Phil, sorry to hear your health is not improving as quickly as desired.
Just want you to know that your work with intercessory prayer is greatly
appreciated. Your spiritual wisdom and compassion is rare, and has had a
positive impact on many lives. We will continue to pray for you, Sandy, and
the rest of the family. Hope you have a blessed and peaceful summer.
Cheers!
David

Rhonda,
I just placed the below information on my website that tells about how I am
doing. Sandy is much better but she was off work for two weeks this time
and I can't recall the last time she was that sick. She can update you to
the dogs but they are all fine, too.
Current News About This Ministry
By Phil Scovell
Over recent months, I have given much consideration to discontinuing the
intercessory inner healing prayer
ministry I have been doing for nearly the past eight years. The articles
and testimonies on the website have become
so numerous, it is almost hard to locate something I've written in order to
share with someone as we pray and for
that alone, I praise the Lord because it demonstrates all the Lord has done
for me and with me in recent years. I find
myself, however, spending less and less time maintaining the website and
updating it with new material simply
because of volume alone.
Furthermore, I have apparently reached a point, since my spinal surgery
January 14, 2009, that is not likely
going to improve things further; this in spite of dieting, getting my high
blood sugar down to normal, lowering my
blood pressure, and physically exercising. I suppose that it, in and of
itself, has something to do now with my age,
fully recovering, that is, but my attempts, on the other hand, to improve
physically beyond where I am at this
moment, doesn't seem to be progressing. I experience a great deal of
stiffness and aching when awakening each
morning and it is normally early afternoon, after moving around for a few
hours, that I finally begin to feel the aches
and pains, as well as the stiffness in my legs, recede to a tolerable
level.
Actually 58 years of age in 2010 isn't that
old, but since my back troubles began, and since the spinal surgery, things
just have never quite returned to what it
once was.
An additional concern is my voice. I was beginning, before the spinal
surgery, to experience some voice
problems. Since the surgery, and the titanium plate and pins that were
used
to fuse vertebras C4 and C5, my voice
has not improved but is weaker now than before. I'm concerned about
putting
too much strain on my voice because
I have many more free audio files of teaching I want to record.
Closely connected to the subject of my voice is that of my hands. Two
weeks before the spinal surgery, I
could no longer read Braille, type on the computer keyboard, or dial a
telephone number; even a phone with large
buttons. Although, as you can see for yourself, my hands are doing well
but
I still have tingling and numbness in
my left thumb and left index finger and my right hand and wrist are
considerably weaker than prior to the surgery. I
prefer writing to speaking, to tell the truth, but would appreciate your
prayers for both. Yet, in all of this, I am at 97
or 98 percent of what I was three months after the surgical procedure. In
other words, I am very thankful for what
the Lord has done for me.
Finally, there is my balance. I walk without assistance but I doubt I
could even come close to walking a
mile; this in spite of riding my stationary exercise bike 25 miles a week.
Regardless, I have to literally pay attention
to where I am going by walking slower just to keep balanced.
With all this in mind, I am canceling all prayer session appointments as
of
May 15, 2010 and I have
decided to take the whole summer off. Next September 15, 2010, I will then
decide if I will continue by making
appointments again for prayer sessions or not. I will still maintain this
website, and my personal site, and will
continue occasionally adding new articles, writings, personal testimonies,
and even audio teachings which you can
now find in my free audio library. At this point, with my notes and
outlines and my teaching called, "Building the
TEMPLE of God," in audio format under that link title on this main page, I
trust you'll find enough information to
learn how to pray; exchanging your thoughts for God's. I do plan on doing
more free audio recordings and placing
them on my site so look for them and if you wish to be put on a mailing
list
in order to hear about new articles,
testimonies of inner healing, studies, and audio recordings, please let me
know.
If you have any questions about what you have read in this statement, or
in
anything else you read and hear
on the site, feel free to email me at any time.
Complete In Him,
Phil Scovell
