The significance of this blog may be more meaningful if you revisit previous stories about Dicy! I believe there are three, just take a glance!
Yesterday, I received a call from Dicy, I no longer have regular contact with her, since leaving my Little Debbie job. I was a little surprised to heard her sweet girlish voice, she sheepishly ask if I would do her a favor.
With a trembling voice, she asked if I would pray for her sister, Jeanie. "Will you please pray for her," the next time you are in church; tomorrow she is having surgery for liver cancer. The doctors are confident that they can remove the cancer and she may not even need chemo or radiation!
I suggested the we pray now! I paused, took a deep breath and waited for the Holy Spirit to provide me with the right words, that Dicy was so eagerly seeking.
1 Corinthian 2:12-13 We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by humans wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truth in spiritual words.
With heartfelt compassion, I began to pray; as I prayed, I heard Dicy`s loving tears begin to flow for her sister. By the time I finished, Dicy was sobbing, I imagined that her entire body was quivering, as I petitioned God on her behalf.
I am so thank to God, because of our growth and healing in His love, Dicy and I were able to share this special time of needed prayer. Twenty years of bitterness and unforgiving as been released by the healing power of the LORD! Once again, enforcing His message, ASAP, always, stop and pray!
Tears of love and joy, for the Lord trickled down my cheek, as Dicy and I shared a tender farewell! Dicy confidently assured me, that she never leaves home, without first making sure she has the small wooden cross that I gave her. This small cross, healed wounds, open hearts and allowed both of us to benefit from the precious gift that God so freely offers us!
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Psalm 107:19 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. Amen!
