Yesterday as I was teaching my Welcome Class for newcomer refugees, I realized something. I had been sitting normally for 30 minutes as in my right leg bending at 90 degrees like a person does while sitting. I did not have pain. I did not need to straighten my leg out.

Why was that significant? It was the first time since my first surgery March 11 that I have been able to do it. Of course later in the afternoon, physical therapy gave me a dose of reality, but when I shared with my Physical Therapist about it, he said it is a positive sign.
It may seem small to others, but for me it was huge. Small things can make a difference. It is all too easy to overlook them when we read about the awe inspiring miracles in the bible of Jesus healing people. I do believe Jesus still heals today. It may not have been a miracle, but for me it was huge to be able to sit normally again for the first time in four months.
I will keep doing the work in rehab because I want to travel again to share Jesus. If I get to the point that I no longer need the leg brace, the possibility will seem more real.
How was your week?
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
