Last night as we discussed the things we had seen, Pete mentioned a man in a wheelchair that was in bad shape. The man had tied a lawn chair seat to replace the missing seat. Scott said that it just happened that the the container that had arrived last week had a wheelchair on it. GOD's timing is perfect.
Today in eye glasses it seems that God wanted to remind us that He doesn't stop with one miracle. I think we fit more glasses through prayer than through our high-tech equipment. From multiple cataract cases to another small child with crossed eyes, we were amazed at GOD's provision for our patients.
My favorite was an older lady who had extreme cataracts. We took turns trying desperately to get a reading before accepting that it wouldn't happen. We prayed and went to the box of glasses not in our inventory, where we found an older style of glasses that had been in the box for the past several trips. We had no idea what the prescription was, but they looked like they would be perfect on the lady.
As I put them on her face, she said praise God she could see the people out in the field and thanked us. I told her that God had provided the glasses for her and she looked beautiful in them. Her precious smile reminded me once again to never stop EXPECTING MIRACLES.
