Mary's
Testimony
September
5, 1997 (The
day Mother Theresa was taken home to Heaven)
That
morning I walked "the hill" (a 20 min. walk up the hill and back
home) .as I was saying my rosary, the word "ASK"
came to me (it came not in a voice but "knowledge" as
a command that this was for someone...but WHO?). When I returned
home, I told my mom (she lives next door) what happened on my walk
and that I didn't understand who it was meant for. What I did know
was that the word "ASK"
is a passage in [ Matthew 7, 7-8]
"...ask
and it will be given to you; seek
and you will find; knock
and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks,
receives; and the one who seeks,
finds; and to the one who knocks,
the door will be opened".
At
4:00 pm Wendy (my daughter) calls to tell me that her dad (Bob)
called and told her he was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer...he
had 4 to 6 months to live and he was immediately retiring from the
police department (Bellingham, Washington).
I
called Bob (I then knew the word "ASK"
was for him)...we talked about LIFE...we talked about what he was
going to do...then I said "Bob how is your spiritual life"? He said
"I believe there is a God, I see him in the trees, in the mountains".
I then shared with him what happened on my walk that day. I said
"Bob ask God to reveal himself
to you, seek Him every
day and don't stop knocking
until He calls you home".
Bob
was taken home 4 months later on 1-12-98 (Valerie, his wife told
me that the week before Bob was taken home to heaven, a neighbor
was in the room with Bob and said, Bob came out of his semi-coma
state...saying there were 3 angles in his room...then he returned
back to his semi-coma state). |
