Have you ever put off or passed on the opportunity to speak of
God into someone's life? Most of us have out of fear of what are they going to
think, what if I am making the wrong assumption, etc..
Because I was in a hospital today that doesn’t allow you to
"impose" your beliefs on your patients, God had another idea. I only
had one patient and it was definitely God appointed. This patient was at the
end stages of colon cancer and she just recently found out so she is going
through a grieving process, her and her family.
All day she was one on one, staying on top of pain medications
and being at her side while she was sick. By the end of my shift she was pretty
much sedated but my heart was unsettled because from all appearances she was
not saved. How could I leave her without giving her a chance to accept Christ?
I had prayed over her all day for healing, for peace and for salvation. I
talked earlier with her grandmother about healing and told her I had seen
healing and I believed it could happen for her granddaughter. She agreed, for
she had witnessed a miracle in her own life before.
I made one last stop before leaving for the night. She was not
alert but I had to say something, so I told her she didn’t have to fear death
because there was life after life. I shared with her briefly about having a
relationship with Christ and all she had to do was to ask Him to come into her
life. As I waited by her side for another minute, she suddenly squeezed my
hand. I knew she had heard me.
Thank you Lord for allowing me to be your vessel, to show Your
love, mercy and grace.
