The beauty of Jesus

Yesterday I saw Jesus clearly radiating from a friend's face........ I've never experienced anything quite like it before (sad I know... but true!) This friend has cancer and I was visiting her whilst she was undergoing Chemo.... Iwas a bit anxious about it as I'd never been in a ward where everyone has cancer....... in fact the last time I spent with someone suffering with cancer was when I watched my dad die.
Anyway, all I can say is that my visit blessed me more than I can put into words! I walked into the ward and my friend was testifying to a new and frightened patient, telling her about how God was carrying her through and promising to pray for her..... of how good God is and how Faithful He is!
I spent just under an hour with her and came away knowing that I'd spent that time in the presence of God - On my way back to work the Army chorus ran through my mind "Let the beauty of Jesus be seen in me........." Well His beauty certainly showed in my friend's face - He lit up the ward!!!
What a challenge...... I came away truly blessed but feeling very humbled - lots to ponder.
