 Sending out huge hugs on this awesome Wednesday morning.  Please remember all of those who are sick today and hurting.  You all have a great day.  I love ya!!!  
 

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self? If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels."  (Luke 9:25-26)

This came to me one day as I was talking to a friend.   I will never be ashamed of my Savior.  He has done so many things for me.  I cannot begin to tell you all of the wonders I have experienced.  Just a few are my grandson be healed from leukemia, my mother being healed of cancer and my child being delivered from drugs....and these are just a few.  He is AWESOME and I will shout His praise forever.  I just love Him so and thank Him for loving me.

OH MY!  WOW!  Let me in on this PRAISE!  I'm not ashamed of the GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST!  I'm not ashamed to say that through 18 surgeries HE IS FAITHFUL!  Through 2 house fires, HE IS FAITHFUL!  Through the death of my wife Joie, HE IS FAITHFUL!  How can I say that?  He has NEVER left me nor forgotten me!  He has healed me so many times.  HE BROUGHT ME OUT OF A COMA!  When the Dr.s told Joie I would not live through the night due to having ARDS (accute respiritory syndrome), I AM ALIVE!  When they told me I would never walk again, I WALK!  My God is a healing God!  He brings healing in so many ways and I TRUST IN HIM!!  I can't  explain it my friend but as I sit here and type this, I have the anointing of God and cold chills rippling over my body KNOWING that when the enemy says sickness, GOD SAYS HEALING!!  I love you and I appreciate you and your boldness for our SAVIOR.....OUR HEALER!  I'm praying for your family and Adam is going to be a testimony...PREACHING of God's healing power!  I SEE THAT!  Amen and have a blessed day!

For every Goliath, there is a Stone! His name is Jesus!"

Randall, I feel like I'm sitting in a church service listening to one of the best messages I've ever heard. Randall, we all truly have so much to be thankful for. How could we ever be ashamed of someone who has done so much for us? Like the song says, "I've got too much behind me, to let this world blind me - to some He's a name but to me He's my everything."

I was sitting in a testimony service one Wednesday night and listening to folks stand up and give God the Glory for delivering them from drugs, alcohol, lying, stealing, etc. I begin to feel cheated if you can believe it. Cheated because I couldn't stand up and join these people in listing all the things He's brought me out of. Then it was like a gentle nudge and a whisper in my ear. Deborah Rose you have more to be thankful for than all these people. By my power, you have been kept from sins like these. What greater testimony could a person have??? Ok, God - I'm going back to my corner now and will stop whining!!!

He's been there for me through the following:
1. My fathers death in 1996
2. My husbands death in 1999
3. My fiance's death in 2002
4. My 16 year old daughter's pregnancy in 2002
5. Cancer last year

These are just a few of the highlights. So much more has been given to me. In 1982 my first husband and I both taught school and during the summers we would take small part time jobs. This particular summer we went to work in a convenience store from midnight to 6:00 a.m. We were supposed to work up until the week before school started. For some reason, the owner of the store called us up about 2 weeks earlier than we expected and told us she needed to go ahead and get someone in there that would be able to stay through Christmas. She let us go. My husband was so upset and mad. He really let the lady know how he felt about this. Not with a foul mouth but still he was very upset. Our last night was a Friday night. Wesley trained the new man who was taking his place. He knew him previously. Anyway, Sunday morning around 2:00 a.m. the owner called us and asked us to come to the store. The guy who had taken Wesley's place had just been shot and killed. I still get chills when I think about this. That owner looked Wesley in the face and asked him this question. Now do you see why I let you go earlier than we had agreed on? Now, this owner was not a Christian yet he understood that God had just been working His plan to protect Wesley's life. We both learned a valuable lesson that day. Never question why God doesn't always answer us the way we want Him to or when we think He should. We have no idea what tomorrow may hold for us. We have no idea that he could have just saved us from a 3 car accident on the interstate - we were just mad because we lost our keys and couldn't find them.

So you are right. He is AWESOME and we should be so thankful for not only the things we know about but for all the unknown things as well.

Love,
DebbieDoo
