Answered Prayer

Praise the LORD, my son in Iraq passed his PT test! I can't say it better than his and his wife's emails, so here they are:

From Roy:

Quote:
With a lot of prayer, a lot of sweat, and quite a few tears, God
pushed me over the finish line today!!!

My knee buckled passing someone on the last quarter mile and it hurts
a good bit, but right now it is numb thanks to a huge load of
adrenalin and the only real true anesthetic Smile

I LOVE YOU MOM AND DAD, THANK YOU FOR YOUR FAITH AND YOUR PRAYERS!!!!

SERGEANT KEYES, HERE I COME!!!!


From Angel:

Quote:
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! PRAISE THE GOOD LORD FOR ANSWERED PRAYERS AND FOR AMAZING PEOPLE PRAYING FOR HIM!!!!

For most of you, you know Roy's biggest struggle with his PT test was his run. With bad legs, ankles and feet it's been a hardship for him...but not only did he pass his test today, and passed his run, he passed with amazing numbers. HE PASSED HIS RUN WITH 1 MIN AND 7 SECS LEFT ON THE CLOCK!!!!!!! He did 40 push ups and 50 sit ups (those numbers are usually higher but he was saving his energy for the run, he did what he needed to do to pass those) and because of those numbers he passed at a whole age level younger then his requirements.

GOD IS SO GOOD, ROY FELT GOD WITH HIM AND THANK YOU TO EVERYONE OF YOU WHO PRAYED!!!

Roy says SARGENT HERE I COME!!! next step is getting him home!!!

THANK YOU AGAIN AND AGAIN....LETS CELEBRATE GOD'S STRENGTH IN ROY!!!

ANGEL


I also appreciate all of those who have prayed for Roy. For those who do not know the details, Roy was hindered from gaining rank and threatened with loss of rank because he could not complete the 2-mile run in the required time. He has several physical limitations that have slowed him down every time he tried.

Wow! That's almost exhausting just to read about it! Very Happy

That is great that he passed - well done!
