We were at Ibarra, City Heights, last Saturday. We had a great time there with worship from Mark Riley and his friends.
Every Saturday we offer prayer to people for healing, strength, their family or what ever reason they have on their heart.
So I made my way through the people to a woman who raised her hand for prayer. I prayed for her before, and know her from the
food lines. She was sad and I knew that there was something heavy on her heart.
So I asked her what she needed prayer for. She started crying and said that her cousin is in the hospital for awhile now with leukemia and some other
problems that aren’t known yet. I know how hard it is to have family in that situation and so I understood her pain.
She said the doctors said that they don’t have much hope.
I prayed for her cousin and for her and her family. Just a simple prayer, as good as it gets if English is not your first language. We said amen and I hugged her and her daughter. It was hard to let go, because I didn’t have a good feeling about the cousin.

Yesterday in the food line at Logan I saw her again and was excited to hear if there is anything new about her cousin. She smiled at me and said that her cousin is way better now, and that she is out of the hospital. We had a little conversation about her cousin and her family. Everything seems way better than it was. I was impressed that God did that.
And realized once again that it really doesn’t matter what we pray. It’s important that we pray and believe in the miracle of God’s work, even if it looks like there is no way.
