Prayer Request: Ike & Carol
Posted By Joe on March 20, 2009
Ike is a regular contributor here at May He Increase. He's comments have made me think, laugh, and even cry.
The other day, Ike was moved to share his testimony in the comments section, but I'd like to move them out to the main page and ask that the readership join me in praying for his wife and him.
Below is what he wrote in the comments section of the post:
My wife has had her entire colon removed and she also had a bilateral radical mastectomy. Actually, if I were to tell you all the organs that have been removed from her body, you would need both hands to count them. We have been broken and humbled. The one thing that “we” can say is that even though there are no guarantees that the cancer will not come back and even though my beautiful wife is scarred emotionally and physically, while “we” were sinners…the lowest of the low…God saved us! And that is enough! Even if the cancer comes back, God is enough! He is good! He is precious! He is our treasure! He will satisfy us!
“Whom have we in heaven but the Lord and on earth there is nothing we desire but Him! Our flesh and our hearts may fail but the Lord is the strength of our hearts and our portion forever!”
“ALL HAIL THE POWER OF JESUS NAME, LET ANGELS PROSTRATE FALL! BRING FORTH THE ROYAL DIADEM AND CROWN HIM LORD OF ALL!”
In Christian love,
Ike and Carol
Please continue to keep them in prayer.
May He Increase!
