“How God’s hand moves when we trust Him”,
she goes on, “when we reach out to Him, His hand is moving out to us. He’s
right there. One night I lay there while my husband slept in his easy chair in
the next room. I prayed. ‘God I really
want to talk with Brian. Would you wake Him up?’ Immediately I heard him stir and climb out of
his chair. He came into the room saying, ‘I don’t know what woke me up.’ But
I knew!”
She continues, ‘You know, I still
have work to do, to reach people.’ ‘She ministers to
everyone she meets’, Brian had told me. She goes on, “My doctor told me”, ‘I
know your work isn’t done yet. Your
attitude is wonderful.’ She says, ‘I
told my doctor one day that I saw green bushes along the way as I went to feed
my horses. My husband told me there were no green bushes. The doctor told me
that folks often hallucinate with my kind of surgery. But he said that they
often see terrible things’. She said, ‘Sometimes
I see children on white ponies.’ Her
doctor responded - ‘I love you, Patti. It tells me who you are as a
person.’
Whose doctor says that!? What a place this world would be if we all ministered in a
God-drenched world like Patti does!
