Dear Family of faith,
Often people have asked me whether I believe that miracles still happen. I do; and this past week I experienced yet another one. It was Sunday evening when I left Charles and Joann Sheffield at the Hospice Care Center. Charles had been unconscious all day and breathing very heavy and labored. After praying, I left for home, not expecting that he would survive the night. Five minutes later, he "woke up" and began talking and remembering everything that had happened to him in the past weeks. The next day he was receiving visitors, eating, and breathing much more easily. It was one of those God-moments, a reminder that just when we are about to give up, everything changes and hope is born again. Today Joann and Charles are talking about going home. Whatever challenges and obstacles to life you face right now, remember, what is impossible for mortals is always possible for God. God is the Lord of the impossible.
