One day Marshall and I were going to go walking around Manhattan (it's something that we love to do), and he found that he couldn't walk because of the pain in his feet. We went to the doctor to find out what it was, and the doctor gave lots of reasons for the pain and said he would try several things. He started on a regimen of shots. So, Marshall was getting shots in his feet and at one time in his spine also because he was having so much trouble walking. We didn't know why he was having so much pain in his feet. The doctors gave us some name for it and gave him medicine and shots which did very little for him. Our family was praying for him, of course, because we know that God hears. One of my daughters (Aisha) looked up foot pain and found some shoes thast had been recommended for people with severe foot pain and diabetes. Marshall went from not being able to walk, to walking 2 miles a day with me. God is good. God is wise. We should listen to him. PRAISE THE LORD!!!
Heavenly Father, please help us to hear with ears of faith. Help us to stand when we just don't feel like it anymore. ("having done all to stand, stand still"). Move on our faith so that is grows like a tree planted by a river. Then Oh, Lord, help us to be obedient and to listen. Remind us that you have the answers, we just have to ask the question. In Jesus name we pray. AMEN
