My heart had been coveting a friend’s marriage and how wonderful it would be to have such a life. And in that very moment, my Abba Father chased me down with His merciful love. I was prompted to open up His word. It landed on 1 Corinthians 7. It was as if God had lifted…
I’m re-posting this article because honestly, the husband’s response softened my heart at the thought that God would create a man who would say, ‘Go ahead… I dare you’ in such conviction to love and give all that he’s got to his wife. He didn’t back down when she was feeling ‘needy’ and wasn’t trying…
I thank God every day for his healing and grace! More magnificent than the mountains, deeper than the valleys is His amazing love for us. Abba Father, you are so good to us. Since my cousin Jesse’s accident, he hasn’t been able to move his left side with much success. If you look back on…
I saw my cousin today! Via Google Hangouts, we shared a video chat. At the sight of him, tears of joy overwhelmed my soul; I was at a loss for words. It was surreal to see with my eyes this great miracle we have been praying for. I had believed, I had heard, but now…
Today, my cousin Jesse’s wife and children were able to take him outside… Wow! The Lord isn’t letting up until completion! Rest assured, your prayers are healing a little more each day.

It’s a…
Today, my cousin Jesse started whispering, and he wrote ‘JES’ when asked his name. He will be moved to a rehab facility tomorrow. (Note: his nurse told me a week ago, ‘no way would he ever be a candidate for rehab with a brain stem injury like his’.) My sister also asked him if he…
What mercy, what graciousness! By the strength and healing from God, my cousin gave the first hug to his daughter. Jehovah Rophi, what astonishment and wonder you have left us! Praise you, Jesus! We fall short of understanding or really grasping what kind of power Christ through us means… TODAY. We’re talking mountains move, oceans…
Praise you, Jesus, for your healing power… thank you, Lord, for your light shining through the darkness to a world searching for your hand at work! We give you all the glory! Through my tears, I am not letting the enemy steal my joy in Jesus. Thank you, God, for still being faithful. And to…
This morning my family received grave news about the condition of a dear cousin of mine. Almost a week ago, he was in a traumatic motorcycle accident-no helmet. At the scene, paramedics reported posturing, which is an indicator of severe brainstem trauma. At the hospital, he was put into a sedated coma as the brain…
