I know it is early in the evening for me to have posted already. I don't think there is a single more beautiful thing than I saw tonight though. A client/friend sent me a text asking for prayer for a young man named Jimmy Turner. Jimmy had hung himself last night and he did not die. He is in a coma and having seizures. Jimmy doesn't know Jesus as his personal savior.
As I started praying, I realized I should ask others to pray too. I put the information that I had about Jimmy into a text and went through my contact list adding everyone I knew that prayed. As I checked each name, I realized what awesome men and women of God and powerful prayer warriors I had as friends. A large group of people willing to intercede for this young man that none of us know and will probably never meet; believing God to give him one more chance.
I believe that God spared his life last night to give Jimmy one more chance. That is something most people never get. I believe that right now his brain function is being restored and the blood vessels in his brain are regrowing, that any damage done to his organs is being restored and that he will make a full and complete recovery. It is my greatest hope though that Jimmy will know how many hundreds and possibly thousands of people prayed for him to have a second chance, and that God will be glorified in this process and Jimmy will come to know that God really does love him, that He cares for him and has good plans for his life.
