I can’t imagine loosing a leg. But we spent 8 hours on the road this week to visit a 17 year old young lady who has been battling bone cancer in her leg since this summer and is not winning the battle with the cancer. So surgery is probably set for the end of this next week.
Please pray for Emma!
I can’t imagine spending three years in prison and loosing both of your parents while incarcerated. This man is out and quickly getting back on his feet with help of friends and family. Working full time within three weeks of release.
Please pray for Johnny! Mostly praise!
I could go on and on with so many I can’t imagine kind of stories. I guess I lead a pretty normal life so far. Thank God and knock on wood.
What amazes me about Emma and Johnny and many other “I can’t imagine” kind of stories is the amount of faith that these people are relying on. If it were not for the foundation of Jesus Christ as their source of strength, they would have given up long ago.
Also what amazes me, is the times I have tried to minister to them – they end up ministering to me and most likely more so.
God is not blind to our human condition. He sent his son that knew hurt and pain and suffering – he absorbed it in those he touched and healed. God through Jesus is our strength. Hold on to that. I know for these two and for many others the upcoming holidays will be an additional challenge to their new experiences in life. So hold on. Hold on to faith! Hold on to the Savior! Hold on to the One who created you with His own special design – who adores you and wants the best for you! Hold on to the One who will make the old pass away and the new and perfect come and be our new norm. That may also be hard to imagine. But I am trying to imagine it. Are you?
