No matter who she asked, the answer was never acceptable. Being a Christian she felt an empty fear in her heart when she thought about death, she needed answers. So, she prayed. When she became a nurse, death was a normal part of the job at times, and this became very difficult. She prayed for God to please take her fear of death, and her confusion of heaven away so she could be more help to her patients, whom she dearly loved. After a couple of years and obviously the work of the Lord, Jan was put into a position where she needed to take the hospice job. She assured them that she would not be there long because she had a fear of death. The boss assured Jan they had chosen the right person for the job. What Jan didn’t know was this was the answer to her prayers she had been praying for years. What God was about to show her was going to change her life forever. She stayed there for eleven years. She is no longer scared of death or dying, and is not confused about heaven. Actually, sitting with one of her dying patients is where she finds the most comfort, and right there on hallowed ground is where she feels the closest to the Lord.view less
