Praise Report & Update
Last week I was having some breathing difficulty as well as some pain in my should blade area. This continued for 3 days and finally I decided to see if I could get some relief. I went to the Cape Fear Clinic and checked in with the receptionist. As I waited to be seen by the medical doctor, Terry Johnson calls me just to say hi and chat about ministry in general. I told him of my situation and without hesitaion Terry prayed for my healing. As he finished praying, they called me into the exam room.
They took my vital signs and then stuck me in the "lonely cold" room for what seemed like hours. Finally the doctor shows up and asks me about my problem. She asks where it hurts...and I told her where it was hurting. She asked me to gauge the pain 1-5 with 5 being the worst. Well.....right now I would have to say its a .....zero? She asks, "when does it hurt the most?" and I tell her when I am getting in and out of bed as well as getting into cars. She then asks me to lay down and then get up so I can show her where the pain is coming from.
So....here I was trying to duplicate a pain that was no longer there....twisting and turning and lying down and getting up....but no pain : ) The doctor probably thinks I'm crazy but thats ok....I know the deal. God healed me!
I made the best of the situation and had her renew my BP medications....
When I shared the story with Terry his reply was "now we need to do something about that blood pressure!!!" Amen.....I'm believing for it!!
Short Update:
I'm heading to the Philippines for a couple of weeks. Please pray for my safe travel, good health and a fruitful mission. I will be taking the Fairview Church based in Quezon City, Philippines on their first missions trip to Pampanga. We are bringing the praise team and plan on doing a feeding program as well as some children's ministry.
On the 26th of January, I plan on going to Cagayan de Oro and have a leadership meeting with OAIM pastors as well as start-up the micro-enterprise ministry. (I hope to post some video of this so stay tuned!!)
February: I will be filling in for Pastor Sam at the Church of Anderson Creek. I'm looking forward to spending time with the Anderson Creek family and help them jumpstart their outreach lifestyle : )
Thanks for your prayers!!!
