I have just arrived back in Manchester for the weekend and have been given an envelope from G, whose husband V, recently died. Inside the envelope was a copy of the order of service from the funeral (which lasted 4 hours!) and a personal note from G to myself. As I was reading it, it was incredibly hard to hold back the tears. She said they used to pray for ME every day, and she has done only since he passed away. I'm always moved when people pray for me, but to hear that they used to do it every day, is just overwhellming.
She also wrote that he once said "I do hope that Jennifer is not trying to do TOO many things all at once. She really should concentrate on her nursing training now and afterwards she can spread her wings for the Kingdom." This part made me smile. I know exactly what he means, but surely my nursing training is part of my wing spreading for the Kingdom? I'm glad that he saw my activities as doing God's work, sometimes I feel like I'm just flapping around, and not really spreading out my wings.
