God Loves His Kids!!
(Written in 2001 after our youngest son's knee surgery.)
He proved it to Jason, our 16-year-old "kid" who is halfway between being Mama's little boy and the grown-up teen he aims to be! You see, he had knee surgery on Monday, and the surgeon, all prepared to repair a "torn miniscus" (ligament), did a double-take! The image on the MRI did NOT match the knee on the operating table. There WAS no "torn miniscus" - what happened? Ask Jason! He believes the "Great Physician" got to that ligament before the doctor--and with His Almighty Hand, healed it! "I had a MIRACLE!" he said with a big grin! "Lots of people were prayin' for me!"
WOW! We can read Bible stories to our kids, teach them to pray, take them to church, even lead them in the sinner's prayer--but when they PERSONALLY find out for themselves that prayer works, that a loving God loves THEM personally, the faith level of yet ANOTHER generation goes a little higher...'cause they've seen it first-hand!
Now Jason is going to have some pain and healing needs to take place, for other repairs were done--but the surgery was not as extensive as planned. He won't be mowing the lawn or marching in the band for a little while--BUT now, Jason can hobble on his crutches to the preschool area of our church where he's a teacher's aid, and he can tell a group of little four-year-olds who prayed for him, that Jesus heals--"He did it for ME!"
Have you personally experienced a wonderful testimony of healing--of body, mind, soul, or spirit? Tell it to someone--let the praise of our Lord resound across the mountains and valleys, the oceans and seas of our earth--He remains faithful to generation after generation...yes, He LOVES His Kids--and we are ALL HIS KIDS...He will be faithful to US ALL...let us praise His Name!
Delight in a Word from the Well--a refreshing in the Water of His Word
"Thy faithfulness is unto all generations... (Psalm 119:90)."
Draw from the Well--a prayer for renewing strength for this day
"Lord, You are the God of every generation. We learn to put our trust in You daily; we teach our kids to do the same--and then they experience it--and WOW! Thank You, Lord, for your faithfulness to EVERY generation...and thanks for loving us ALL...we are truly YOUR KIDS and we are proud to proclaim Your praise, In Jesus' Name, Amen."
