MY STORY

Like many reading this, we did not have much, as the world measures wealth, growing up. You know, the big house, brand name clothing, new cars or even money to go to the doctor. Yet, mom and dad made red beans, oranges and love, go a long way! We were rich! We were happy! When I step away from my life’s clutter, I then find the “inner quiet”. It’s a place where God speaks to me; a resting place. He makes me happy. This blog may be just a cabinet to file away my thoughts and visit every now and then. I don’t know. What I pray is you also can find that your happiness lies within. Not the “within” from where fleeting worldly lies take you. If you know Christ as your Savior, you have the “within”! May this blog be a reminder He truly does live within our heart…that is where happy is.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW? #1 & #7

November 8, 2012 was the first posting of lives changed through faith.  These are updates from a few of the changes that were shared.

#1 – On Purpose

As you will see from going back and reading his story, this man gave his life to Christ.  The “old” man is gone!  He is new in Christ!  He is now using the artistic talent God has given him as his ministry.  He is a wonderful pencil artist whose passion and new addiction is serving God!  Currently, he is working on getting his website up.  The domain name is PencilArt.org.  Be watching for it! 

#7 – A Faith Like That!

Brittany’s faith was renewed by seeing the faith in Briley’s parents.  Read her story and I pray your faith is also renewed!  Immediately, Brittany started taking steps of faith in an outreach to help the less privileged at Thanksgiving.  By doing so, food and money donations started showing up!  Volunteers came out of the woodwork to help pick up, cook and serve!  There was even news coverage of this Thanksgiving Day event!  Best of all 221 people were fed!  Brittany told of the inspiration and gave all glory to God!  Although news seems to conveniently leave out that most important part, I know God used Brittany and all those involved.

That’s not the end…

Brittany goes to Sunshine Nazarene Church in Pearcy, near Hot Springs, Arkansas.  Together, with her pastor and church, this outreach will also be taking place at Christmas!  Not only food provided but also toys to underprivileged families!  If you would like to donate or volunteer,  please call (501) 282-5508.

You see, God takes us from glory to glory!  The gift goes on!  One step of faith helps someone else take theirs!
