Too Close to See

At last week's Lenten Luncheon, the speaker told us about racing up I-79 to Western Pennsylvania to be with his mother before she died.  As he was driving, he was dreading making it to his destination.

Once he was finally there - and he made it in time to keep watch by his mother's bedside - a friend called him and told him that she was praying for him and his family.  She said she was certain he would encounter to Spirit of God that day.  He said, "She knew more about what was going on in that room, from 120 miles away, than I did."  He doubted her words, but through the night, realized she was right.

Sometimes it takes a Christian friend to help us to see God, especially when we are too close to see him.
