I've been here just about a month now and this post really should be about what I've been doing here with the youth and what plans are ahead for me in the ministry.... but it won't be.
A couple days ago I got news from back home that my cousin Abigail who is only in her early 30's, married with 3 kids has been diagnosed with something that I can't even pronounce. When my family was telling me what it was called, the connection for the phone was getting really choppy so I couldn't understand it. From what I know, she is fighting for her life and the doctors said that they would do everything possible to help but Abby has to keep fighting.
It really sucks that I can't be there with her. She and I have a really close relationship and to know that she's over there going through what she is going through hurts cause I wish I could be there for her.
But I can be there for her in another way.... Prayer. I can pray for her.
This is where you come in.... If you took the time to open this up, I'm asking you to take the time to say a prayer for her too. You might know her and you might not, but she is someone who needs prayer right now.
So from one friend to another, please keep her and the family in your prayers tonight.
Abby, if by chance you get to read this or someone reads it to you, just know that God is our rock, our sheppard and our salvation. No trials that come our way will shake us and we will fear nothing because our God is with us always.
