Ouchie Mama! Sophia broke her little arm today and had to have surgery. Many people were praying for her- family,Grandparents, Aunts, cousins friends, and people she doesn't even know were praying for her. I was even praying for her in the restroom at Borders!! Anyways, I came home and was trying to get caught up on Sophia's progress and I saw the e-photo Jerry had sent. Sophia looked so peaceful in her post surgery slumber-with her pink cast. I started to reflect on how small (and fragile!) children are and how they manage their pain when they get hurt. I was thinking of how I know, now more than ever before, to call on Jesus when I'm in pain, suffering, or having something as miniscule as a lousy day at work. Jesus comes through, in His on way, everytime. I do believe that our Heavenly Father does hear our cries and prayers. I prayed again for Sophia after looking at her picture and I also prayed for children all over the world that their bones would be healed and that they would receive a great sense of comfort.
I also read from the Gospel According to St. John when Jesus was talking to his disciples before his Last Supper:
" And whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son."(John 14:13)
"If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it. (John 14:14)
"And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that he may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you, and will be with you ." (John 14:16-17)
"But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you." (John 14:26)
