I Will Cast My Cares on You!

Yesterday at school I had a young student who is confined to a wheelchair ask if he could use his phone to communicate with the nurse, by his dad's side in Mexico. I of course said yes, as he shared his dad was dying in Mexico, and he was planning a bus trip that evening to try and see him before he passed. He said the nurse there was asking now for permission for him to see his dad as he was under 18 and not allowed in that part of the hospital. Later in the day he informed me that the hospital had said no, he could not go in because of his age.

It was then I found myself sharing the story of when we moved to India from Istanbul and we were told no pets were allowed in and we had a cat. We attempted the journey anyway though and through an unlikely turn of events was able to get our cat in after all.

I encouraged the young man to try and I assured him I would pray for favor as he made his journey through the night. Based on their plans, he should be within an hour of approaching the hospital now and I would like to ask for prayer from all who read this post in the next few hours. I know God did it for me and he can do it for this young man. Thank you in advance for your prayers and being willing to be God's hands and feet right where you are.

Godspeed Claudio.....

Update on Claudio's dad. I was asking for favor for this young man to see his dad once last time before dying and unfortunately they decided not to make the trip because of the negative report, but God had a miracle in mind! Claudio's dad has made a miraculous turnaround after being given hours to live following a full blood transfusion and he will be released from the hospital in a couple days. The blood transfusion has resolved his symptoms, though he is still dealing with inoperable ulcers, he has been able to communicate with Claudio verbally and given the boy a ray of hope after all. Prior to today, he was resigned to being able to go to his dad's funeral, and was grateful for that. Now he has been given life! Wow! Wow! Go God! Thank you to all who have prayed and I trust you are encouraged and strengthened during your time of need, to trust in a living God who knows our every need! Blessings to all.....
