On the Support page of our website (http://www.vitanovaindy.org/support.html) you can see that we have quite a list of prayer partners from several different states who pray continually for Vita Nova. Recently one of our students had a medical situation, and our prayer team instantly mobilized. The great news is that she is doing fine, but I wanted to share the comments from a friend of mine who is a scholar and member of Christian religious order in Italy. He wrote:
We usually pray only that the will of God takes place, but in this instance will make an exception and we'll pray also for her recovery. I realize firmly that sometimes one cannot follow the rule, and a little girl is a reason sufficient enough.
Indeed, we must always pray for God's will to be done, even if that will seems contrary to what we desire. Yet as my friend put it, a little girl is more than enough reason to pray earnestly and personally. From the way Jesus welcomed children, I am sure He would agree.
