Woody Allen said that the most beautiful words in the English language are not, “I love you,” but “It’s benign.”
I was at Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas visiting a friend. We talked for 10 minutes, prayed together and I left. I passed the nurse’s station on my way to the elevator, pressed the button and waited.
Suddenly, a door down the hall opened and a man came bursting out. He looked both ways, saw me and started running toward me waving a piece of paper.
“Her fever has broken! Her fever has broken!”
He grabbed me around the chest, whirled me around and said breathlessly in my ear, “Her fever has broken!”
The elevator opened, he let me go, and I went down to the lobby.
I am thinking about that man again tonight who had such good news that he had to stop the first stranger he saw to tell him.
