a sweet, young 24-year old friend of mine is facing a possible diagnosis of lung cancer. we are praying for a miracle. this is one of the recent email exchanges i have had with her cousin - a close friend who i've traveled with to bulgaria many times.
rhonda: as a result of this situation with Lisa, i went to the bookstore today to find some books on how to develop a better (more effective?) prayer life. jan
jan: That is exactly what the Lord has been speaking to me about (one of the many things). I have been amazed as I listen to Aunt Joyce (Lisa's mom) tell me how God prepared her in advance for this storm (He even gave her specific scriptures for this time); she did not know what the storm would be but He prepared her. That happened because she has a powerful prayer life. Joyce has such an intimate relationship with the Lord that she see God's powerful hand at work in and beyond this storm and she has that relationship because she spends time with Him. I love you friend. Rhonda
i am going to the hospital to visit lisa friday. i CAN'T WAIT to meet her mom!!

praying.
Jan, Thanks for your comment on my blog. I'm so glad the timing worked to bring some peace to you all as you waited for the final news. It sounds like she and my sister had the same type thing. Also, through your blog, I found your daughter's story. I soooo relate to many things I read there...and I love that quote...about how the heart is where they will always be...that thought brings me some peace.
God bless you and your family!
~Jenn
