Some of you know my story. I published it a while back under the title “Running in Heels: A Memoir of Grit and Grace.” I invite you to consider a recent blog post about an instrumental character in my journey. You can read it here: https://wp.me/p3iDKm-3yS. This dear one knew how to put feet to her prayers! And she touched many, many lives, pointing them to Jesus.
I am asking all saints to please pray. This precious one is now bedridden with ALS. This condition is often called Lou Gehrig’s disease. We know that nothing is too difficult for God. Please lift up Liz and her entire family in your prayers, for God’s will be done in her life. Thank you!!!
James 5:16: “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”
I love you, Liz. I thank God for you.
Update: I shall miss you, my precious friend. Until we meet again.

Reflections From the Heart 
I will certainly pray for your friend. I lost a blogging friend to ALS, have both a family member and a friend now w/ Parkinson’s Disease, and still another friend whose husband has dementia.
Such illnesses are so severe we grieve even before a loved one is gone. But we know that those who believe in Christ enter into their eternal reward, when the time comes. Meanwhile, may God grant you the peace that passes understanding.

Dear Anna, thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments. My dear fiend was diagnosed last April and this precious soul went on to be with Jesus a couple of weeks ago. She was a true worshiper, an encourager, a woman who ptayed putting feet to those prayers. She was my neighbor who saved my life as a young hurting teenager wife and mother – I had to mention her in my memoirs in “Running in Heels: A Memoir of Grit and Grace” https://a.co/d/djKVWv1. Yes, I am comforted knowing she is no longer suffering and I will see her again one day. (Please send me your email address.)
