 Please read Account of Abraham in prayer: Genesis 18:23-32

...Then he said, "Let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak but once more: Suppose ten should be found there?" And He said, "I will not destroy it for the sake of ten." (verse 32)


Dear friends, two weeks ago we were visiting the Froedtert Cancer center. A man receiving treatment and his wife were happy to see me. My presence surely seems to put people at ease and get them to talking! So I brought my handler in for a visit. The man turned out to be a retired LCMS pastor. He and his wife told us about their eventful past serving within the church. I told them about my work, with the help of my handler. Here he sat, receiving infusions for an "aggressive tumor" with the doctor's prognosis of six months for him to live. He said there were many people praying for him, although this was a hard to fight form of cancer. He told us he was completely ready to end his journey here and go to Heaven. "If that's what the Lord wants, so be it", he said assuredly. We reminded our friend of Abraham having faith enough to boldly ask God for what he wanted. God could say "yes" or He could say "no" yet Abraham WAS going to ask, and he trusted God would hear him. With our promise of prayer for them, we said goodbye to our new friends.

Yesterday we visited the same area again. There was our pastor friend from last week. He and his wife greeted us and couldn't wait to tell us that his tumor had disappeared! Yes, he said, it was a miracle! When his doctors had checked on his progress, they couldn't believe what had happened. He was cancer free. They had been hoping to see us today to tell us how much our visit meant to them last week. They had felt uplifted and hopeful after our visit, and they wanted us to know. Then they gave me extra hugs and love.

I' m thinking you dear reader, probably have experienced or heard of a story like mine. We thank our God for His constant Love, a Love that does give us miracles every day.

 

We thank you O Lord for your Love that gives us all we need. And thank you for surprising us with your miracles. Give us all the faith of Father Abraham. Amen.
