I
chose to volunteer for Rest Ministries
as the Share and Prayer Email Coordinator
because though there are many support
environments in the medical world, there
are few that are in a Christian atmosphere
or for people who are interested in
learning more about Christ.
We
support each other and understand each
others problems of coping with pain.
Share and prayer provides a place to
vent, support and uplift, and pray together,
giving glory to God.
Having
many chronic illnesses myself, I am
well aware of its importance. I felt
that the Lord was calling me to this
ministry long before I was aware of
Rest Ministries. I consistently saw
the need when hurting people would ask
for prayer and others would judge them
harshly or tell them to pray more. I
don't feel as though I am doing anything
special. I am just serving my Lord.
Love,
Anne
