A new book
This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. Yesterday I visited a dear friend who worked with me at the hospital in the 90's. She had a book for me, 90 Minutes in Heaven, which I immediately came home and started reading. The first few chapters tell of this pastor's journey to Heaven and how he was welcomed and all about the beautiful choirs of music. I am now in the bulk of the book where he is alive again due to the prayers of a fellow pastor who came upon the accident the man had been involved in. It is a difficult book to put down. We are ready to go to a graduation party for a very special young man, Zac, who at age 2 had a liver transplant. Today, he is a handsome, active, loving boy who is doing well, despite lots of meds that he takes daily. He does not complain about monthly blood draws or doctor visits. I am very proud of him and his family. His grandmother is my best friend. It is very clear to me, those days at IUMC and then at Riley in Indy; we stayed at the Ronald McDonald House, waiting and praying, and the LORD heard and answered our prayers, just like the man in the book. Also, this evening, our niece, Janelle, graduates from high school. She is a VERY good student, we are proud again, in a good way, you know.....She has to give a speech this evening, so I have been praying for her to be at ease while she is up before many. She is a lovely girl. She has already been on two mission trips, and loves the Lord and serves Him at every opportunity. This is a busy day. A new book, a miracle boy, and a lovely niece. We shall celebrate. Blessings to all. F.

I've read that book, Fran! It's a good one.
Wow, can't believe Zac and Janelle are old enough to graduate. Time sure does fly.
