“Dear family and friends from across the world, this is Fae here. With a heart full of gratitude, deep affection, and great thankfulness to God for His ongoing provision in one of the most difficult situations I’ve ever faced… It’s been a real learning curve to try to handle the stress and culture shock coupled with the most difficult experience I’ve ever had in my married life. William and I have been given responsibility in the medical system here for Winkie’s care 24-7 since he moved from ICU. I have relied on God daily for His help and strength and have seen amazing answers to prayer. And the mail, emails, scriptures and gifts both small and great have been a constant encouragement to my heart. But not all the trials went away. When you’ve just come from the hospital and you’re feeling nothing but fear, and you’re walking alone at 1:00AM back to the apartment, and the lonely elevator looks extremely dismal, everything can become so overwhelming. My walk with God…you feel a bit like Job. God is righteous. God knows all things. You’re being tested as to what you feel about God. And whatever you’re going through you’re trying to see how much is of God…You’re feeling numb. You’re reaching out to God without feeling anything. You’re relying on God when sometimes you’re not seeing any immediate result. I am purely in faith resting on the word of God. I didn’t think Winkie’s life was over. I didn’t think God’s purposes for his life were over. I had to face the reality of what would happen if he did die. The financial thing was heavy to me, but I didn’t worry about that at all because God had said not to. Reading and re-reading the scriptures that some of you sent served to confirm my own faith for his miraculous restoration. The combined weight of your continued prayers and intercession finally turned into the day I now call “Miracle Monday”- the day he came out of his coma. To see him now sitting up in bed, talking, remembering and smiling into my face seemed like a resurrection. Love to everyone, Fae” Posted by Israel Anderson
