On Sunday night, May 22 I asked my friends on the internet to pray for 5 month old Zach, who was scheduled for an urgent surgery to have his eye removed. Will You Pray for Zach Now!?
God gives us an incredible freedom to go directly into His Throne Room to ask on behalf of others and even ourselves to ask Him to change His Plan, to suggest that He come up with a second plan that will spare someone we love, or even ourselves, a great deal of suffering.
God delights in our presence, and reminds us constantly that He loves doing impossible things, and we have not because we ask not.
But we come into His presence reminding ourselves constantly that He already had a plan. It was, is , and always will be a perfect plan. We come committed to praise Him in all things and thank Him for all things, and to not point to the finger of blame at ourselves or our brethren if God decides to continue with His perfect plan, or to pout because God did not obey our wishes and change destiny every single time we ask.
The surgeons removed Zach's eye on Monday morning. The healing process is progressing well. It appears that all the cancer was removed. Tim, Zach's father, is keeping us posted on his blog. Pastor Tim Brown's blog
I thank all of you for taking special time our of your busy lives to pray for this urgent need. I knew I could count on you! I pray that you will continue to pray for Zach and his family, for I have resolved to never stop praying for him, and for you, my friends. But I have also resolved that I will never cease praising God in all things, even if His plan involves suffering.
