My husband has ALS and we are praying daily for his healing. He is fighting with all his might and there is a group of friends at our church who pray for him daily as well. We meet with them every 2 weeks to pray for his healing. I have a formula when I pray for him: Praise God!, Thank God for all he has done, Thank God for the healing, Pray for the healing. (At home, on my own and with my husband, when I pray I ask for his forgiveness for my sins and ask for the strength to keep on going too.) But my husband is getting worse so today we go to an appointment about getting a permanent feeding tube placed in his stomach and while I now believe he will be healed I don't know when, so this is hard to take in. His speech is worse and he's so tired he had to miss a ministry team meeting tonight (he runs it). He can't eat anything which isn't soft so fresh fruit and raw vegetables are banned along with favourites such as toast! I'm waiting for the healing, but with less patience because it's only been 4 months since his diagnosis and this disease is rapidly taking him from me piece by piece. Is being inpatient a bad thing? Should I continue to be serene and smile happily even though my instinct is question the timing? I'm trying so hard not to question God and to remember that His is the peace which passes all understanding. But when it's really life or death it's tough. Especially when he's only 49 and I have lots of jobs around the house he needs to do
