I want to encourage somebody today to endure through your storm knowing that God is with you!
In 1999, The Lord was there when I viewed my own body in a casket. I mean, my own family that was attending my funeral didn't see me. Thinking back, I thought about how powerless I felt over all of life's situations. My mind was aiding me in giving in to defeat.
My life started off with tragedy. When I was only three, my Mother was murdered by my Father on Valentine's Day. Now that I know Jesus, I finally know what love really is. But, as a teen I suffered with depression and attempted suicide, I struggled through a abusive relationship, and as an adult I persevered with my children who have life threatening illnesses.
I believed in God, but I didn't become a “praying woman” until my daughter was deathly ill in 1998. I saw a miracle happen, and just maybe my fervent prayer was a part of it. God heard me and helped my daughter! My faith was at it's highest peek. The things I prayed, only God would know them.
In the past, I have had two dreams of myself in a coffin. Upon me viewing myself in a casket for the third time in my life...Jesus was standing there. The words He told me on November 21, 1999, would forever be the standing force in my life.
Read my story in it's entirety... Religious Autobiography: “IF YOU WANT YOUR LIFE, YOU HAVE TO FIGHT!!!”
James 1:2-4
2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
