Dinner

The desire for food may be strong, but it is time to push onward. I know that some of our "fellow fasters" have never met Adam. Talk about dedicated prayer warriors! You are amazing! Others are first-time fasters. I know it's difficult, but hang in there. Go to bed, early tonight, and morning will be here very soon! But first, we have more to do!


For those that know Adam, think about a time he did something generous.I remember one summer Saturday, he called our house and asked if Marina would like to go the Oregon State Fair with him. Sounds kind of generous, doesn't it? Keep in mind that Adam was probably 17 years old, and Marina was probably 13. She had only been his cousin for about two years as we adopted her from Kazan, Russia. Adam drove way out of his way to pick Marina up, then drove her back home after they attended the fair. What are the chances a teenage boy decides to go way out his way (I am talking about an extra hour, round trip) to take his younger cousin to the fair? One in a million? If so, Adam is that "one."


I am sure that many of you have pleasant memories about something Adam did. Right now, however, it hurts to think about Adam in his current condition. It is why it is reassuring to hear these words from Jeremy Camp.



Continue in your prayers, thanking God for His healing hands. In addtion to petitions for Adam's healing, ask God to provide safe travels for the Root family has they fly back and forth between North Carolina and the Pacific Northwest. Also, pray for each other, that we would remain strong through the remainder of the evening.

I will post again near 10:00 p.m. Eastern (7:00 Pacific).

Blessings
