As much as one wanted to run away from the hospital scene, Cass saw a ministry opportunity. She could not empathize only sympathize with those devastated mothers in the neonatal unit. Why did her children get to live while these mothers would soon bury their sick children? She could not offer them any guarantees save the hope found in Jesus. She was His arms…

We also have our own individual list which we meditate in our quite times. It has been a norm in our family for the past 22years and has never…
