Exloring Life Eternal

T.S. is requesting prayer. He is seeking the Lord. His neck was broken a couple months ago. He has lost most of his appetite. He is in constant & severe pain. A week ago, the day before Christmas, when I met him (He had been out of fellowship for a long time), he was hopeless & about ready to die, but this week, he seems to be hopeful.

T. was married to an Indonesian in an Islamic wedding, after being misled. He expresses a desire to be closer to the Lord again & feels like his prayers have not been heard. He is convinced that "the Word became flesh" in the Lord Jesus and that he died for his sins & was raised on the 3rd day.

Thank God for:

1. Tim's life.

2. Tim's family & their desire to do right.

3. The love of God towards Tim.

4. The Lord's patience with us all.

Please pray:

1. For the complete healing of his back & spinal injuries which are causing immense pain as well as other physical ailments due to compression of his nerves.

2. For freedom from old medical bills, by pardon &/or payment.

3. For the ability again to "taste & see that God is good."

4. For the Lord to re-unite them with the wider church body.

5. For the Lord to pour out every blessing on His home & salvation on his extended family!

We have seen God do other things. He can do this as well.

BTW: When I first met T., I was impressed to give him some money to help him due to unemployment. I didn't really have any to give. So I prayed the Lord would give me some to give to him. It was Christmas Eve & we went to a worship service. Although I had pleaded for $50, the Lord did give $40. Right after the service, a fellow I knew from that church slipped me some $. And I passed it on to T. As the Psalmist says, "Open your mouth, and I will fill it."
