I was recently praying for a friend’s boss, who was having surgery on a brain tumor, and I asked God what verse I should pray for him. This verse popped into my head: This sickness will not end in death but will be for the glory of God that the Son of God may be glorified through it. John 11:4
So I prayed that way for him, that this would not end in death, but that God would be glorified.
Then, in an interesting series of events, my big, black horse was diagnosed with botulism. Botulism can be deadly and I was worried, so I prayed the same verse for him. You may be thinking that he’s just a horse and God has better things to do than heal a horse. But God brought that horse to me and He cares about what I care about.
Long story short, my friend’s boss did well in his surgery. And is already out of icu.
And Sampson is recovering from botulism under the care of a very special angel, Lisa Hiles. And I am so grateful and want to be sure that God gets the glory and that the Son of God is glorified, as the verse said. To Him be all the glory.
