Epaphroditus and I have one thing in common. . .

Even though I don't know WHAT his illness was, I can certainly sympathize with him being away from home without his normal caregiver and no such thing as tylonal. Thank the Lord for prayer and His healing power.
Having been down for two days, gives you plenty of time to work on talking and more importantly, listening to God. Isaiah writes for the Lord "is God's hand too short that it cannot save?". .. (no implied). . . But it is your sins that have separated you from Him. . . ".
Realizing how much we need to call on Him, and more so him speak to us is becoming so vivid here. Yes we can see the enormous task of reaching lostness. We can even realize our inabilities and helplessness. But, do we realize His power to break through the darkness.
"How do you know God has a special plan for me?", Elana, 14 asked. Then after hearing her friend Tanya read the promises and PLAN of God for her "in Christ" from Ephesians 1 she indicates her desire to have this. Pray for her to receive Jesus's great life for her.
She is just one of many desparately wanting to know is there hope. Pray for the others to find His healing power.
