My heart is heavy...

A man I worked for at a previous job, is sitting at his wife's side in the hospital tonight. Today is day 17 in ICU. He said, she may leave there, and then again, maybe not. She needs a miracle so she can walk out of there, or perhaps the miracle is that her spirit is allowed to leave, ushered by her heavenly Father... She has been through so much for years. So much pain and suffering... more than enough for one woman. He asked for prayer. He said, "Please pray she doesn't hurt. She has had so much pain now, for so long." I can see her spirit rising, smiling...moving from earthly, to heavenly, dancing into the arms of Jesus.

I want to share the prayer I prayed, and emailed to him tonight. Perhaps it may lift your chin and your heart.

May your heavenly Daddy, wrap His arms around Sally and you and hold you extra close during these days.

May you sense His light filling this darkness, like a storm that threatens.

May hope lift your chin up so you can see His face, and know He cares.

May the love of God, of family and friends bring warmth in the midst of pain.

May you be able to lean into the Lord and find rest. 

May you both hear His voice, whispering love, long...

May Sally rest in the arms of the Lord and find peace.

May you be reminded during this time, that we are not home yet. That though we have tribulation and suffering, that He has overcome this world.

When life doesn't make sense, may you be able to be still and know that He is still God...

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

 

The skin between this world and the heavens is incredibly thin. If you listen, you can hear heaven's voice, humming, singing, joyfully celebrating... If you open eyes, fully, you can see heaven sparkling, reflecting light like a diamond... If your heart is open, you can feel heaven's pure warmth surrounding you, like a loving embrace...If you allow Him, Jesus will lift you up, away from this earthly realm, as He sets your feet to dancing...heavenward.......
