Multiplication of sanctification

Earlier this evening Jadon recited Psalms 1 and 23 for Akong Chang at the UC Irvine Medical Center.  The recitation was meant to bless Akong, especially as afterward I read it to him (as best I could, anyway) from the Romanized Taiwanese Bible.  Little did we realize that the nurse who was busy helping him in his room was also blessed ("energized") by his recitation, & I realized also as I was reading that Ama also got to hear God's word.  We talked about it afterward, and was glad to know that the greatest blessing fell upon the blessor, even among the "great cloud of witnesses" (Hebrews 12:1).

Un arbol brotando en el desierto

I was especially touched by Jadon's heartfelt prayer of protection and healing for our family as he too feels the ache and hardship of our particular burdens, especially as Akong's head injury means more time apart from JJ & me.
