Good and Evil

When Good meets Evil. It happens every day. We all see it. Sometimes we just tend to block it out or some days we are just too busy to take notice.

Yesterday, it was pretty blatant and it was just too hard to miss.

I had a patient who is drawing near the EOL (End-of-life). She is becoming very restless. She says she had to go. Several of us were in the room. Some people want to restrain her but I like to find out what is going on so I started to ask her questions. So I started with, "Where are you going?"

"Over there, don't you see it?"

"Tell me about it" I said.

"That beautiful place, and that big house. The group is here to take me."

"Tell me more." I wanted to hear. For I knew I was on holy ground.

It had been a long time since I had seen this lady smile. This same lady that I had been sharing Jesus with some weeks ago.

"The Man has been talking to me. He's nice. "And in the background of her room was Pat Roberts from the 400 club talking about Jesus.

She is on her journey home.

On the other side of town is a man. We are not sure of his spiritual belief's. There has been concern. He is very young. He is dying. Yesterday, as his mom sat with him in his unresponsive state, she noticed a horrible smell. She could not imagine where it came from. It came and went very quickly.

Her son whom had not be responsive in some time woke up and said, "Take this pillow away, it smells horrible." He went back to his deep sleep. The mom and nurses smelled the pillow and there was no odor. There had only been the brief encounter with the most horrid odor the mother had ever smelled.

What did this mean? She cried.

Good?

Evil?

We have a choice.

For those that do not believe, think it's not real, go ahead and think that way.

One day, the truth will be told.

We know how the story ends.
