Too close

The last few days have been emotional.

One of our good friends, Dan Goddard, almost died. He had a blot clot in his right leg. They operated twice in two days. The doctors said it was a miracle the blood clot dissolved. (We know better!).

We had the privilege of seeing him on Sunday afternoon. He shared how he had a lot of time to think, to put his house in order. Jay and David were with us and Dan really laid down the line to them. All of us were in tears.

Brian and Dan are crazy together - they are truly twin sons of different mothers. Both of them love Jesus so much. They both are on the verge of doing amazingly great things for God. Both of them are under massive spiritual warfare. They both are doing to make it through to the glory of God.

Not only that, but Dan has an incredible relationship with Jay and David. They respect him, love him and truly value what he thinks.

It brings tears to my eyes to think of how close we came to losing him. I am going to spend time appreciating those around me, telling them how much I love them and thanking God for the blessings He has bestowed on me.
