I've been praying for a Purdue University student, A, for the past 10 days. My daughter, who's a senior at Purdue, told me about A and the accident he was involved in while riding his bike on campus. The accident was very serious and A was rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. It seemed like he might not survive the incredible trauma that his body (specifically, his brain) had sustained. But, here it is, a week and a half later, and A is making progress, improving a tiny bit every day.
I am so thankful for the thousands of people -- I'm not exaggerating; there are truly thousands of people all around the world who know about this student -- who are praying for A's recovery. And these same people are also praying for his parents, siblings, extended family, friends, doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals who are watching over him and providing excellent medical care. The staff at A's hospital are dedicated to giving all their patients the best care possible, and I'm sure that many of the people on his medical team are also praying for A and his family.
I'm also thankful to God for hearing and answering the prayers of the many prayer warriors who are interceding for A. The Lord has been so faithful to answer even the smallest requests and everyone who is praying is confidently expecting that our prayers for complete healing will be answered in His perfect timing.
