ONCE THERE WAS A LOVELY GIRL WHO, AT TWENTY YEARS OF AGE CAME TO LEARN HER BOOK OF LIFE WOULD NOT SEE ANOTHER PAGE... THE DOCTORS HAD NO EXPLANATIONS THERE WAS RESEARCH , BUT NO CURE THAT COULD SOMEHOW HALT THE CANCER THAT WOULD TAKE HER LIFE FOR SURE EVERYONE WHO HEARD THE NEWS WAS HORRIFIED BEYOND A DOUBT WHY A LOVING GOD WOULD CALL FOR THIS? NO ONE COULD FIGURE OUT!! WHAT HAD THIS SWEET YOUNG WOMAN DONE SO TERRIBLE IN HER LIFE TO SUFFER SUCH PAIN AND MISERY A DEATH FILLED WITH SO MUCH STRIFE!! THEY SHOOK HEADS AND FISTS GALORE FOR THEY COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE LORD WOULD CHOOSE ONE SUCH AS HER AGAINST WHOM TO RAISE HIS HAND.. BUT THE GIRL HERSELF, WHOSE FAITH WAS STRONG AND CENTERED FIRMLY ON THE LORD PRAYED FOR THOSE WHO VOICED SUCH DOUBTS TOGETHER WITH ONE ACCORD MANY OF THOSE WHO WERE THE LOUDEST ATTENDED HER CHURCH IN THE TOWN SO SHE SENT FOR THE PASTOR WHO QUICKLY CAME AROUND... HE HUGGED HER WITH A GENTLE SMILE AND TOOK A SEAT BESIDE HER BED "TELL ME WHAT YOU NEED TO CHILD CLEAR OUT YOUR HEART AND HEAD!" "REVEREND, I MUST HAVE YOUR WORD ABOUT JUST ONE IMPORTANT THING THAT INVOLVES MY DEATH AND VISITATION" HER VOICE HAD A SOLEMN RING. "CHILD, YOU MUST NOT WORRY...
