Day 39 - Praise Reports and a New Pair of Eyes!

         It's Tuesday, possibly my favorite day of the week.  I love Tuesdays because we have corporate prayer at church and then I go out to lunch with two of my favorite ladies!  So before I made it to church this morning a friend of mine had called and let me know that two of her family members that we had been praying for received EXCELLENT reports!  Her mom had a leaky heart valve and now she doesn't!  The doctors aren't sure what to make of that! Her husband's grandmother had had a small stroke last week and it seems that she has NO SIDE EFFECTS! God is so GOOD!
        My favorite part of this testimony though is not the awesome healing of her mom and her grandma-in-law.  My favorite part is how encouraged my friend is becoming in God's goodness.  I really believe that as she is beginning to see God's miracle working power in her life and in the lives of her family members; she is going to be able to take a hold of His miraculous power herself and begin to pray for others and see them healed as well.  God is using this as training ground to strengthen her and build her faith just as He did mine.
        No one starts out stopping people from going to the bathroom so they can pray for them.  That boldness and faith come from seeing God move in other people's situations.   I am thrilled that God is taking what He has taught me and is sending it like a fire all the way to my friend who lives in another state and she will share it with someone else and it will continue to spread!
        If that isn't Amazing enough for one day, one of the teachers at my children's school came in to our prayer meeting because the doctor's told her she is going blind from glaucoma.  We prayed and I know that God heard our prayers and when she goes back to the doctor next week, I know that we will hear a good report!
