Pensive Moments

This week, Chris' left brace broke. When he went to the orthodics on Friday, they gave him a camwalker. When he got to work on yesterday, they told him, after he had been there a few hours, that they would not allow him to work. He could not come back until he had his brace on. That meant in eight weeks.

When he came home, my question was why? You could tell that this person who hardly complains or shows any sadness was quite disturbed. I too was sad because I know how much Chris loves to be active and out there working. All I could do is pray.

The Lord gave me, at least I think it was Him, that Christ is a warrior who faces the world head-on. These weeks, or this time off, has been designed to make him stronger in spirit. Go to everything--evangelism, cell group, Friday night live, Sunday services, everything! Do all you can to get stronger. I think Chris accepted that.

God, I pray, in your name, the name of Jesus, that you come through and show yourself strong on my husband's behalf. Draw him closer to you. Make him strong in spirit. Perform a miracle. In Jesus' name, Amen.
