simply ask for his help, strength and everlasting love. I was even more surprised when I heard about the awful disaster of water damage at the house. Beyond all this, God is there with you Teri and the children too. His triumph will overcome these frustrating moments and soon you will look back and see great wisdom you have gained in all of these unforeseen and unpredictable experiences.

Suzan (my wife) and I will be in reverent prayer for Randall, you, Elizabeth and Joseph to bless you, spiritual and physical healing and most of all strength. Even though we are not there, please let Randall know I am by my brother’s side, as Christ I will be there to pick him up and help him take the steps to recovery he is so anxious to achieve. I truly believe in my heart, knowing Randall and you thru his words, God has tremendous plans for you both and no one can imagine how he will use this time and what you are drawing from this experience.

Randall is like the brother I never had. Humility comes to mind in thinking about this unfortunate accident. I say this from a positive view, as Randall is extremely intelligent, creative, intuitive and analytical and I know he is frustrated, impatient yet determined to overcome the results of such an injury. Sometimes The Lord brings us back to a childlike stage to remind us how much He loves us, like a simple minded child and help us see the purity His spirit will deliver. I laugh knowing what you must be faced with when he becomes a bit difficult, because anyone who knows Randall well, knows his sharp mind and tongue can move quickly with sarcastic bliss. I laughed out loud today when Randy told me how Randall told the Physical Therapist to focus! Ha! Ha! Yep, that’s my brother Randall. But he/she only knew, he meant it with love and kindness. I can reflect his words; “Get me the heck out of here before I grow old and stupid”, right?

Well Teri, please forgive me for rattling on…tell Randall we love him and your family too, a day at a time, one foot in front of the other, in His steps and soon we will once again fellowship and laugh with blissful joy. If all else fells, tell him to just straighten up and get over it! He should be happy, God gave him some more time to create and share more stories, now that’s a miracle.

Blessings of Joy,

Bill & Suzan Manson

Randall's Wonderful Progress

Dear Teri, Randall and Family,

I am so very pleased to hear of Randall's progress. and so overwhelmingly sorry to hear of your home disaster. The incidents that have occurred in your life the last few months just show us the unpredictability and fragility of life. They teach us that we must always be grateful for our blessings and take nothing for granted. But those same incidents also show us the truly amazing blessing of the faith, family and friends that get us through those difficult times. The Seacrests are genuinely blessed with faith, family, friends and great personal strength. And so, in the midst of all of these immense challenges, there is still much for which to be thankful.

I will continue to follow Randalls progress on your blog, and pray that it is as rapid and painless as is possible.

With many Blessings,

Su-z Heimann

re: Love & Prayers

Randall, Teri, Elizabeth & Joseph, Every morning and every night you all are the first on my prayer list to our Father. We all may have heard that God would not put into our laps more then we can take. Oh, but what you all are being dealt, is so heart wrenching. The tears are just something that are overflowing right now for you. I am so sorry for all that is happening. But thankfully you are surrounded by your "helpers" your Angels, that God is continually sending to you. My prayers for Randall are for healing, physically and mentally, for strong healthy lungs, to swallow on his own and for strength, and to feel happiness and to be free of the anger he is going through right now. My prayers for you Teri are for good health, continual strength, for peace, in knowing that God will provide what is needed for all to be better. To know that this better time will arrive. And for your continued faith and belief all WILL be well. My prayers are also for your friends and family that are helping in all ways possible. And for Elizabeth and Joseph to not be stressed or to worry too much. For understanding that God will make it all better. We all have hard times come our way, and to have our faith is a huge help. And to also give thanks for all else that is good. Randall IS going to be totally well again. The love you share is wonderful. Elizabeth and Joseph are your lights and future. The blessings of friends, family and the excellent care being provided for Randall. And YES what an excellent idea to start a medical fund!! I know that you would be amazed at how so many others will be able to help you in this area!! A little bit from many would start flowing in and it would keep growing. So many of us are unable to actually be near you to help out in other ways and this would be one way that we could. I look forward to hearing more when this is set up. You my dear lady, I am so grateful to of had some time with you on the farm. I was so moved by your warmth. The beauty of your being, your soul, shines out to us. And the love that you have for Randall, Joseph & Elizabeth is very apparent. It is very easy for me to understand why so many people are there to help. And more keep coming. You are very caring, sincere and take time for people. And to be gracious to those who are willing and able to help, that is a wonderful quality too. (And of course that is part of your being). Some people have a hard time accepting help.... Anyway, to you all, know that my love for you just keeps on growing every day and I look up to you in awe, with respect and admiration. I read the following somewhere and thought you might like to read it; May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us. Jonell Elder

greetings from your Chaparral family

Randall and Teri,

The prayers of Chaparral have been with you through this “Valley of the shadow.” There’s no denying that it’s a very real shadow. There’s also the promise that it is ONLY a shadow, and that God’s Son shines brightly all around. It’s His light that breaks through. People ask about you every week, Randall. The blog is a wonderful communication means. I called once early on, and realized you all are being smothered in calls. We’re still smothering you in prayers and love. God is at work.

