The Powerful Funeral

I just attended a 4 hour funeral in Romania this morning.  Well, it felt like it—it was a live webcast.  My dear friend Calin’s dad, Theo Ciuciui died unexpectly three days ago from a heart attack.

We Know That In All Things God Works for the Good of Those Who Love Him
  On July 4th,  eleven years ago today, our daughter Hannah was diagnosed with rheumatic fever. It all started when we were on our beach vacation. On the second night, Hannah started to run a fever of 104.5 degrees. We prayed for her then gave her ibuprofen and acetaminophen--back to back. The fever wouldn't budge.  It was staying high throughout the ni[...]
