That was so beautiful. I truly believe in what you said.

I have friends who are such wonderful examples of "faith".

In one couple the husband has CP. The husband is a wonderful man who suffers greatly.. his wife is the caregiver. Her burden is heavy too. But they just keep giving and showing their love for our Father.

They have given us food when I was really sick. They never give up.. but always seem quite able to handle the hardships they endure. Don't get me wrong.. I see the pain and I see the tired eyes. But their faith never waivers.

We've had friends who lost a young child by murder. They smiled as they attended the funeral of their daughter, they comforted the mourners who had attended. I marveled at how they could do that. It was their faith that sustained them through their grief.

These couples and others have taught us by their faith, that we can accomplish anything through Jesus.

We deal with health issues too.

In my support groups, I've found that those who have a deep and abiding faith, do better than those who don't in dealing with illness.

Same with the loss of a loved one.

We witnessed first hand friends who did not believe in any religion, suffer far harder than any Christian when they lost their only son. There has been no comfort for them..and it has gone on for over a decade now.

I honestly believe illness can be a blessing. Can bring a multitude of blessings.

What a wonderful ministry by you.. that you should mention what you did in this post at this particular time in my life.. is just further proof to me of His Divine Grace.

You'll never know how deeply it has touched me, or how high it has lifted me.

Thank you so much.
