I have so much to share with you today. While watching This Life, a CBC TV series about a woman with cancer, I almost set off my fire alarm. More seriously, a request for help from a near-stranger in the Dominican Republic brought up bad memories of sponsoring a street kid from Uganda who ended up squandering my money. I get that the strongest skill he’s learned in life is survival, but I think I’ll help people closer to home. But his request reconnected me with a friend in the DR who’s going to pray and fast for me tomorrow. I’m grateful and encouraged by sweet Garrine. I remember how Jesus gently carried my mother over the threshold when she died. It was not just peaceful, it was joyful. Even to the end of this life, and beyond, God is with us. He is with you and your angel is still before the Father, and your angel is praying for you. I encourage you to pray too. I hope you get the comfort, strength and peace from it that I do, and that God answers our prayers for healing.
