I only slept about two hours last night because my Parkinson’s was acting up so much. When I came to prayer this morning at 5:00 am I was in a bad mood and feeling sorry for myself. About the 7:00 am prayer time I had a thought that I could ask everybody to pray for me that God would heal me of this Parkinson’s. I have never done that in the ten years that I have had this disease, but it has never been as bad as it has been in the last month. A number of people gathered around me, laid hands on me and prayed for me. While the different people were praying I wondered what would happen. God didn’t cure the disease but He did cure my bad attitude, and my resolve to exercise diligently went up substantially and I went home from prayer this morning and rode my stationary bike for an hour and then ran on my treadmill for 30 minutes and then lifted weights for 30 minutes. Tonight I am feeling much better and when I go home at 10:00 pm I plan on riding some more. Basically what I experienced this morning was encouragement from the Body of Christ. It made a huge difference in my heart and in my thinking.

I got to thinking today that probably the worst thing for me would be to get healed because then I would quit exercising and that has been such a key thing for my positive energy level. Oh well, Jesus is coming soon and then I will get my new glorified body.
