I have to share a very TRUE story of my own! Our youngest daughter, 'Stefanie', had a very special friend that been in her class with her from kindergarten to the 4th grade, and after telling our daughter she didn't feel well on a Friday at school, she was rushed to the hospital the next day with the progressed symptoms of bruising all over her body and cracked and bleeding lip, bleeding from the navel, etc. A week later, she went into a coma, after complaining of a severe pain in her head and after days of waiting for improvement and having no brain activity during that time, they allowed her body to die. Our daughter was, of course, devastated and wanted to have her friend, 'Bonnie', back from heaven. I told her that was not possible. She wanted to pray to her and asked if it would be okay! I told her, that whereas God is the only one we can pray to, He or Jesus would be glad to tell 'Bonnie' what she wanted her to hear, if she asked Him to deliver her message to her! She then asked me if 'Bonnie' could come back to her from heaven. I told her, "No, that is not possible and besides she's so happy there she doesn't want to come back!" That really upset her and she said "Well, I want her back!" Then she wanted to know if 'Bonnie' could talk to her from heaven? I said not really in a way she was expecting, but one day they would be together again to talk all they wanted! The next day, her 2nd grade teacher phoned me, to ask if she could give Stefanie something she found in her garage. She had gone out there and looked around and thought that she should really try to organize and throw away some stuff from previous classes she had been saving. She walked over to the very first box and right on the top of the contents was a note from 'Bonnie' to 'Stefanie', apparently written 2 years before! It said: "Dear Stefanie, You are my very best friend--I love you so much!!!! Love, Bonnie" Of course, I agreed that it would be a very good thing to give to Stefanie--in fact--'very timely'!! The next day, Stefanie came running in after school, leaped into my arms and told me how 'Bonnie' had written her a note and asked me if it was possible it came down from heaven? I told her, that it was more likely, that God knew that she would need to hear from 'Bonnie' that day, and so He made sure that it was saved and found at that very time, to be given to her!! I can certainly tell you, it impacted that little girl, greatly, at a very tender age and time to realize that God is so *in control* and knows what we will need, even before the need ever arises! And, that He is willing and faithful to meet the deepest needs of His children!! A truth, played out over and over in my own life!! He is so good to us!!
