- My story with God
- Four and half years ago all I wanted to do was to end my life. My middle child was an absolute nightmare, she had total control over the family especially myself. Most mornings it was a battle to get her up just to go to school, and by battle that’s just what I mean! She would physically and verbally abuse me if I dared touch her or if I dared to make a stand and be firm with her. Because my daughter attendance and attitude at school was so bad she was under about to be excluded, I sought help from the medical profession only to be told that because of her age and unwillingness to talk they couldn’t do any thing and the next time she attacked me to phone the police.
My younger daughter had become Christian. She introduce her sister to her a Christian friend youth leader, who actually fought with them declaring satan was great and the ruler of her life. This youth leader didn’t give up on my elder daughter writing to her on a regular bases and inviting her to events and activities held at their house church, I found out later that they where praying for our families salvation.
One morning after a particularly bad beating from my daughter, I had got it In my head that the only way out was to kill myself,(I had started drinking to numb the pain I felt) I heard a clear calm voice telling me I should speak to my younger daughters Christian friends, I thought to myself what could they do. The following Sunday I went to their worship meeting which was totally different from church, after the youth leader approached me asking me if I wanted to talk. Well I let everything out I had ever bottled up about my abusive past the shame i felt the way I had failed my children. It was amazing she knew things about me I had never dared tell anyone. When I had finished sharing she said the greatest way she could help me was to introduce me to Jesus. I thought is that it! how can He help, having blamed God for my life in the first place. The Christian shared her testimony with me and again said the difference in her life now was Jesus. I said ok what do I have to do. I’d give Jesus six months. That afternoon I asked Jesus to forgive me and become Lord of my life. My elder daughter walked in as I was being prayed for and hit the roof she was so angry. When we returned home she sat talking to her internet friends telling them how I had betrayed her and become one of them Christians, when one of her friends said to her they had been praying for her to find Jesus, anyway about a week later she did and now we have a beautiful relationship and God is working wonders in her live.
And as for me through God's teachings and discipline I have overcome depression, rejection, and a lot of other personality traits that satan had me believing was mine and that I couldn't do anything about it. How wrong is he.
I thank God that He loves me and that though blood of His Son, has set me free from so much, including the hatred and shame I felt about myself. With Jesus at my side I can over come all things.
And thank God for calling me and leading me to the house church with people that fully desire to live according to how Jesus walked and not allow compromise to open door ways for satan to work in our lives. I am learning the meaning of God’s true love, for if we have not got love we are nothing .
1 Corinthians 13
- Other stuff about me:
- I have been married for 26 years:we have 2 grown up children and a teenager.
I desire to grow closer to our Saviour Jesus Christ, by reading and obeying His word. Allowing His love to wash over me and heal me from within.
I praise God that he called me by name and placed me in a spirit filled none compromising Christian fellowship with Christians whose desire is to follow God to the full.

RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER.
( JOHN 1:16 *NIV )
Always remember to count our blessings each day, and to
thank God for them! For no matter what we have, when we
look around us, we find others who have less! So never feel
sorry for ourself, instead start counting our blessings, for that
should cheer u up indeed.
Now we know that when things disappoint us, we are sad and
often depressed. However it is written that we should: BE
JOYFUL ALWAYS; PRAY CONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN
ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU
IN JESUS CHRIST. ( 1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-18 )
Therefore, never feel that God doesn't hear our prayers
because a prayer isn't answered the way we want, or something
goes wrong in our life. For our Heavenly Father always knows
what is best for us, and: HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU NOR
FORSAKE YOU. ( DEUTERONOMY 31:6 )
So my friend, remember to always: GIVE THANKS TO THE
LORD, CALL ON HIS NAME; MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE
NATIONS WHAT HE HAS DONE for you!
( 1 CHRONICLES 16:8 )
In closing, MAY THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST, AND THE LOVE OF GOD, AND THE
FELLOWSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU ALL,
now and always! Amen! ( 2 CORINTHIANS 13:14 )

I asked God to take away my pain
God said, No
-it is not for me to take away,
But for you to give up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole
God said, No
-Her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience
God said, No

It isn’t granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness
God said, No
-I give you blessings, happiness is up to you.
I asked God to make my spirit grow
God said, No
