Speak Up for Christmas

Christmas Week

It is Christmas Eve and my wife and I are to give the “moment of sharing” at all four services at First Church of Christ in Wethersfield, Ct.

Joy has a bad case of laryngitis. We pray hard that she wiil have voice to honor God at the worship services.

At the 5:30 service she is barely audible. People are straining to hear her.

By the 7:30 service her voice is a little louder.Our prayers are being answered.

At the 9:30 service her voice is stronger. Thank you Lord.

At midnight she sounds like herself. I share with that congregation about the laryngitis and how the Lord has been answering our prayers all evening. There is applause for God.

Driving home Joy turns toward me to say something and her voice is gone. It doesn’t return to normal for two days.

"With men this is impossible but with God all things are possible." (Matthew 19:26)
