Our unstoppable God

For those who don't follow me on Instagram, you will likely not know what I am talking about here.
A dear friend, and dance teacher of Grace's, is in critical condition, after severe complications
during the birth of her fourth baby. We haven't quit praying. Cami is an absolute light to the world
and we can't quite wrap our minds around the fact that this is happening to her. But we do know
our God to be a God of mercy, miracles and goodness. We are so grateful for that knowledge.

 

 The last few times I have donated blood, it has given me a terrible rash at the needle
site, that spreads quite far and is extremely agitating for a couple of weeks. I actually
enjoy giving blood, as it feels like something small that truly makes a difference.
But of late, the result makes it hard to work up the will to actually make it happen.

But this morning, I got on the FB page for our sweet friend and Grace's dance teacher,
Cami, and saw that they were requesting blood donations. Not only that, but an anonymous
donor would give $20 to Cami's family for each of the first 100 people who donated.

And immediately, I knew that a couple of weeks of an annoying rash was nothing
compared to what Cami and her family are going through, not to mention the privilege
of helping anyone in a situation desperate enough for a blood transfusion.

Gratefully and miraculously, when I got on to make an appointment, they had one in an hour.

On the way to my appointment, I had my music playing and
from my speakers came these words to a favorite song...

Nothing can stop an unstoppable God.
He's not afraid of impossible odds.
This is the promise that I'm standing on.
Nothing can stop an unstoppable God.

That is indeed the promise I am standing on.
For Cami, for me, for so many I love, for all of us.

I testify that nothing can stop an unstoppable God. The outcome is one
He knows and that can forever be turned to our good. If we only turn to Him.

God is good. Always.
