2 Peter 1:19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
The rising star...in our hearts. It seems that everyday I awake...there is that rising star. Given another day to thank God for and pray for His continual guidance to those in need.
Today, I met with my loving nurse, Kim. She is always so helpful in answers that I don't have about...well, about many things. Not just medical, but personally understanding the place of our hearts.
Then, about 2 hours early, I was trying to find my Wound Care, Dr. Allen's office. It is a bit trying, there are many turns and some construction pieces for rebuilding. On the first floor, I saw this man, just a bit younger than me. ( It's like God shows me who I should speak with...within the hundreds I see.) He was walking very slowly on a cane, and visibly in pain.
I started talking with him and found out his name is Steve. He told me where he was going on the 5th floor. Exactly where I needed to go in a couple of hours. So, I held his good hand with my good hand and we slowly headed to the elevator. We got up to the office and he reminded me which way to turn. Then Steve said; "this is going to be the end of me". Well, you know how that turned out, because I do not believe that. I shared the story of butterflies from the cocoon, and about Jesus giving his precious life for us. I had time...he had to move very slowly.
"We are just like those worms in a cocoon that are wrapped in His love. And one day that morning star, will shine the light, that is needed to rise the furthest in our hearts, to Him."
When I left Steve after setting him carefully in the chair, I let go of his hand and blew him a kiss..saying "but wait...there is more"!! I think I saw a bit of hope in him. I am holding him in my prayers. He will be surrounded by His Glory! I can only Imagine!
(please pray for Steve.....)
