I was reminded once again of His great mercies, love and compassion for my family. David was invited by his dear pastor friend to share his testimony at his church on 29Jun. David took on the "assignment" with great enthusiasm and devoted himself much to the preparation, to the extent of working late into the night for several days. He treasured every opportunity to testify about God's goodness in the midst of his pain and suffering. I, on the other hand, was more concerned with the effects of the late nights on his health. How little faith I have... I realized I should trust the Lord and see from His perspective. Surely He will equip and provide strength to David as He always does. Thank you Lord!
When David shared his story, I was surprised how raw those emotions were, as if whatever happened almost 4 years ago just happened yesterday. The memories of the pain, the apprehension, the anxiety, more pain, the anguish, the despair, the hope, the comfort, the encouragement, the love, the support, the friendship, the Divine deliverance, the intimacy with the Lord... Many hearts were touched by David's sharing of God's goodness and love and together we exalt and praise His mighty name!
David had another chance to share his story at another church's married couple ministry on 05Jul. The title is God's slience. He will be sharing at another church this Sunday. Please pray that the Lord will use him to minister to many more people.
Health wise, David is generally well except slight headache and aches in the spinal area. He is due for his medical appointment tomorrow, do continue to pray for complete healing. Please pray also for Joshua. He has abdominal discomfort for the past 2 days and was given medical leave from school today.
