COOL STORY #2

On Wednesday we went 2 the nursing home 2 visit my great uncle who is dying of cancer. It's difficult 2 see someone who used 2 be so strong, now so weak that he can't even speak.

I've always liked my uncle Carl. Growing up, we'd always go to his & my aunt Eleanor's house on Christmas Day for a big family gathering.

Carl could be called what many would refer to as a real "man's man". I remember him being a tough guy on the outside while underneath being a real big teddy bear.

Spiritually, I don't think Carl was ever really interested in a relationship w/Christ. I think he always struggled w/the concept of needing help, including needing 2 have his sins forgiven by a loving God.

Over the years, I have prayed a lot for my uncle Carl, that God would soften his heart & bring him 2 the point of seeing his need 4 a Savior.

According 2 my aunt, Aleigha's death had a big impact on Carl. On Wednesday, I had the chance 2 talk 2 Carl again about Christ & 2 pray w/him to receive Christ! Isn't God awesome?
