Last Wednesday, I was taken by ambulance to Hillcrest ER, then admitted to the OK Heart Institute that evening for extensive testing. The next 24 hours were a very frightening time for my family, friends, and myself, as we waited for the results of all of the testing. For a time the doctors thought I had a blood clot on my lung, and there were many unknowns about the condition of my heart. I am only 48 and still have children at home.
During that waiting time a large group of people, children and adults, walked cheerfully down the hall at the OHI, carrying many bags filled with all kinds of goodies. They gave me a bag and much needed hugs and smiles.
I know this was probably very scary for the children that were there – so many very sick people – but they were spreading hope and courage and kindness to people who were in great need. I know I was one of them.
I wanted to thank you and ask you to thank all of that group for me! I have been a Christian for many years and have a strong faith in the Lord, but my faith was being tested those two days and I needed to see “Jesus with skin on”. That’s what that group was to me.
THANK YOU! God is using you in a great way, and your ministry has been an inspiration to me and many others!
Peace and Joy,
