    • About Me

      I live each day as though it were my last. Because I am a Christian, God is in control of the rest of my life, my circumstances, and the outcome of my decisions. I trust Him because He loves me. I am safe in that Love. God looks out for my best interests and my job is to continue to believe in His Word which gives me new life. Everything in this world is contrary to faith; so we work to believe because it is ONLY faith in God's Word that overcomes the world.

    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Partner/Spouse

      I lost my husband when my children were 4 and 7 years old. I was 32 and had never been single before. This was totally unexpected. We had no life insurance. Miracles were about to begin.

      Treatments

      Prayer Working / Worked
      I began to look to God immediately for all kinds of help. I had never been alone before and had no one to depend on. Everything I asked for He responded by answering my prayers.
      Faith Working / Worked
      I had no particular type of profession I could fall back on. He created a flow of income for me. He showed me new direction; whatever I believed for, He did it!
    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      First husband died. Second husband betrayed me and divorced me within five months after marriage. I put my trust in God only now and my life has gone uphill ever since I made that decision!

      Treatments

      Love Working / Worked
      I decided to let people live according to their choices. We are not gods that we can control and manipulate peoples lives and choices, so they will only do "our" will.
      Forgiveness Working / Worked
      when I forgave the person who betrayed me, I released that resentment from my own heart and was able to go on free, to start another season of my life without them.
    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Depression has tried to take my mind but I have overcome by speaking The Word of God. "The Joy of the Lord is My Strength!"

    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      My craving for food was unbelievable. Always hungry, always wanted more.

      Treatments

      Eat Less Working / Worked
      I read that Jesus is the Bread of Life. Realizing that my soul was starved for the Presence of God in my life; I accepted Him into my heart and became satisfied.
    • Open Alzheimer's Disease
      Stage: Early Onset

      My husband began to show signs of Alzheimer's at the age of 68. He could not remember simple things and this seemed strange to me. We had only been married 3 years at the time. (we are newly weds. As time went by he seemed to get worse. I had to do and remember everything for him.

      Treatments

      Prayer Working / Worked
      We decided to act on God's Word and command new brain cells to develop in Jesus Name. It only took another couple of years and we could see much improvement.
    • Open Fibromyalgia

      I thought my pain was due to the fact that I was getting older so I just accepted it. I bought over the counter pain relievers and used them in increasing numbers. Soon I had pain all the time. It felt like the flu in every muscle of my body.
