Faith for Today If today is the first day of the rest of my life, it could also be the last day of my life. So for today; I choose to live it the best I can, and keep the faith. ******************************************************************************************* Why my faith in my Lord Jesus and God my Heavenly Father is strong. I have been through many ailments in my life. I have done many stupid things in my life, especially in my teens and 20’s. No matter what I did that was stupid, or otherwise, God has always been with me. Protecting me, even from myself. Also from others that would have done me great harm. Some of my biggest testimonies are here for the world to see. I got married in my teens to an ex con/alcolholic/abusive person. When I stupidly moved to a strange town and had to live in very dangerous slums for a short time. God sent me an angel. That’s right, an angel, in the form of a dog. In the short time I lived in those terrible slums, I would daily make a mile or so walk into town, down a highway. As I crossed over the highway that first day. A dog came out in the road toward me. I was afraid at first but the fear was soon gone. The dog never tried to touch me. He walked along side me, wagging his tail. He got between me and a car that had stopped to ask for directions. He barked seriously at the people in that car, and they moved on. When we got to town, I thought the dog would go on his merry way and I wouldn’t see him again after coming out of a grocery store. Much to my amazement, the dog seemingly came out of no where and was back at my side. As I crossed over the street to another store, I thought for certain he would not be there this time when I came out, but there he was, waiting on me. We walked together through town and back to the slums together. He left off at a the same place we met up. Each day, the same thing happened. My mom and dad came to rescue me from the slums and poverty about the fourth day of this process. The dog barked at them also. I told him they were my parents and they were okay. He immediately stopped barking and sat still. I got in the car with them. We drove over at least four blocks, rounding a few corners to a street we could stop on and visit. The dog ran after our car. He laid down close to the car and waited quietly as we talked. I left with my parents that day. I never saw my angel dog again, I don’t think…. There was a time much later, a dog looking like that one, stood behind me in another town when I had settled down. I turned to find him looking at me and he startled me for a moment. I told him “Hi” and go home. He turned a ran off. My point is, that dog in that first town, I am absolutely certain, was sent by God to guard over me and protect me. Another time, as I lay near deaths door, not living my life for my Lord again! My dad stood by my bed. I asked; daddy, am I going to die? He said, we don’t know sister. I began to pray silently. At the same time, my dad began to pray. Neither of us knowing what the other was doing. The episode that was about to take my life that day, suddenly ended. We began to cry as we shared with each other what we had just been praying. God healed me. He brought me back from deaths door. He gave me another chance to turn my life around, and another chance to serve Him and spend eternity with Him. I sure haven’t lived a perfect life but my life is completely different. My walk with my Lord is closer every day, as He continues to strengthen my faith. BTW; I am legally blind. I was born totally blind. I used to have an awful heart condition. The worst part of that condition is in the past. I have just been diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer. It is a harder one to treat. God never intended for His creation to suffer this way. He gave us a choice. We chose wrong. We continues to give us choices today. We live in a fallen world, that we made for ourselves. Satan rules this current one. One day God will take His children home to be with Him, we will never suffer ailments, sorrow, pain nor seperation or any tears again. You have a choice set before you this day. What will your choice be? As for me, I choose my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and God my Heavenly Father!!! Written on 5 Nov 2012 at 9:57AM No comments have been posted yet.
