The power of prayer...

 Yesterday I had the privilege of meeting an old friend, Mme Mejule, whom I hadn't seen for 4 years... We used to be almost neighbors when we both lived in Allegre... It was so nice to get caught up on our lives of the past 4 years... She has 7 living children and is expecting her 8th. Her husband was not a Christian while they lived in Allegre even though he would make professions from time to time... He wasn't always faithful to his wife, and could be hard to get along with sometimes... She told me how she would pray earnestly that God would give her, in Mejule, the kind of Christian man and leader that she needed. Mejule would hear her praying sometimes and it would make him so angry! He would say, "You want me to die, so that you can have another husband?!" But she kept on praying and God answered those prayers... Mejule gave his life to the Lord and now thanks God for a wife that cared enough for his soul to pray for him like that!!! It is so exciting to her to finally be able to serve the Lord together with her husband!
