Friends

July 3, 2010

Praise to my most awesome, most holy master and creator and provider of all; His Glory is great in all the earth and his greatness is unsearchable and I offer him all my thanks and praise in the name of his son Jesus Christ, who sits at his right hand in Heaven for his grace, compassion and all his tender mercies towards my family and me.
Since I joined the sabbath keeping Church of God a couple of years ago my circle of friends began to shrink until eventually all that was left were ...

To everything, there is a season, and there is a reason for every season!!!

June 22, 2010

To everything, there is a season, and there is a reason for every season. Things will occur in our lives that are above understanding or comprehension. However, when we have done all of that we can its time stand on the “The Word” and “God’s Promises” knowing that 1) God never fails us. 2) Hope never disappoints 3) Faith is my shield and 4) the devil is a liar. I am going to Praise him during good times & during bad, when my heart is heavy or fulfilled. God is my rock and ...

Adulterous Relationship

June 13, 2010

I just want to share what God has done in my life with everyone. Recently I met a guy and we quickly became friends. He mentioned to me that he is married and because I was uncomfortable spending time with him he told me that he spoke to his wife about me and she is fine with us being friends and that she even wanted to meet me. And, since we were only “just” friends anyway I didn’t see anything wrong with us just hanging out once every couple weeks. But the Lord spoke to me several times in my ...

I Know What Faith Can Do!

April 11, 2010

With God in your life you can “Make it happened like a Captain”.  There is no time like the present. There will always be wars and hard times, but what does that mean. God expects you to keep moving and keep doing… The father determines the final curtain call.
Religion is not what God wants us to focus on. What God wants us to focus on is “his word”, keeping “his commandments” and “loving one another”. When Jesus preached to his disciples at Mount of Olives he never mentioned religion at all. In fact there ...

Never Give Up

November 13, 2009

I have been through the valley, and I have suffered great pain. I know financial turmoil. I have witnessed wickedness at work. My heart has been broken and brused. I am man and I have suffered as you suffer.
There is hope. There is a God. He is listening I promise. His works are behind doors, under carpets, in whispers and so subtle you may not notice. But yet his works are BOLD, Mighty, Majestic and REAL. He is at work in your life. He will save you. He will lift you up. And he will set you free. Never ever ...

Faith That Pays the Bills

October 1, 2009

I was called out of the “world’s system” in August 2008 and I can truly say with no exaggeration that life has never been the same.  I’ve written about this in many of my previous entries so I will not go into too much detail about it now; however, I do urge you to read about it through the links I’ve provided for you below, but for now, I will simply say that Deuteronomy 8:2-4 pretty much summarizes this experience:
And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to ...

My Testimony of God’s Amazing Grace
By: Shelia Holcomb
Before I begin my testimony I feel it is important to give you some information on my childhood, so you will be better able to understand some of the decisions I made in my life, however good or bad they may have been. But every decision I have made during my lifetime good or bad is what has brought me to where I am now and I am very thankful for the mountains and the valleys.
When I was born my mother was only fifteen years old and now years later and after I went ...

September 21, 2009

Today I woke up and professed my love for the lord. I also asked the lord to show me why I loved him so much. I then I had a vision of Christ nailed to the cross. I said, “ I love you God, for Jesus Christ my Lord and savior”. I Began rejoicing, and carried on with my day. Less than an hour later as im driving the busy highways on my route to work, an episode of my life replayed in my mind.
On New Years Eve, a friend and I attended a devilish celebration in hollywood california. ...

FROM THE UNIMAGINABLE, TO THE EXTRAORDINARY

August 23, 2009

FROM THE UNIMAGINABLE
If there was one thing throughout my life that I actually believed in, it was ” bad luck”, as I’ve definitely had my share of it , however what I’m about to tell you, if you’re willing to listen, may change the direction of your life forever, and the testimony of my own extraordinary night and day differences should be enough to convince you that, if you’re truly sincere, there is a way out, and it’s all about Jesus ! At fifty-two years of age , five years ago the bible was just another ...

Don’t Drive While Sobbing

July 20, 2009

To have this testimony make sense to a general population who does not know me and keep it under 350 pages, allow me to simply state two quick facts without all the background details. Then I will get on with it
#1. About 18 years ago I was in a very frightening situation and needed to cling so tightly to God that I asked him to show up in all sorts of places [and He did] one place in particular was when I said “Lord, every time I see “GLY”_ _ _ on a license plate I’ll know it is ...
