One Selfless Decision Changed a Family Forever
Jacob is well on his way to recovery!
Thanks be to God!
Words from my Brother-in-Law Jacob: I have mulled over what to say in this for days. I’ve come to the conclusion that I may never truly have the words to express my gratitude to Shelle Glover for sacrificing part of her body for my wellbeing. I am humbled and honored that she would selflessly give. She knew full well that there would be pain and the potential for complications as the donor, but she boldly moved forward. Thank you so much!
Shelle’s sacrifice is such a beautiful picture of God’s love for all of us. Each and every one of us. He speaks about it in John chapter 15. Jesus begins in verse 12, “This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.”. He continues speaking in verse 13, “Greater love has no one than this that one lay down his life for his friends.”. Thank you for loving a friend enough to lay down your life. I am so grateful that you are recovering well!
One of the joys through this process that I’ve shared is the tangible experience of the peace that passes all understanding. Shelle spoke of the same peace, that she was called to give of herself. I believe that her reward will be great in heaven.
Shelle, thank you from the bottom of my heart! I pray that the Lord blesses you greatly! He has worked a mighty work through you, and I am certain he has more great plans for you! You are my hero!
Many years ago I worked for an organization that had my favorite mission statement. The last part of the mission statement goes like this . . . That transforms guests [acquaintances] into friends, and friends into family. Shelle, welcome to the family!
Jacob isn’t someone who likes asking for help, but the reality is the insurance didn’t cover everything from his kidney transplant and recovery. If his story has touched you and you feel led to support him, any donation, prayer, or share truly helps lighten the load for him and his family.
