a note for the christian readers out there

I wish so badly that I had some good news for the world….but it hasn’t come yet. Misty has lost a little more function in her hand and her speech has deteriorated a bit more over the last few days. We may end up making some big decisions on treatment changes over the next few days….so keep us in prayer. Speaking of prayer, I got a note from my good friend Megan Z. I copied it below so the literal thousands of you who visit each week can read. She is asking all of us to join together on wednesdays and fast something for Misty. I’m in :)

Throughout the Bible, God responds in powerful ways when His people fast and pray/intercede.  There are numerous examples where corporate prayer in faith is promised to be powerful.  Both the Old and New Testaments speak of the power of  combined prayer and fasting  with examples of how God intervenes and delivers people from ungodly influences and harmful situations again and again.  There are present day examples to prove this as well.  So….. since so many people are praying for Misty already, let’s make it even more concentrated & strategic by consecrating (setting apart) a fast once a week on Wednesdays that people can participate in.  On these days, people can seek God about what they could/should give up.  For some,  it may be going without any meals from sun up to sun down.  For others, it may just mean going without one meal, a favorite activity or their coffee for the day.  Maybe some will get up an hour earlier than usual to pray.  The point is that we will be sacrificing our own human wants/needs as an act of faith as we pray believing that Misty will be healed.  In addition to fasting that day, each of us will really try to give extra time to interceding on Misty’s behalf for healing.  Combined, this will be an awesome corporate effort that will open the floodgates of heaven and rain a breakthrough in healing and restoration.  God will be glorified as many see, and take part in, His power at work in both Darren and Misty’s lives! We wont stop until we see results!

Love yas,  Meg
