This cartoon was provoked by something I saw on Facebook yesterday. Someone was thanking God for healing someone. They said something like, "God is awesome! We serve a God who always answers prayer!" Or something like that. I immediately thought of all the people who simply couldn't say that. At least not now. This picture popped into my mind of the two realities that can be experienced in adjacent hospital rooms: one has just lost someone and is in comp … (Read More)
