Thankful to God

“Awesome is God from his sanctuary; the God of Israel—he is the one who gives power and strength to his people. Blessed be God!” Psalm‬ ‭68‬:‭35‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Yesterday Oleg had another surgery to remove more shrapnel and continue the slow careful process of saving his foot. I think this was surgery number 7.

The doctors remain hopeful because they are surprised that nerves in Oleg’s foot are responding. I give God glory for this great news.

THANK YOU for praying. Please don’t stop.

He has had some fever in the last few days, so as you pray, bring this matter before the throne of grace.

Add to your pray relief from pain. The procedures are not without side effects and an increase in pain is one of them.

Thank you for your prayers. Isn’t it incredible to remember that the Lord Jesus knows and sympathizes:

“Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Thank you for praying.

“Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you. All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing praises to your name.” Selah Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭66‬:‭3‬-‭5‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Thanks for praying, please continue!

Today Oleg had his sixth surgery. This one to remove shrapnel from his head. A couple of days ago there was another surgery to work to save his foot. Doctors are hopeful and we are too!

I believe that the Bible is true. The Bible says

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” James‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Please continue to pray for this young man. May God be glorified!

Hope is alive

Thank you folks for checking in and praying. We know that God hears our prayers.

Oleg’s doctors remain cautiously hopeful. There was another surgery today. The surgeons continue to be hopeful. We know the Lord is at work.

Let’s pray specifically for the Lord to guide the surgeon’s minds, eyes, and hands. Asking our Father to renew the blood circulation and touch bone, tendon, and muscle.

O Lord knit together Oleg’s foot and bring health for you to get glory!

To God be all glory.

Thank you for checking in and praying.

Quick update – Oleg

This morning Oleg and his family are waiting for a fifth surgery. The doctors remain cautiously hopeful that his foot can be saved.

Here’s the prayer I’m praying this morning:

May our Lord give peace and may the surgeons’ hands be guided by He who created the body. In the name of Christ, Amen

Thank you for keeping up and praying.

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I, for you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. Let me dwell in your tent forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah” Psalm‬ ‭61‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭ESV‬‬
