Mark's Blog

"We who preach & write, do so in a manner different from which the Scriptures have been written. We write while we make progress. We learn something new every day. We speak as we still knock for understanding…If anyone criticizes me when I have said what is right, he does me an injustice. But I would be more angry with the one who praises me and takes what I have written for Gospel truth than I would be with the one who criticizes me unfairly." Augustine
Grace to all, Mark Hamby

need a miracle

I am sorry that I am spending so much time blogging for personal reasons, but I am compelled to ask for your prayers for my dad.  For those who are new, my dad just recently came to know Jesus as his savior.  A week later he experienced extreme pain from a bile duct infection or obstruction which then precipitated a heart attack. On Saturday we had so much hope…he was sitting up in a chair talking to us, eating soup, black tea, ginger ale, and apple juice…this was his liquid four course dinner…this was his second time to have liquids since last Wednesday, so you can imagine how hungry he was.  Just a few hours after this wonderful breakthrough, and after receiving medication that may have caused some complications, his health began to rapidly deteriorate.  As I sit here in his room on the ICU floor, my dad is in critical condition.  His kidney’s have stopped functioning, there is fluid on his lungs, and he is on a ventilator in order to breathe. Please pray for him.  I believe that God can mightily use him for His glory in His Kingdom service.  We are praying for God’s will to be done and a miracle.  Thank you my friends.  There is just no one like my dad.

Mark
