“Found God”


Father God, let this touch Somone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
I had this friend Carol. Growing up and in the fourth grade. She had several open-heart surgeries since birth. She had blonde Curley hair and was really thin. It was because she was always sick. Carol had a bad heart. We used to be in the same classes together. This is because we were in the same school together. Well, I asked Carol one day if she could go to church with us. This man Mr. Sargent used to pick us up and take us to church and Mr. Sargent would bring us home. I told Carol he could probably take and pick her up. Carol had asked her mom and then Carol went to our church with us. Her mom brought her. We sang in the choir, so the choir teacher let Carol come upstairs in the balcony with us. She told Carol it was alright cause we were friends. Carol was funny, she sang even though she didn’t know the words. No one knew. Just Carol and me. My sister didn’t even know. If she did, she didn’t say nothing. So, my choir teacher asked Carol if she wanted to join the choir. Carol did. She showed up on Wednesday evening’s and was practicing with us. Carol got to sing with us on Sundays in the Balcony. I loved hanging out with Carol and time went by. We also had an older guy who would sing opera. We would try to sing like him. So funny. That guy sang opera so good. One day Carol told me that she ‘Found Jesus” I said where did you find him. Where is He. She laughed and said right here in my heart. I was there when she got baptized, because they did it on Sunday at the end of service. I don’t know how long it was after that. Carol stopped coming to school. I didn’t find out why, until the choir teacher was talking with Carols mom. That Carol had passed away. I remember getting upset and Carols mom hugging me. I look back at this and I was glad that Carol had Jesus in her heart before she passed away. We had some good memories and times together. Now she sings with the angels.
It reads in Isaiah 40:28-31.
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall.
But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
They will walk and not be faint.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You that You know the plans You have for us. To prosper us and not to harm us. To give Us a hope and a future. I know that our strength can only be found in Jesus Christ. I believe that we can truly rise above all the difficulties of life and run with patient endurance the race that is set before, looking to Jesus as we meditate day and night on Your truths and promises that never fail. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
