She came through the greeting line. She was a beautiful teenager. Long blond hair. Blue eyes. Cowboy boots. There were stylish holes in her jeans, a flower tattoo on her shoulder, and she wore a perpetual smile. I was shaking hands, signing books, kissing babies. Soon, it was the young woman’s turn in line, her mother introduced her to me.
You may be a forgetful old dork, but your lovely, tender words can certainly bring tears to my old, withered eyes. Now, the name Laura will always take me back to this sweet story. Thanks, Sean.
I bet you hugged her again, and all of you cried -- with joy. What a wonderful way to wake up at 5 AM, with a beautiful reminder that some are fighting a different war-- and winning! The Creator has blessed us all.
This morning we have all been “touched by the Master’s hand”.
I know the feeling of total despair when you are faced with the probable loss of your child due to the ugly cruel disease called cancer. For all of us who face this reality remember—
Then David said to his son Solomon, "Be strong and courageous, and act; do not fear nor be dismayed, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you until all the work for the service of the house of the LORD is finished.
"Ask and ye shall receive". And sometimes what you receive is just the blessing you asked for. I'm so glad you got to learn "the rest of the story".
Isn’t it interesting how a small act of kindness can make all the difference in another’s life. God bless you Sean.🙌🏻✝️
