tu estas aqui

On Friday we visited the nursing home  in Puerto Barrios again. After such a long morning I was spiritually drained and my joy was nowhere to be found. But for about a week the Lord had been putting a lady there on my heart: I don’t know her name or her story but I know that the Lord loves her, and as my sister I care about her well being. She has some problem that has caused extreme infection in both of her ankles- bone, tissue, and veins are exposed. The spirit had been prompting me to pray with this lady for healing.

How humbling it was that even when I have no joy and no strength, it doesn’t matter, because God’s glory has nothing to do with me. As we began to boldly approach the throne of God and ask him to show his faithfulness and glory I quieted to hear her whispering, “Padre, tu estas aqui. Gracias Padre, tu estas aqui.” And let me tell you that we were in the presence of God. There is no doubt in my mind that next time we return to the nursing home she will be healed.
