Some time ago I came across the following poem: My dad gave me a 1 dollar bill, ’Cause I’m his smartest son! And I swapped it for 2 shiny quarters, ’Cause 2 is more than 1! And then I took the quarters, And traded them to Lou, For 3 dimes (I guess he didn’t know), [...]
When I was in the US, a friend came over and shared an amazing testimony with me that really re-affirmed to me the power of hearing God’s Word. Jon shared that some time back, he developed excruciating pain in his back that would run down his leg. When the doctors ran tests, they discovered that [...]
The beginning of the New Year has brought with it both joy and heartache. On January 10th I celebrated my birthday, but in the early hours of the morning on the 11th, we received word that my cousin had passed away of a heart-attack. This was my cousin at who’s house my sister had spent many [...]
“Thank you Jesus, my powercord is not working!” I just said this phrase a couple of minutes ago…immediately before witnessing an amazing miracle! I woke up at 5AM this morning only to find that my laptop was dead. I had left it on and charging last night, as I do every night. But this morning, [...]
A few Sundays ago, I heard an encouraging, but different, testimony in church. Mark has been suffering from a kidney disease for approximately 30 years. And as the disease has progressed, he has had to have a kidney transplant. But even so, his condition continued to deteriorate. It had now gotten to the point that the [...]
“I’ll pray in a little while.” “Oh, maybe in another fifteen minutes.” “I’ll pray after this show is over.” “I need to make a few phone calls before I pray.” “Oh, I just remembered, I need to do this one thing before I pray.” “I’ll pray before I go to sleep.” “I’m falling asleep…I’ll pray [...]
I was thinking, once again, about God’s timing and I was reminded of a story I shared earlier: A few weeks ago on Thursday as we were coming home from prayer, it began to rain. It was not just raining, it was pouring. As the rain pelted down on our vehicle, I anticipated having to [...]
Suppose a person was really thirsty and the entire Pacific Ocean (the biggest body of water on the planet) was there for his drinking. If he drank just a little shot glass of water and stopped, you would think he was crazy. When there is so much more available, why should he stop with so [...]
I’m home in the US with my brother these days…and for some reason I am reminded of one of the most amazing and precious miracles I have witnessed the Lord do. He healed my brother. When my brother was in his early teens, he was diagnosed with a rare and fatal kidney disease. The doctors [...]
I have not been feeling well for some time now and have been making several trips to the doctor’s office. And for the most part, the doctors have not really been able to diagnose me…yet.
