Back to Fasting!!

I have a work friend, Marie, who has been diagnosed with a rare form of liver cancer. While telling someone else about my fasting for my former pastor's wife Margaret, it occurred to me that I should fast for Marie as well.

Margaret, by the way, during her last blood test, was pronounced cancer free!!! Wooo Hooooo!! She will wait until after the Christmas holidays and then have a stem cell transplant to ensure (the doctors say) that the cancer won't come back! I believe that she was healed in the name of Jesus!

So for Marie, I am trying a bigger fast. Marie and I aren't really friends outside of work so I am not sure what her prayer network looks like. She told me in an email the other day that she believes that several miracles have taken place already!! I am glad that she believes in miracles and all it takes for her to be healed is one person who prays and believes! I have already prayed it and I believe that she is healed in the name of Jesus! I prayed specifically for healing and that she get her strength back quickly. She remarked in an email that she believes that 85% of her strength is back and almost all her symptoms are gone! Woooo Hoooo!!

My bigger fast will includes prayers of thanks and no chocolate for a month - through the whole Christmas season!! This is day two and I am trying not to have any accidental chocolate!

So when you read my post, will you add your prayers to mine? Pray that Marie be healed, believe she is healed (it's so simple) and then thank our gracious God that she is healed!!

Thanks so much and if I don't get back here again before Christmas, God Bless You All!!

Merry Christmas!!
