So happy to share with everyone the news from Jim and Faye Hyland:
“The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.” Psalm 126:3. 🙏🏻
By the mercies of the Lord I finally had a doctor’s appointment this afternoon (Tuesday March 12th). I was to have it yesterday but they called at the last moment and postponed it 24 hours as the doctor had emergency surgery. I found it a very hard 24 hours. Evidently the Lord had another lesson for me to learn as I turned to Psalm 27:14. “Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.”
Anyway the results of my CAT Scan were clear, and I will not have another one for a year.
Having said that, we realize that it is nothing less than the prayers and faith of our brethren.
The other day in the midst of turmoil of mind and lack of faith, I was reading in Mark’s Gospel chapter 2, concerning the man that was let down in front of the Lord Jesus by his friends through the roof. Verse 5 was a great encouragement, “When Jesus saw their faith.” Not the faith of the man who was sick, but the faith of the ones who brought him to the Lord. I was thankful to realize that though my faith was small, to say the least, I had others bringing me to the Lord with more faith than I had.
Now as we feel relief and rejoicing we want to thank our brethren for their prayers and out pouring of love and care. It has been a real blessing and nothing less than amazing.
We send our love to all!!! The family of God is so wonderful and we value it more than ever before.
With much love,
Jim & Faye