The congregation approved moving ahead with the Prayer Garden, and bids for its construction will be coming in about 2 weeks. There are places designated for works of art by Randall. Without fail your drawings of the wind harp are met with the sound of the intake of breath. I believe that’s called “taking our breath away.” We look forward to moving ahead with these projects as soon as you are able. In God’s time.

May God hold you all in His unfailing hands.

Love,

Larry Hostetler and your Chaparral family

Bill Boice Garden Update

Dear Teri and Randall,

The Bill Boice Memorial Prayer Garden is off and running. On August 30^th the Chaparral Christian Church Board unanimously approved the plan. This past Friday we had 5 potential bidders walk the site, and bids are due 9/15. The plans reserve a place for Randall’s glorious Aeolian harp and healing fountain. Appropriate utilities will be placed, so all will be ready when Randall is able to complete this project. We showed a picture of the model of the harp and Marion Hostetler helped explain how the wind will play the harp. All present were enthralled.

Teri, as I read today’s entry I continue to marvel at your strength. May God bless you, Randall and your families.

Terri Please Read

Terri,

First let me say how thankful I am that Randall is doing better. If I may also be transparent on my feelings.....there was a time I thought Randall was headed for life support. I thought things were headed to one of life's most difficult decisions. I was shaken and restless to my core. Today I can breath easier knowing a husband will come home, a friend will once again call and a neighbor will once again wave hello.

I have heard about the continued misfortune in your lives. A stark contrast from one year ago when we had dinner parties and Halloween and fellowship. It seem just the other day you were introducing me to your place and showing me that beautiful house. Again, I am saddened and feel somewhat helpless in these matters. Helpless is an emotion very foreign to me since 70% of my life I fix, patch, heal, help or console others. I am comfortable in crisis but not now. I feel like the network around you is so strong that I have chosen to (for lack of a better term) keep my distance and allow time to heal. I have chosen not to see Randall because of my familiarity with his type of injury and the sensory overload that too much "stuff" can cause. No where near the sevarity, but my several concussions had me in a state of wanting quiet time and a "leave me be" state. It is out of LOVE for the both of you that I have not been too much of a present factor.

However, I feel compelled in my heart of hearts to make you an unconditional offer. I would like to offer you and your family the entire top floor of my house.Randall and you would never deal with stairs. I will build a wheelchair ramp to my front door. I have the tools and wood is cheap. Rent/ worry free. Master bed/bath, Guest rooms (2) and guest bath. As you may or may not know, the older tenants had a handicapped family member. My shower is tiled out with a completely flat floor. No steps. Also it is equipped with stainless steel hold handles and a built in seat. A removable shower head will ease in bathing. Also Randall can come home to a place familiar to him....heck, Randall and I watched cheech and chong in my basement!!!!

As many may come and go as they please.As many may stay.Move as much furniture in as you please. We are young with no kids and very limited obligations. Our lifestyle at this stage is very flexible. My job being the exception. We(Amanda and I) have a very comfortable basement with private bedroom and bath to stay in. We have a separate unfinished "dog room" for our dearly loved dogs to stay in. I ask nothing in return, I ask no sort of compensation ....except to be of service.

Respectfully, Your Friend and Neighbor,

Gary Vaughn

Sending You Love

Dear Teri & Family,

We just recently heard from Joan Marchesani about Randall's accident.

You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. I saw your blog today and marvel at your Holy Spirit strength and conviction....what an example you truly are! I know this journey did not take God by surprize and that He holds you in the palm of His hand.

Rod & I just came out of a personal desert and marvel at God's faithfulness. When we're in the middle of a fire it seems like it will never end. I kept telling myself: "This, too, shall pass"....and by golly, it did! You and Randall will come out of this bigger and better than ever. Look out, Satan....you're toast!

God will meet all of your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Please give me your number or address and let me know what I can do for you....pick up your son, fix dinner etc. I know you probably won't ask for help....that's why I need your contact info.

You and Randall so blessed us as complete strangers at your Christmas party. You were so gracious, loving, kind, and fun! You two are awesome and you belong to God....you are His kids.

We love you and look forward to the great things God has in store for you....even through this trying time. One day, moment, thought at a time.

I'll keep up on your blog which I saw for the first time tonight and wait until it's a good time to visit Randall.

Meanwhile, be still and know that He is God.

God bless you with peace & joy in believing,

Rod & Deb Howe
