"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God!" [Hebrews 12:2, NIV]
You know...the testing of your faith develops perseverance! That is the promise of James 1:3 - and today, we are ready to run! And we ask that you run this race with us! Run the race of faith - allowing your faith and actions to work together so that others might see the Love, Grace and Pursuit of our Heavenly Father in their lives! Your Faith is of greater worth than gold, for even gold will be destroyed when refined by fire - but not our faith in Christ Jesus! Jesus is the author and perfecter of our faith, and Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls. [1 Peter 1:8-9, NIV]
We have suffered much through the many trials we have faced in this time of His refining fire...but today - with great joy - we rejoice! Today is the day...and by faith we step out! With the overwhelming peace and strength of our Savior, we persevere!
Please be in prayer today for our appointments with Dr. Emery, Dr. Sherman, Dr. Speer and the neo-natal teams of Magee Women's and Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh! Don't know what we will learn today...but we pray for the wisdom, knowledge, peace, grace and strength to Praise Him no matter what unfolds! Lord - we continue to pray for a miracle...and that through this...those hurting and broken in our world might come to know you and find the great joy we have in Your Unfailing Love! We love you Lord - and we thank you for your incredible blessing in our lives! Here we go...
All Eyes on Jesus!
