Friday morning I headed to the gym to do my usual workout (5:45 - 6:45 a.m. each day). When I arrived I thought to myself, I haven't seen Cindy Fackler for awhile, wonder if she is here?
As I got to the top of the stairs she was in fact there and I continued on to the spin room. I thought, I should go see how she's doing. But I was already late for class so I just continued to my class.
About 30 minutes into the class I just couldn't get her out of my mind so I finally stopped resisting (worrying that she might be gone when my class ended) and headed over to her treadmill.
I smiled at her and asked her how she was doing. She smiled back and then teared up and said, fine until you got here! And laughed.
She then went on to tell me that her husband had gone to the emergency room the night before for blood clots and several other things she was struggling with. She talked for about 15 minutes and told me some of her worries and concerns and fears.
When she was finished I told her that the Lord was very aware of her and loved her as he had practically pushed me off my bike to come see her. I told her to please let me know how things went (follow-up dr appointment) and to let us know as a ward family if we could help in anyway. I truly felt the spirit with me as I spoke with her and felt Heavenly Father's love flowing from me to her.
It was a special experience.
