Well, let me lay some info on you, so that you can see the situation im requesting prayer's for, more clearly.
I would think that many of you, who are familiar with a more wholly "faith" based Christianity, would be familiar with a believer who is strictly going to "trust in the Lord" and has no use for health care, or medicine.
You've known this type?
You were this type?
You are this type?
We are speaking about the Pentecostal type, the Word of Faith group, or anyone who is a follower of anyone who is dedicated to the Kenneth Hagin type theology-ministry, especially where it deals with " faith healing".
This is the Ken Copeland, Billye Brim, Creflo Dollar, Keith Moore, Jesse Duplantis, ..... group.....and others.
And im not here to argue their theology with you, one way or the other, but i wanted you to realize the mindset of the person whom i know, who needs our prayers.
Its a woman, she is 71.
She's been saved since '1977.
Very strong believer, and a very good Christian.
One Child, 3 Grand Children, and 3 Great Grandchildren.
Loves pets...........hugely adores animals, like they are her children
.
Great cook, great with conversation, loves the bible, and knows the word.
Loves to share Jesus with anyone she can.
She has studied K. Hagin theology (that started with EW Kenyon), and is ultra convinced its the truth.
So, there is no talking to this person about going to a doctor for health care or getting any glasses for vision issues.
Follow me?
I eventually was able to get her to take vitamins, but it was years to convince her they are not drugs.
So, ive learned that If i try to be direct and kind and even suggest she goes and gets help with an issue, she will become "off the chain" and will accuse me of trying to cause her to lose faith, or even worse, they'll just disconnect from me.
4 times she has had a severe rapid heart rate issue.......im talking 22O bpm, for hours and hours, and finally i was able to drag her to the ER for a shot that solves this in seconds.
But it would take me half a day or night.
Very frustrating person, in this regard, and honestly this situation with her has really my friendship with her to be very very difficult at times, over the 20+ years ive known her.
And once again, i'm not going to judge this behavior, as, there is no dealing with it, and i know this from much experience. = It is what it is, regarding these type Christians.
But therein lies the issue.....
The issue is that i noticed her bare feet today when visiting, and she has Necropathy in both her big toes.
In other words, they are rotting on the ends, and probably from undiagnosed Diabetes, tho it could be a serious circulation issue also that is not related to Diabetes.
But im pretty certain its Diabetes, as this person eats sugar constantly and sleeps way way too much in the daytime.
And you cant talk to them about sugar, as they are convinced that as long as its not "white" processed sugar, then you can eat it all day and all night.
She eats organic cain sugar and all types of candy, and will argue with you till your ears are ringing and tell you that the sugar in fruit is not the same that you read on a box that says "sugar".
So.......very difficult.
Very.
Drinks Apple Cider vinegar likes its soda, using it on salads.
So the issue is..... her toes are getting black and i could see the rot, ..
Not pretty and needs to be dealt with ASAP.
So, im really not sure what to exactly ask you to pray.
But i think she needs to go get health care for this while there is some time and hope that the problem is not yet too severe to be controlled, but, no matter what, im not certain they will be able to save her right big toe.
So, however you feel that she can be lead to get help, please pray for Pam.
And i know you will pray for her healing, and i thank you in advance.
She is just the finest person, but, in this case, she is going to resist and resist and resist me.
Thats why im here.
God bless,
K
