I cannot survive this life without the Saviours help. I am not always worthy of the blessings He gives me. Times are tough but He is tougher, and tho I can feel completely overwhelmed at what my lifes challenges are, I know I can be a better person with Gods help and with the spirit to giude me.

This is only one of many answered prayers. 25 years ago as a new single mom to 2, I was sitting in my car crying after filling out applications all day. As I looked up I realized the parking lot I had pulled into was a church. I walked in I will never forget the feeling that came over me, the peace, and calm. That day I accepted him back into my life. I was so full of joy I cried all the way home happy tears. When I got home I had 2 job calls. Message, have faith and pray. Have to add this one, My son who is 34 accepted Jesus Christ and was Baptized last year, Something I never thought would happen.

Thank you for all you do.
God bless each and everyone

Looking at the natural and at what should be, I don’t know how I make it each month. But looking at it spiritually, I make it by the grace of God. He makes things work out. I don’t see how, but He does it time after time. Late last year I started saying to myself “all our needs are met” and God has met our needs – all of them. I’m still behind on things and looking for money to do this and to do that and to free up money so we can be free, and one day by God’s doing that door is going to open, I’m going to know it’s my door and I’m going to walk in it to new blessings and I will get my house straight and I will remember where I came from, the marvelous works that God did and finally be able to bless others again. I praise God for what he’s brought me through and for where he’s taking me. Hallelujah!

In the young years I learned from my father a song saying to “ all ways carry good spirit in my hart and carry smile on my face, if Wednesday does not bring what you hope for, remember that Thursday Friday and Saturday might bring what you want”.
Yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery today is a gift, enjoy it.
What you do today is tomorrow our legacy.
Receive and pass it on and always remember to be grateful and thy spirit will smile upon us.
God is good, and listen, to you, to me and to all of us. Speak to God and God will answer.
Amen.

When times are hard our first thing to be done is pray and to see how much we really need God.We might see it as suffering but we are learning to depend on God totally.

Those who think that the world is a dark place
are blind to the light that might illuminate their lives.

Do not let emotions immobilize you.
View them as choices.

The fear of not having enough prevent many from seeing
that they already are enough

Attachment to being right creates suffering.
When you have a choice to be right or to be kind,
choose “KIND’ and watch your suffering disappear.

Thanks for helping those in need…
i am sure if i had money to donate or to use for a good cause
would be like priceless miracles sponsored by the spirit realm.

THANKS GOD ALWAYS

I was unemployed for nearly 2 years. During that time, while working outside at home, I had an excruciatingly painful neck injury. I had no insurance but desparetly needed accupunture. After 2 months I had depleted all my savings in an attempt to be healed. I also needed to get a job!! One night while crying in pain and praying, I asked God to heal my injury so I could get back on my feet. When I awoke the next morning, I had no pain. God healed me, that was last year and I have not had any more problems to this day. After probably 100 or more resumes I landed a job 4 months ago. God will provide!! He never gives us more than we can handle and never closes a door without opening another. When you think God did not answer your prayers the fact is HE just said NO.

Thank You For This Opportunity To Share With You How I Made It Through Some Of The Tough Times In My Life. I Have Always Been In Good Health Most Of My Life,
Only Little Things Like Colds Etc. At The Time, I Guess I Thought It Was Terrible Because I Was Sick. Now When I Think About It, Those Things Are Trivial Now.
In 2007, I Had A Heart Attack, And In 2008, I Had Breast Cancer. I Have Been A Christian Since I Was 19, So I Knew That God Would Take Care Of Me.
Last Week, I Read An Article In A Church News-Letter. The Topic Was ( The Doctor Who Never Lost A Case). It Said Jesus Could Have Been A Doctor, But He Never Carried A Medical Bag Or Opened An Office On Main Street, Nazareth. Still Jesus Was A Healer. He Was Known To Say ” I Will Come And Heal Him”( Matthew 8: 7).
He Healed Children, The Blind Were Made To See, He Cured Palsy, He Caused The Lame/ Maimed To Walk Again, And Cured Those With Plagues. So When I Was Diagnosed With Heart Disease And Cancer, I Prayed That God Would Heal Me, And I Also Told God That I Was Going To Claim My Healing. I Also Had Others Praying For Me.
I Have Been Back To My Doctors, Four Times To Each One, And They Told Me My Heart Was Doing Great And There Was No Sign Of Cancer. I Thank God Every Day For His Healing.
If There Is Some One Out There That Reads This, And Are Suffering From Anything
Like Cancer, Heart Disease, Hypertension, Diabetes Or Anything Else. I Would Like To Encourage You To Talk To Jesus About It And Claim Your Healing In” The Name Of Jesus,” And Believe In Your Heart That Jesus Will Heal You. Also Having Others To Join You In Prayer, Like Your Family Or Members Of The Church You Attend.
I Will Also Keep Everyone In My Prayers, No Matter What The Circumstances May Be.
Just Remember, Make Your Appointment With The Great Physician. His Office Is Taking New Patients.

God Bless Each One Of You.

I became disabled in December of 2007. Since then, I have not worked and therefor have not earned any income. Financially, these are the toughest times I have ever faced. With the help of family and friends, I have not only survived this hardship, but have seen the true beauty in those around me. Although I don’t have much to give, I volunteer some time each week at a local clinic and pretty much just listen to people. Sometimes, that’s all people are in need of; someone to listen. When I reflect back on the stories I hear, I am reminded that everyone faces hardships, they just present in different forms.

My daughter became ill at the same time as I found out that the mortgagees were pressing to repossess my home the worry was never ending – hiding from the knocks on the door, trying to find the money and strengh to carry on and hide it all from my daughter. Then I was just staring at my daughter and though what a wonderful gift from god she actually was, so I changed my direction and instead of feeling sorry for myself at finding us in this financial position I began to feel lucky . . .

It has not changed my financial position and no miracle has happened to stop the repossession but instead I am now not worrying everyday and making my daughter ask “Are you Happy?”. I am happy and living each second like its supposed to be lived
