I admitted Debbie to the hospital on Sunday morning. She was dehydrated from not being able to hold any thing down and she has had this awful pain in her side.
She is scheduled to begin another round of chemo therapy today.
The doctors are running tests in their attempts to discover what is causing the pain in her side and the nausea. Please pray for the pain and nausea to disappear.
Our circumstances do not look good at this point. I will not go into any detail. It is difficult to hope for what you desire from God when every circumstance seems to be leading to a different result.
Moses saw the red sea and pharaoh’s army. Israel saw the giants in the land of Canaan. Gideon saw the size and strength of his enemies. David often speaks about being surrounded by his enemies and the enemies of Israel. Paul faced unbelievable odds that could have kept him from fulfilling his mission.
We have found that you can either just accept whatever your circumstances say is going to happen or you can put your hope in God knowing He has the power and authority to change your circumstances. Debbie has chosen to put her hope in God and ask Him to change her circumstances. So every day many times a day she comes before his throne, praising Him for who He is and offering Him her requests.
And instead of just waiting on the results that would be reasonable to accept, she waits on God to perform a miracle. She has seen many miracles during her life time. And she would tell you that the greatest miracle has been how Jesus Christ saved her from sin and changed her heart, her attitudes, her words, her motives, and her actions. She would tell you about our nearly 30 years of marriage and her love for being a mother of eight children. She would tell you about her purpose for life and the abundant life that she has known because Jesus changed her. What a miracle!
And now she waits for another one. Please pray with us for this miracle!
