A Messsage and a Messenger

Many months ago, my oldest son and I decided we would pray for my youngest son. My oldest son said, "We should pray and thank God for his life and his health, then we should pray for God to send a message and a messenger to him." Later I added to that prayer that he would receive the message and the messenger. I started praying it also for my oldest son and myself from time to time. As I had mentioned in a previous blog my oldest son's child, Ian, has had some health issues. He has 2 dermoid cysts in his head. These are harmless cysts if they lie under the skin's surface and one of them is on the bridge of his nose, under the skin. No problem there, the other one however is embedded in the bone of his skull. The cyst could grow, wearing away the bone and growing into the brain. Therefore they have been directed to a children's neurosurgeon to show them the next step. I think my son is more concerned about all this than he lets on and was seeking God in prayer as he was getting ready for work a few days ago. He was wondering if God was listening, did he care and why did he seem so far away? My son is in sales. His first appointment was in an area he is never assigned to however, he goes to the house, makes the sale, and as he is writing up the paperwork, the homeowner asks him, "Do you have a young son?" My son answers, "Yes." The man says, "Did you recently get bad news about him? Does he have a cyst or tumor?" My son explained to him what was wrong and he (the homeowner) said, "Do you believe that Jesus Christ has all power over all things?" My son says, "Of course." The man says, "Do you believe that Jesus can heal your son?" My son says, "Yes." He then tells my son, "I am going to pray for complete healing for your son. You join with me in believing he will totally heal him and surgery won't be necessary." No one had told this gentleman about my grandson or anything my son had recently been through, he was in an area my son does not service, but God had a message and a messenger for him that morning, letting him know beyond a doubt that yes, he was there, yes, he did care and yes, he was listening. That is so amazing to me. God reveals himself to us when we truly seek him. What could be more amazing than that?
