For the first morning in a couple of days, Rob woke up with no pain. I've been working on adjusting the nightly dose of oil so that it will last for 8-9 hours. The problem with the oil is that once he's in a bit of pain, the oil takes a while to kick in, so I have to learn to adjust the dosage to get ahead of the pain. Yesterday he took a total of 1 3/4 gram, so he's moving up quickly!
He slept all day today, but that didn't stop the prayer team from the Barn (officially called Intercessors of the Trinity) to come over and pray over him. It was an awesome time of prayer. These people love Rob and are expecting a total healing. I like that. These are people that I can connect with, and when it comes to expecting a miracle, there are times that I feel very much alone in my hope. You see, I'm not hoping as in wishing it will come true, I'm hoping as the Bible defines hope (a confident expectation, an assurance of things that are unclear and unknown). Anyway, there are times that I wonder if I'm in denial or if people think I'm crazy, and frankly I don't care because my call is to stand in faith and believe for my husband!
Romans 8:24-25 For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
