As I sit up on Deck 8 with two amazing women... I am blessed with their presence. These women love the Lord, Have a passion to serve people (nurses on the ship) and to serve the Lord and their hearts reflect that of love and joy. A blessing it was to spend time on deck 8 and to hear a testimony of how Deb's life touched so many just through her desire to follow Jesus attentively. She shared her story with me one of such physical pain and emotional growth. She shouldn't be alive from the great heights that she had fallen and the amount of bones that she broke... her life is a blessing because of the Lord's Mercy and Hand in her life. As I listen to her I see the intimacy that she desires and that she has with the Lord. She speaks of Him with reverence and with love. Her life is a living example of how amazing God is and how if you give your ENTIRE life to Him, he will bless you in more ways that one. I know that the pain that she endured, the growth that she went through and the patience that she had during her accident; has, is and will be used to glorify God in more ways than one. Her joyful spirit and passion for life is contagious. It just goes to show you that if you trust in the Lord with all your heart you can get through anything. It is only through a miracle that Deb is sitting next to me telling me about her story. Her persistence to follow Jesus and be different changed her life completely... and whats more beautiful is that she was trusting the Lord through anything. She is an encouragement to me and I appreciate her life and the blessing of her story.
