A few years ago, I was in a
home for abused women in Canada. The first night I was alone
in a room full of empty beds and baby cribs. I felt so
alone, heart broken, scared and devastated. I dropped to my
knees and tearfully went to the Lord in prayer. By the light
of the night light beside the bed, I opened my Bible and
there is Psalm 119:105-106, He spoke to me saying, “I am a
light unto your feet and a lamp unto your path.”
I prayed, “Lord, please send
me someone to give me comfort. If only for a moment.” At
that, I went to sleep. I awoke through the night and heard a
baby laugh. I looked and in the crib at the foot of the bed
was the most beautiful baby with his hands outstretched.
Next to me in another bed was a young mother, stretching and
waking. So, I asked her if I could take her baby into my bed
with me. She agreed.
I took him in my arms and
took him into my bed. I hugged him to me as he smiled and
cooed. I cried out to the Lord and He answered me. He sent
me this precious baby as comfort for my hurting soul.

I prayed that my friend
Sheila would come out to Bible Study with me. I had only met
Shelia and we became friends. She told me about many things
that happened to her life and I told her that I was a
Christian and that I would pray for her. She cam and asked
if she could come to the Bible Study.
