My second overseas trip was to Europe. Many of my friends had already been to or lived in Europe in some form or fashion and I had heard all of their stories and was itching to get there myself. I had several reasons for going:
- My main motivation for the trip was to go to Poland and meet the family of my girl friend, Ewa. I needed to know if I could live in Poland as I was considering marrying her. Consequently getting exposure to the culture and language was pretty important to me.
- I wanted to spend some time with a great friend of mine, Kevin, in Holland. I had met him in Texas, and he had been working and living in Holland for close to a year and I wanted to catch up with him.
- I had some graphic arts film negatives to deliver to an organization in Austria. They were translating some Christian discipleship tracts into various eastern European languages and the art work for these tracts was on the film I was delivering.
- I wanted to accompany a professor of mine and visit our mutual friend Janis, in his home country, Latvia. I had worked and gone to school with him in Texas for a while and I wanted to see him in his home country.
What’s the price of two or three pet canaries? Some loose change, right? But God never overlooks a single one. And he pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head! So don’t be intimidated by all this bully talk. You’re worth more than a million canaries.
Luke 12:6-7
God Cares
I don't remember exactly how our conversation went surrounding this concern, but Ewa and I agreed to pray about this wart and ask God to remove it. We prayed and then moved on to other things.
God definitely heard that prayer, as within 2-3 weeks the wart on Ewa's finger was completely gone!
God is our healer and He cares about our concerns!
