Thanks for always loving, accepting, and being there for her. She says she sees God in you. Now, that's high praise. <BR/>Sincerely, <BR/>Annie's friend (Jo Ann)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7910058.post-85637700730259246322007-07-03T18:50:00.000-05:002007-07-03T18:50:00.000-05:00WHY?At 5:30 AM on Mother's Day, we got a phone cal...WHY?<BR/><BR/>At 5:30 AM on Mother's Day, we got a phone call from Marcus' wife. His heart had stopped early that morning, and he was in critical condition. We rushed to the hospital, as all the family was gathered.<BR/><BR/>At 8:00 AM, they let us go into his acute-care room, where we laid hands on him and prayed in Jesus' name for healing, for strength, and for the will to live.<BR/><BR/>The charge doctor asked to speak to us, so we went out to the family room. The doctor told the assembeled family that she didn't think he was goinfg to make it.<BR/><BR/>We prayed. More, harder, intensely, all of us as a group, individually, and even in small clumps. We prayed as many of us had never prayed before. In different languages, even.<BR/><BR/>He got better that morning.<BR/><BR/>Were our prayers effective? I have my answer, but for the doubters (rightly), let me say this... <BR/><BR/>I would rather be able to say now, "We prayed for a miraculous healing and he got better, somehow", than to say at a funeral, "Gosh, I <I>sure wish</I> we had prayed for a miraculous healing."PM Summerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08841490283131875648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7910058.post-15305431949970241192007-07-02T00:09:00.000-05:002007-07-02T00:09:00.000-05:00WHY?WHY?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
