I suffered a heart attack on August 12, 2013. I was transferred from an area hospital to a well-known heart and lung facility in a distant city. Two days later, as I lay waiting for bypass surgery, I received a card from my aunt. On the card was a bible verse, Joshua 1:9, which says to be strong and courageous, not afraid or discouraged, because "the Lord is with me wherever I go." Shortly thereafter, a nurse opened the blinds to this view...
It was confirmation that, in my hour of distress, God was with me, and from that moment on I was not afraid of what I was about to face.
