The Good:
The doors opened onto a hallway much different than the one she had left. There were paintings on the walls, fancy tapestries, and smooth oak baseboard running the length of the hardwood floor. She stepped off of the elevator, turned and gasped. A man stood to her left; though he was as still as night, he had frightened her all the same.

Daily Stumbling Block:
I didn't feel like finishing the scene I was in, so I skipped ahead and wrote a future one. I hope that's okay.

Prayer Request:
A friend of mine sent over a prayer request. He's from Oregon, but the man in need of prayer, Seth, lives near Sacramento. He was in an auto accident and it looks like they are struggling to keep him alive. He has a wife who is four months pregnant, and two daughters, 6 and 3. He's in his late 20's.
This struck me particularly hard, mainly because of the similarities between me and this man. I am in my late 20's; and I also have a wife and two daughters, though they are a little younger. It's just amazing that, as I sit here typing, there is a man fighting for his life, and a family close to suffering an unutterable loss. So pray for a miracle, that this man might be spared and dwell with his family for many years.
