A New Hope. John 5:24

I know many of you are probably thinking that's a Star Wars reference but it isn't (even though it does look like one). I find it very interesting that yesterday morning I felt the need to quote the verse, Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what today may bring forth. (Proverbs 27:1).

Yesterday afternoon we found out that my Grandpa Primo has cancer. They discovered the cancer when they analyzed the fluid that was drained from his lungs. He needs a lot of prayers because Kaiser is going to make him wait until next Friday before they will meet with him to discuss his options and how they will detect where and how severe the cancer is. He has cancer and the fluid is filling up his lungs, he could literally drown in his lungs!! Does it really need to take that long to find out something so important like that?? I can't believe that next Friday is the soonest they can do this, it is so ridiculous!! Right now, I can not focus on those things but instead focus on being there for my Grandpa. During this time I have been comforted by the verse John 5:24, I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. 

It brings me comfort because I know that my Grandpa is a believer in God and Jesus Christ is his Lord and Savior. Please continue to pray for my Grandpa, his doctors, and his family.
