Last evening, Dennis and I went to calling hours for an older man in our church. Dennis knows more of his grown children than I do, and so he would introduce them to me as we went through the line. We came to the last son and wife. After Dennis introduced me, the wife said, "We prayed for you when you were dealing with cancer. You look so good!" Her daughter had dealt with leukemia several years ago, and we had done the same for her. The thing that the woman and I were sharing is that fact that during our difficult times, we experienced that "peace that passes understanding," a peace that is there and just can't be explained. She gave me a huge hug before we parted.
I have found myself amazed at the fact that there were people praying for me that I did/do not know. This is not the first time that I have had someone tell me that she prayed for me during those months three years ago. How good is God's family!
