Three Harrys: Part 5

Shortly after Harry Hanger’s diagnosis of ALS he attended a company meeting in Canada (his employer is a Canadian firm). What would the firm’s reaction be to the news that their new hire was terminally ill? Would they regret their decision? Would they seek to cut ties with Harry? Would they expect him to resign?

When Harry returned to Richmond and shared his trip with our Tuesday-morning group we listened attentively. We had prayed with Harry and Elaine, asking God to make it clear to them whether Harry should accept an employment offer from the Canadian firm. Now that he was with them, and now that they had the news that their new hire was ill – what would the result be? How would God reveal Himself in Harry’s relationship with his new employer?

During Harry’s time in Canada the president of the company took Harry aside and said, “Harry, please tell Elaine that as long as you are here on this earth that you’ll have a paycheck.” (Or words to that effect, I don’t recall the exact quote).

There is nothing I can add to this, it speaks for itself, or I should say that God speaks through it.
