Just read this post - Praying For The Chair by Jim at A Place For The God-Hungry!
Her name was Emma Daniel Gray.
Just the other day, she passed away.
I think many of us will be surprised to find that the person who does his/her job with a servant-hearted attitude as unto the Lord, a life-time of perhaps not being recognized by those they so lovingly serve, and possibly a feeling of not ever having made a difference, are, in fact, in God's eyes, the greater movers and shakers of this world than those who think much to highly of themselves - and we of them! I know that's a long sentence, but that's just how it poured out of my heart!
Loved the story! I'm sure there are many more like it that never make the news - yet God sees them all.

What a great post about a wonderful lady. Thanks for the link and for your very wise words.
Emma Gray must have been loved by all who knew her. Neat tribute to her!
Hugs,

Thanks for the reminder to pray for the people I clean for. Sometimes I do, but not nearly enough.
You can pray for a chair, Karin??? Oy, I am surprised... :)
Thank you so much Karin for your lovely comment the other day. I really appreciate your words. Sometimes it's difficult to things from the outside and to see that we are strong and where that strength is coming from.
