A  SURPRISING  MESSAGE

One day in the year 2000 I sat quietly working at the computer in my office, when out of the blue a voice as clear as a bell spoke to my mind, "PRAY FOR DR. FRANCEL!"  Shocked at this unexpected message and its obvious urgency, I dropped everything and began to pray for every conceivable thing I could think of about him.  I felt desperate to zero in on the needed prayer as my mind searched frantically.  When I ran out of ideas I felt at peace, but yet wondered and asked God, "Why me?"

Then in a flash I knew the answer.  Why not me?  God realized, in his infinite wisdom, that I was perfect for the job because I prayed every day for Dr. Francel and his family.  He knew I would not fail him in this time of need to carry out his surprising command.

Since then, I have regretted not recording the date of the event so I could compare notes with Dr. Francel to see what was happening at that particular time.  I have always thought it was probably some problem during a surgery that needed some extra prayer power.  I will never know for sure.

Recently, I noticed a striking similarity between this story and Arnold's story, GUARDIAN ANGEL ON DUTY.  We both received an unexpected, urgent call to do something significant.  In Arnold's case I believe it saved his life.

I am thankful and joyful God called me to help my good friend Dr. Paul Francel and the general public in various ways:  by praying for Paul, writing the original story, getting our story on Beyond Chance on Lifetime Television, and now creating the web site.  God is doing a mighty work through Paul Francel and I am happy to play a very small part in His great scheme of providing good things for mankind.
