I’d encourage Ann to cling to God’s character in spite of what her circumstances screamed.

I shared what we were learning, so that others might grow in their faith through the testing of ours.

Ann: How my heart has ached. How empty I have felt. How I’ve ached to hold my two babies.

I have no guarantee that God will choose to heal Ann, but I know he wants me to pray to that end.

DeeDee had to have a firm grasp on reality. Yet she knew God was bigger than a pathology report. So she prayed.

Ann prayed because of a gut-wrenching, throbbing pain in her soul. She urgently begged the Lord for her life.

We don’t know why God chose to deliver Peter from death and James through death. The text doesn’t say.

Their prayers impacted the outcome of the fight.

Because Ann learned to trust God fifteen years ago, she is able to trust God now with an even more difficult situation.

I needed to decide if I would still worship God if he allowed Matt to lose his eye.
