Needed & Sent

God puts us where we are needed. We just have to respond to the need.

While on my way to Pitt Memorial Hospital last Saturday to visit my Aunt Hallie my phone rang. It was Mr. Thomas, a friend I had made weeks earlier while at Pitt Hospital with my mom. He was calling to tell me about his decision to remove life support from his wife. He was hurting inside and was reaching out to me. But what Mr. Thomas did not know was that God had a plan. I wasn't 700 miles away when I answered my phone, I was only 30 miles and headed in his direction. What a special few hours we shared. We laughed, we cried, and we prayed together. Yes, God puts us where we are needed, we just have to respond to the need.

Psalm 121:2 My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.(NKJV)

Father, I am still waiting for another call from Mr. Thomas as he waits on You. Be near to my friend and his family and put others there to help in his time of need. In Jesus Name. Amen.
