It's been great! I've had a great time fellowshipping with the LORD! Amazing things had been happening, We was invited to my wife's friend party and a gentlemen (who was drunk) noticed a glow on my face. He told me that he wanted to get out of his life of sin. Me & my Pastor are going to visit him tomorrow. Please pray for us! God get all of the Glory!!! Praise His Holy Name!

Fasting is new to me, so even 7 days seemed like a huge commitment. But, already I am seeing God's faithfulness during this time. I have struggled with fatigue and a pretty constant headache during the past 5 days - both other than that, I've done well. I had to share with someone that I was fasting on Day 3 (they were questioning why I wasn't eating and was concerned about an eating disorder) and they were amazed at how good I looked. I praised God as a testimony of His provision! Thank you for putting this information out there, especially for those of us who are "beginning" fasters and might be afraid of some of the effects of fasting. It's good to know that all that I'm experiencing is normal. :) God Bless! I am on day 5 of a 7 day fast, though I already feel God leading me toward a long term fast.

As some of you know I have been dealing with an ongoing custody battle for my youngest son. I just have to thank all of you so much for your prayers and support, if it weren't for my church family I don't know what I would do. I have great news to report, despite the best attempts of the other side, God answered our prayers, all of our prayers! The master granted everything I had asked for, praise God, glory to God! It was just so evident to me that this was an answer to all of our prayers. I am so grateful, and appreciative and in awe of my awesome God, who can do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. After it was over, I was thinking to myself, what is wrong with me, why am I so surprised, did I forget that God is God, why don't I trust in him more? This was just yet another trial to strengthen my faith, and praise God it has! Praise Report!

Their son Jason has been on a feeding Tube since birth and the cost of his formula has previously been covered by their insurance but now will no longer be covered. The formula is very expensive and there is no way that they can afford to pay the cost of this. Pray for God's grace in this situation.

Several people, including 2 people who I had never worked with before, took it upon themselves to go to bat with the insurance company to fight for coverage for us. The insurance company representative just called me to let me know they have "clarified" the policy to now INCLUDE his food for tube feeding/infusion. We are thankful that God put people in place who have supplied our need while working through this problem, that he put people in place with a heart for families with special needs children, and people who knew the right "big wigs" to call and get involved to bring a speedy resolution to this issue. It will take a couple of days to get the new paperwork "down the pipeline" and with the weekend we won't probably get delivery of his supplies until early next week, but we have enough formula to get us through until then.
