My Friend Murrey

There is that which we call the power of imagination. There is also the power of prayer and faith to receive. I have duly noted that I had a friend that seemed to have most epitomized the power of imagination. He imagined and visualized something that he felt could and would happen in his lifetime. He pursued the power of prayer and believed with faith to receive. I knew that it was possible but did not think that it was probable. Murrey imagined that the US Supreme Court would overthrow the constitutionality of Roe VS Wade. To our utter delight, that is exactly what happened in his lifetime. I can only imagine the sheer joy and peace he experienced in his final days on this earth. How awesome. My dear friend passed away a few days ago at the age of 87. I last saw him in December of '21. I moved away in February of '22 and lost touch with him thereafter. A mutual friend called me yesterday, informing me of his passing. For many years he had great imagination of what could happen in the Pro-life movement. To the very end of his life, he was a dear and dedicated friend to the unborn and a champion of the pro-life movement. He founded two pro- life organizations and was personally able to save and rescue hundreds of babies who would have otherwise been aborted. 111222PS
