Dinner: Don't Quit The Race.


If you are fasting with us, your stomach may be crying out for food. As many times as I have fasted, I am apprehensive about getting through a day without food. My advice is don't quit the fast! Likewise, Pastor Meeks has advice for anybody facing the hurdle of delay, which includes Adam's delayed healing:

3. Don't Quit the Race

Galatians 6:9

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

There is always a delay between the time when we sow, and when we harvest. With regard to praying for Adam's healing, we began sowing two years ago. Since we are praying for his full recovery, we have not yet reached the harvest. Yet, we are "watching the crop grow."


Adam has made such amazing progress. He was told he would never walk, yet he walks (his sign reads, "I was told I would never walk...WRONG!). Praise God! It is not yet a full recovery, but Adam has traveled a long way from the days immediately following his accident.

Do not give up. Continue to pray for Adam's full recovery.

Pray that:

• Adam would move beyond the phase of expressing anger at Amy
• Adam's cognition would improve
• The day will come when Amy will no longer have to care for Adam as a patient—only as a wife for a husband

1 Corinthians 9:24

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

Don't quit praying for Adam. Continue on until he reaches full recovery.

I will post one more time, this evening.
