A different sort of Sunday post

First, read this article:

A New Challenge

Now, take a few minutes and say a prayer for this good and holy man, that he may be restored to complete health and that the cancer may be totally gone.

I've read Ron's articles for years, but a few years ago, during a two year formation program I was taking part in, he was a guest speaker quite a number of times during the program and I got to know him and had lunch or supper with him numerous times. Yes, he is as intelligent as his writings portray him, but he's also a generous, interesting and interested, kind and thoughtful man. Just the sort of person that we need, and that our Lord needs to do His work on this earth. He can't leave it all up to the angels, after all! So, please pray for his return to complete health and that God bless the specialists and doctors that treat him, that he may be in the best of hands and get the best treatment available.

Of course, ultimately, I know he's in the best of Hands.

Thanks...
