The Heart "Tomorrow morning," the surgeon began, "I'll open up your heart..." "You'll find Jesus there," the boy interrupted. The surgeon looked up, annoyed "I'll cut your heart open," he continued, to see how much damage has been done..." "But when you open up my heart, you'll find Jesus in there," said the boy. The surgeon looked to the parents, who sat quietly."When I see how much damage has been done, I'll sew your heart and chest back up, and I'll plan what to do next." "But you'll find Jesus in my heart. The Bible says He lives there. The hymns all say He lives there. You'll find Him in my heart." The surgeon had had enough. "I'll tell you what I'll find in your heart. I'll find damaged muscle, low blood supply, and weakened vessels. And I'll find out if I can make you well." "You'll find Jesus there too. He lives there." The surgeon left. The surgeon sat in his office, recording his notes from the surgery, "...damaged aorta, damaged pulmonary vein, widespread muscle degeneration. No hope for transplant, no hope for cure. Therapy: painkillers and bed rest". Prognosis:,here he paused, "death within one year." He stopped the recorder, but there was more to be said. "Why?" he asked aloud. "Why did You do this? You've put him here; You've put him in this pain; and You've cursed him to an early death. Why?" The Lord answered and said, "The boy, My lamb, was not meant for your flock for long, for he is a part of My flock, and will forever be. Here, in My flock, he will feel no pain, and will be comforted as you cannot imagine. His parents will one day join him here, and they will know peace, and My flock will continue to grow." The surgeon's tears were hot, but his anger was hotter. "You created that boy, and You created that heart. He'll be dead in months. Why?" The Lord answered, "The boy, My lamb, shall return to My flock, for He has Done his duty: I did not put My lamb with your flock to lose him, but to retrieve another lost lamb." The surgeon wept. The surgeon sat beside the boy's bed; the boy's parents sat across from him. The boy awoke and whispered, "Did you cut open my heart?" "Yes," said the surgeon. "What did you find?" asked the boy. "I found Jesus there," said the surgeon *Author Unknown That's my Savior, That's my Jesus!! Elizabeth

ok. You're right. It's a tearjerker. Good thing us "peculiar" people are used to being big ole' cry babies. Whaaaaaaaaaaa! Love ya, Liz. Note: Some of the children I have taken in are not even able to cry. How many walls of defence that were built to stop the pain!! The good news, these children all got to the point they could cry. Romans 14 verse 5 One person regards one day holier than other days, and another regards them all alike. 3 Each must be fully convinced in his own mind.

And HE gathered another into the fold. Jesus does use children sometimes to make us ADULTS see the light. Wonderful message-although I wished the little boy could live. Yesterday is past and gone, but tomorrow is forever.

That was so wonderful. It was hard to read through the tears, but it was worth it.

Reminds us of what is truly important. It seems to me that God would rather us live an entire lifetime of pain and suffering if the result is a single moment when we accept Him into our lives. Sometimes we wonder why God allows terrible things to happen, but we must remember we only see what is directly in front of us. We don't see the ripple effect that results from any circumstance that happens. How much is one saved soul worth? In God's eyes, I believe it is worth the entire universe.
