Dear Amelia, God has
blessed me all my life. I have a great one when my first child was born dead and how
she was brought back and had no brain damage and has lived a normal life and is 25
years old now. That blessing brought me to the Lord. The next greatest one was when
my husband had his first bout with cancer. The operation they did was a very big and hard
one, but he made it only to take lung problems. He was in ICU for almost 3 weeks and did
not know there was a world. They was no medications that could help him. He had taken ARDS
(Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome). You either got well or died. By the time the prayer
chains had gotten through he was being prayed for around the world and I took him home in
4 days after the prayers started and the doctors could not believe what they were seeing.
Then a little over two years later his cancer returned and this time nothing could stop
here on earth. But I knew this time he was ready to go home and be with his Lord. The
cancer grew almost over night. He went in three months from walking to a wheelchair and
then to heaven. The last week of his life he was in so much pain and the cancer had gone
to his brain and he could not talk. The night before he died, he died early in the
morning). I had him lying in the den where I could watch him. My mother was setting with
me and we heard him talking to the Lord as plain as he had ever talked in his life. We
both heard him say "Yes Lord I am ready and I am not afraid because I know you
are going to take good care of me." He went to the hospital at 11:30 that night
and past away at 5:30 am. I was in his room and his pain was so great, I took him by the
had and prayed to God. I told God that my husband needed Him more than ever now and I
wanted his pain to stop. I prayed for God to come and take him home and make him well. The
nurse then asked us to leave the room so she could clean out his airway. He died when she
went to turn him over. When I walked back into room, there was a glow and a warmth and I
could feel Heaven in that room and the Jesus was there. My husband had a tumor on his side
the size of a golf ball and one behind his ear the size of a silver dollar, that made his
ear stick straight out. They were gone. I mean completely gone. He was so at peace and
looked like he had never been ill a day in his life. He was only 44 years old. We had been
married for 24 years and have three great kids, two girls and son. God gave my husband a
son before he died. Our son was only 7 when he lost his dad. But I will never forget the
way God's love filled that hospital room and the comfort He gave me, in a way that only
God can. I could write a book on the wonderful things God has done for me my whole life.
My prayer is that everyone would come to know the wonderful God that I know. I love your
site and what it shares with everyone. Keep up this blessing. In Jesus Love,
Jackie
