Flow river

Some good things are quietly happening at the Healing Home. We have some very sick, needy people with us and they are getting better.

Tomorrow early morning I will take Samrek to the van pickup place so that he can head home. He came to us very weak and what my dad would have called 'yellow around the gills'. His kidneys and liver have been poorly for a long time. Now - well he's looking just so much better and he wants to go home.

Daa, our horror pressure sore guy, is doing really, really well. The sore is steadily healing from the bottom, up (so to speak ...). He says that he feels pain in his buttock and that he can wiggle his toe when he sits up. He is not meant to have any feeling or movement below his waist.

Then the is Yun. She came to us with a very sore knee and ears that were almost deaf. She got her knee healed - right as rain. Then - and this is the best part - when we were beaching down south, Phanna felt to pray for a miracle in her ears. The staff prayed - then Sopheap checked her out with softly talking from behind. There was an instant huge improvement. Yun has headed home, all smiles.

We have been training our staff every Friday morning. The last five weeks have been focussed on the work of the Holy Spirit and how He is like a flowing river of life. A few weeks back we taught them on the prophetic gift - and then said that next week they were going to prophesy. Talk about a look of possums caught in the headlights!

But they have taken the practical teaching - and stepped out. With Phanna and Sopheap especially, it has been like taking the kink out of the hose. Life is flowing out of them in a new measure. It is 1 John 3 stuff - the joy of seeing your (spiritual) kids walking out this life.
