Life

As I sat in the waiting room over the past couple of weeks, a lot of people came to visit us and bring us food. And each of them had stories to tell of how my Dad had touched their lives. He's made a huge impact. And obviously, God isn't done with him.

Even though he feels a little down right now, stuck in the ICU with limited physical ability, he's making a difference. Even when he was in an induced coma, he was touching lives. You see, my Dad loves music. So we brought in a CD player and were playing some Christian music for him while he slept.

And one of his nurses came in after he'd woken up and said after taking care of him, she'd had one of those songs stuck in her head all weekend. And she decided to start listening to Christian music - and it wasn't so bad. She's going to keep listening. Who knows, maybe one of those lyrics will strike a chord in her heart someday, and she'll decide she needs Jesus.

You don't have to be concious to touch lives. And it's so fitting that even when he wasn't awake, my Dad was able to use music to reach out to someone.
