Popular Christian Author Ann Voskamp's Heart is Failing: Please Pray!Doctors at the hospital couldn't believe Voskamp was even standing with the [heart] levels she sported. (Canada)—[Faithwire.com] Famed Christian author Ann Voskamp, who wrote "One Thousand Gifts," recently revealed some health struggles she's experiencing. Namely, she ended up in the hospital nearing heart failure thanks to plummeting hemoglobin levels and years of low iron in her blood. (Photo: Ann Voskamp/via Faithwire.com) Like she's known to do, though, Ann took this very physical situation and translated it into one that is precisely spiritual, reminding her readers that when things feel like they are falling apart, that's the moment we should look to the Lord to catch us. Doctors at the hospital couldn't believe Voskamp was even standing with the levels she sported, and her response was graciously God-focused: "Maybe we're all only standing because we're standing under a reign of grace. Maybe we're all only standing because grace is the actual air we breathe." She used her failing heart as a metaphor for the rest of life, for whether it be literal failing, broken by love or crushed by circumstances, none of us stands a chance in the realm of eternity without Jesus fixing it all. Voskamp reminds readers that we aren't in control of this life and that, perhaps detours are God's way of getting us where we need to go despite our own reckless plans. Heart failure inside a human body can be reminiscent of the heart failure of humanity in the whole of the earth. Click here to continue reading and watch a special video released by Voskamp.
