God's healing in Kachungwa

It has been a little while since anything has been posted to our blog, but I was just informed of some news that I just needed to share with you and Praise God for His awesome love for His children.
You may recall from the post "Our God is an Awesome God" that we had gone into the village of Kachungwa distributing mosquito nets.  One of the moments for me personally that touched me the deepest of our entire time in Uganda was when we visited a family, gave them a mosquito net, talked and prayed with them.  As we were leaving, a woman with a baby strapped to her back called us back (see the picture), unstrapped her baby, held her up and said (through my translator) that her baby was very sick and needed special prayer.

I can remember just as if it were yesterday, standing in front of the mud hut in the middle of banana trees in Uganda - holding that precious little baby's face in my hands and feeling completely awestruck at the fact that God would put me in such a place.  I didn't even know how to pray, so I prayed that God wouldn't let me keep Him from doing what He needed to with this young child.  And then the Spirit gave me words for a prayer for the child - it was so beautiful to pray "in the Spirit". 

The picture is one I keep on the wallpaper of my computer at work so I can pray for the woman and her baby continually.  The other day, I sent Rose, the amazing social worker with the children in Kachungwa, a copy of this picture and asked her if she would mind talking with this woman and asking about the baby.  Here is Rose's response (just this morning):

You asked me about the lady with a baby i am glad to inform you that God answered your prayers, the baby is well, i informed the mother about your prayers, she was really amazed, that is how different God works in us.

I sat at my computer with tears running down my face as I laughed with joy at what God has done. 

Praise God for the healing work that He is doing in Kachungwa and answering the prayers of one unworthy man. 

Rose also reports:

"We have seen the working hand of God, he has healed so many children"

Please keep up your prayers for our brothers and sisters in Kachungwa.  Keep loving and sponsoring the children because you are making a difference there and I can only imagine that God is pleased with the "Weird" way that we are loving people on the other side of the world.

In the healing name of Jesus we pray and believe,

Dave
