Eve of Fasting: Praise God!

It is the eve of our united day of fasting and prayer for Adam. We will follow a slightly different format, this week.

We are going to focus on simply praising and worshiping God. While it has been a difficult journey, it has been three months since Adam's accident. We have prayed, pleaded, and cried out to God for Adam's healing. We have asked God why He has not healed Adam. We have grown weary, and we have doubted. Now it is time to praise Him. Let's praise Him for keeping Adam alive and for the impact that the past three months have had the lives of so many people, including me.

Let's celebrate three months of life by spending the next 24-36 hours singing praises to God. Let's begin, this evening, by "falling down at the feet of Jesus."

We fall down

We lay our crowns

At the feet of Jesus

The greatness of

Your Mercy and love

At the feet of Jesus

And we cry holy, holy, holy

And we cry holy, holy, holy

And we cry holy, holy, holy

John 12:3-8

Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, "Why wasn't this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year's wages." 6He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.

"Leave her alone," Jesus replied. " It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. 8You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me."
