Remembering – Update
16 May
Awhile back my wife blogged here after showing her this video:
Today following a great service we read that Zac was healed! The world might say that he lost his battle with cancer and went home to be with the Lord. Yes, he did in fact go home to be with the Lord but I don’t know if that is the best way to put it. You see Zac’s story has not only touched the lives of his family and friends, it didn’t only impact those who worked for him or the people in his church. Zac’s story has touched countless people in numbers that neither he nor his family could ever imagine. His statement “God is still God & God is still good” has become a mantra of our family and we will be forever different because of it. So to say he lost a battle with anything may not be the best way to put it. Yes his wife lost a husband, and his children lost a father & please don’t get me wrong, I feel for his wife and children, my heart goes out to those in his family. But, Heaven gained a man with a faith I dream of having. When we read the news this afternoon our whole family shed some tears as we prayed for them! Our prayer is that God would comfort them and bring peace, but also that this story of faith would continue to touch people all over the world. God give me that kind of faith! The kind of faith that can say with boldness that no matter what “God is still God and God is still good”
What an amazing life story. A story that will always be told because of the way the situation was looked at through the eyes of God. I’m learning more and more how to become more positive in my outlook, although I still have my days. No matter what…especially after reading this, I will try to live that same mantra: “God is still God and God is still good!” What a powerful message for the world to see, to know and to live out.
Thank you for sharing the story once again. It tugged at my heart and made a few adjustments, shifts and changes as I read.
