This is something that I read this morning. I was really encouraged.

The Master Builder
Years ago, a man was driving his car down the road when his engine sputtered and stalled. Try as he might, the driver could not restart the engine. As he stood glaring at it, a poloshed black limo pulled up beside him. The chauffeur hastily jumped out and opened the back door for an elegantly dressed gentleman. The man asked the driver about his problem and offered to take a look under the hood. The man scoffed at the idea of such a finely dressed man having any knowledge of mechanics, but no one had stopped to help, so accepted the assistance and threw open the hood.
The gentleman leaned over the engine, twisted a few wires, tapped a few cables and tightened a few plugs. Then he told the driver to try and start the car. This time, the car responded immediately.
As he closed the hood, the driver thanked the gentleman profusely. Then he asked for his name.
The gentleman replied simply, "Henry Ford."
Henry Ford made the car, so he had known exactly what was wrong with it and how to fix it! Jesus Christ is the One by Whom, for Whom, and through Whom everything was made. He knows what's wrong in your life and how to fix it.

The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart,
and saves such as have a contrite spirit.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord delivers him out of them all.
Psalm 34:18-19

Hey Nate,
Saw your post on the Capernwray website... crazy to hear your story. But you are strong, and I pray the Lord will answer your prayers! You're going on my prayer board at home! Just thought I'd let you know I'm thinking of you and will look forward to hearing about your transplant, which I pray the Lord provides! ~Amy (Means) Olson... Olsonmusic@hotmail.com
