Health Update: Swamped with Prayer, Recovering Before the Next Round! |
Greetings!,
We continue to receive hundreds of messages, emails and cards from all over the world regarding the challenging health issue I continue to face with cancer in my esophagus.
I am so grateful for all the love and concern expressed by loved ones, friends and the Body of Christ. This is a powerful healing agent in itself.
Then, there are constant reports of thousands of people praying globally. Prayer networks have been activated and individuals have said that they are praying all the time.
With this much prayer, it would be a miracle if I wasn't healed...!
Here's one encouraging note I received from one of my sons in the faith, Todd Rigby from Australia, "... I don't like hearing that you're not well, Jeff. You know, I was thinking how they call cancer the big"c," well really it's just a little c, because Christ is the Real Big "C". Mate, this cancer rubbish is nothing compared to Him and what He paid on that cross for you Jeff. You know as well, there are thousands and thousands of people all around the world, who you've impacted, befriended, loved, preached to, encouraged, brought to Jesus, who love you mate and are praying for you. This little cancer thing doesn't stand a chance. And another thing, I don't think we've seen all the vision that God has placed in your heart come to pass yet. You've still got plenty more to do on this planet before God will take you home Jeff. I reckon God will be glorified through this!"
This gladdens my soul! I started chemo and radiation a week ago. It will last for the next six weeks. It really knocks you out! I was down for the count over last weekend and did not start to feel anywhere near right again until yesterday.
Tomorrow, I'm scheduled to do the second of four rounds, with a week break in between.
However, we are believing that this time will pass quickly and I will be able to return to full strength soon; sooner than the medical folk are estimating.
The new nutrition regimen I'm on is really helping me to be strengthened to handle this assault on my body.
Please pray specifically that I will be healed before the need for surgery!
I am deeply grateful to those who assured me of their prayers and are sending financial support to help us get through this trial.
One time donations are greatly appreciated, however monthly support is crucial to get us through this period so that we will be able to continue our mission.
We still need you to stand with us in prayer and support!
