“Hurry Janet, I think I’m in labor.” Janet dropped everything and sped to Jessie’s home. Entering the house, she found Jessie on the kitchen floor in a pool of water. Janet grabbed towels and helped the laboring mother into the car. Once in, Janet raced to the hospital as Jessie kept crying, “faster, faster.” Soon Janet was clocking at eighty miles per hour; “I did not want to deliver that baby on the highway shoulder.” Janet called Jessie’s husband: “Rob, we’re headed to the hospital—now.” Janet then dialed the nearest hospital to report the incoming patient. As they screeched into the emergency center parking lot, two nurses ran out with a wheelchair. Jessie’s husband rushed over and, thankfully, was present for the birth of a big healthy boy—just five minutes after arrival. Janet later reported, “It was so dramatic, it felt like we were in a movie!” Janet made haste to aid this mother and newborn baby.

Israel, Mary, John the Baptist, and the Church were created for God’s glory. Each person’s call to the edge of glory is to know, and make known, God’s glorious presence in the world.
