Isaac Update

OK, so this weekend Prophet Bob Hazlett was with us again for a weekend of meetings. I have some reports to share about progress with Isaac Campbell. I felt led to have Jenn bring the twins from the nursery following the 9:00 service to have Bob minister to them. It also turned out that about half of the early service crowd stuck around to join in the prayers for Jenn and the boys. Awesome response!

The immediate need is for Isaac to absorb more nutrients through his shortened (but miraculaously grown) small intestines. He has not grown physically in over a year and his gut is often very painful. He also has been walking with a leg brace to increase stability and endurance in his right leg.

This past Sunday, Jenn felt led to NOT put the leg brace on Isaac when she got him ready for church. She asked Isaac if he wanted the brace (he ususally says 'Yes'). He said, 'No;' so Jenn left it off. When Christopher and Isaac came into the sanctuary from the nursery, they proceeded straight to the altar and marched up the steps to be in the middle of the action. We called Jenn up also and began to minster to them.

Here are some reports we have received from Jenn the past couple days:
Wellspring Family, your prayers rocked the heavens! Isaac always wears his brace for support walking. Today (Monday) Isaac is running! He still has a limp, but our little boy is running through the house without his brace! God answered that prayer! Just in time for Isaac to go to the neurologist on Wednesday. Let's see what the doctor can say about him now! :)

Later . . . Wellspringers. Isaac grew! Last Thursday he was 34.5 inches; today 35 inches!!! I am in awe watching each of our prayers being answered! It's been a year since he grew! Plus today is Isaac's first time going to his school without his brace. We are so excited for him! God is so great!

Later still . . . I have never seen Isaac this happy . . . NEVER! He is a whole different child. I am so excited for the neurologist to see him tomorrow (Wednesday)! The first time we met the neurologist he walked out of the room thinking he had the wrong child. Imagine now. A child that was not supposed to function is now running and talking!

I continue to hold on to the vision I had early in the life of both Christopher and Isaac. They were both standing before the congregation at Wellspring as young adults. One spoke and the other stood behind to the right of his brother in agreement. I do not know what was said but I do know they were healthy adults in that vision. Be encouraged!! God will continue to do mighty things in these boys life.
