Dona Maria sat upright, slightly more composed. \u201cChurch leaders heard of my plight. Some of their young men came and repaired our leaking roof, and they are planting corn in my fields today. The women of the church gave me a bag of corn meal to hold us until harvest season.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I explained how her symptoms didn&#8217;t match any particular illness, and then asked, &#8220;What do you suppose would help relieve your symptoms?&#8221; Dona Maria replied, &#8220;There&#8217;s a verse of scripture that&#8217;s especially meaningful to me: &#8216;Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving make your requests know to God.
