Surprise! You're
Pregnant!
After 12 years of crying and trying to have a baby we decided
adoption was the course of action for us...even though God had
specifically promised me years earlier during one of those
intimate Hannah moments with him that He would give us a
child.So we adopted the most perfect baby boy one could ask for
and life was good. When he was 14 months old I began to
get ill with intense headaches. After a couple of months and
some test we discovered that I had an non-operative brain
tumor without a lot of hope...

A
Marriage of Violence transformed into A Marriage of Victory
Before I can tell you all the other wonderful things God is
doing in our lives, I have to tell you about the painful past
that preceded the victories. It is a disturbing story to tell
and to hear, yet my hopes are you can see that it is truly a
love story, about a woman, a man and the God who brought them
together for His glory...

No More Stinkin' Thinkin'
One day I was having an all to frequent melt down in the form of
"crying excessively" (frequently it is in the form of blowing up
and losing all patience). Unfortunately this occurred in the
presence of my small children (2,4,and 6). This behavior
contributes to my complete feeling of worthlessness, failure as
a mother, and lack of feeling in control of my self and my
life...

Relief
from Depression
I read your devotional about how Satan uses our own thoughts to
deceive and discourage us. You gave a very good hint - attach
"In Jesus Name" at the end of that thought to tell if it was of
God. I felt a prompting in my spirit to send it to my sister.
I didn't know how it affected her until she called me this
morning...

My Blood Wasn't Good Enough - But His Was
I got an exciting call one Wednesday afternoon
that I was a match for a patient needing a bone marrow
transplant! It had been many years since I became part of the
registry so I was really caught off guard. The screener asked if
I was still willing and able to be a bone marrow donor...

Hope After Miscarriage
When my husband and I first got married we struggled to
have a baby. I had 3 miscarriages in 2 years and I was
absolutely devastated. The third one was extremely hard for us.
I lost my baby boy at 3 1/2 months along, and it was a very
traumatic ordeal. I was depressed and...

God Sees the Big Picture
I was at a moment in my life where I really felt like
I needed some direction from God and I was struggling with where
my life was headed as a single woman. I got on a airplane headed
back home from Seattle and while we were flying over the Rocky
Mountains God spoke to me...

How God Sees Me
For most of my adult life I have been on a quest to
truly understand how God sees me. What does He really think of
me? It is easy to read verses that speak to this question.
But to really know it deep in my heart, to really believe it -
that is the challenge. One morning as I was out for my daily
walk I was really wrestling with this once again...

Rainbow to Heaven
I am a recent widow. When my precious husband of 37 years went
to be with the Lord last year there was a most extraordinary
moment. My son and daughter-in- law were coming home from the
hospital where my husband had just passed away. My son
said "Look mama"...

God Provided Worms and So Much More
...After the morning encounter with the bird, I walked
outside to see if I could see any worms, but all I saw was the
aluminum frame. No worms, nothing that even looked like a meal,
yet I wondered if the bird would be back that evening and if he
would be disappointed because there were no groceries in the
frame for his evening meal...

The Bossy Boss
I was working for a long time friend of mine, but we weren't

than as a friend. He was critical, rude an unforgiving at work,
and I was at my wit's end...

God is Bigger Than Autism
Not long ago, I was blessed by God to have the opportunity
to care for a 7 year old boy named Aaron, who has autism.
Aaron is such an angel--innocent, amazingly observant, and
he has a contagious laugh that I will never forget! Children
with autism have a hard time understanding the intangible
such as time and dates. So when we started attending
church, we were never sure how much Aaron grasped about
Jesus and Christianity, since God isn't necessarily
'tangible'...

Marriage on the Mend

Godly man 11 years ago. During our yearlong courtship, we
were faithful in our walks. . However, after our wedding
day, the enemy had his way with us and we quickly got caught
up in our worldly lives. Our marriage spiraled downward,
away from each other and from The Lord...

Little Moments
Ever since I have been nudged back to God
(as I call it) I have many what I call "small miracles" or
small extraordinary moments. I'd like to share two. A couple

turned to me and said, "I love you."

driven the last 10 hours straight and we all needed a good
