tea and testimony!

I feel so extremely blessed/overwhelmed at the tea I went to for one of my nursing friends that has been diagnosed with Cancer. The testimony that 3 people shared tonight were amazing and reminded me of the things I went through with mom being ill..some shared 'signs" from God that they had gotten from him when they were ill. But the last testimony is truly amazing and I know God would love for me to share his testimony..This 14 year old kid was riding his 4 wheeler and he got into an accident..no helmet. got pinned and it rolled on top of him 4 times. He had to have part of his skull removed since to reduce pressure in his brain and dr's told him he would never see, never talk and never walk. He went up to the mic tonight (walked and talked) and told us his side of the story of his heavenly experience and said he "woke" up and saw beautiful lights..lights he has never seen before and there were a lot of kids around him and were all happy and to his rt was Jesus in this bright light and he saw his grandfather and great grandfather ..they all hugged him and said to tell his grandmother that he loves her dearly. He then said he was walking with his grandfather and Jesus along side a river and beautiful flowers and colors everywhere. He said Jesus took him and told him to go back to earth and share with everyone what he has seen and that he may not have "vision" on earth but he gave him "vision" of heaven to share with everyone. He is still blind but he can talk and walk (which is a MIRACLE). It was so inspiring and I thank God I was so blessed to have heard that.
On my way home I was just so happy and so overcome by the holy spirit ..as i was driving I was in a thicket of fog and all of a sudden I saw the figure of jesus within the fog and he was moving to the left in the fog..it only lasted for a few seconds but it was VERY CLEAR and he has his arms outstretched. I then felt the presence of his wonderful spirit within the car and was just so overcome. He's soooo Amazing and I feel once again blessed that he allowed me to "see" him.
I have several people that I know personally that are battling Cancer and I just feel this night has given me more hope/encouragement especially with the finding of stomach polyps in my dad and the unknown of what is to happen in the future..but I do know God is in control and we can get through all things through him ALONE who gives me Strength..
Please pray for the following people with Cancer..pray for strength , pray for healing, and pray for peace:
Bruce Stewart
Michelle's Dad "Rob"
Dawn
and everyone that is going through Cancer or hardships/illness
I will never forget the following that Have lost their lives to Cancer..
Pat Pletcher
Sarah sutz
Love you all!

3:33 (dream, miners/school)

More 3:33...I was asleep last night and could have sworn i heard a drawer being opened and then closed ..you know how you wake up from sleeping and think you heard something ?? well that's what happened with me..I then thought.."God is waking me up again"..I looked at my clock and it said 3:33! and then I went right back to sleep..I was praying about it this am about What God is trying to tell me through 3:33 and I really believe it signifies his presence with us..then I get home and my friend posted a thing about the 33 miners and how it took 33 days to drill and they got out on 10/13/10 and if you add all those numbers it equals 33 and all the miners say Jesus was with them..Then I get to ashley's school to check her out and someone had wrote 33 for the time next to her name accidentally and they tried to erase it since they meant to put it on the line above for a 330 check out time..but you could still see it said 33..So 3 times today he showed me 33!!!! God is awesome!..if you haven't read my previous blog about 3:33 please do so but I explained before how 3 stands for father , son, Holy spirit and Jesus rising on the 3rd day, and then 33 was the age Jesus was when he died.

Mission Trip!

I recieved this email this past week about an upcoming medical mission trip to Nicaragua and thought wow I've always wanted to do that but I need to know/make sure it's God's timing and not my own so I was praying about it and then God put into my head that My sponsored Child from compassion international is from Nicaragua..I did further research and found he lives in the city in which we are flying into and i can arrange and individual visit with him while i'm there! That was the clarification that i needed and so I signed up and am ready to go..It will be in March so please Pray that God will bring the right people on this trip and that he will work through us to bless others and we will be blessed also!

"the Ghost"

2 nights ago ashley came into my room at 0600 and said "mommy I see a Ghost"..me: "where is the Ghost"..Ashley:"Under the Bed". "What does the Ghost /Angel look like?"..Ash: "all different multicolored light/spectrum "..me:"what does the face look like?"..Ash: "A bright light"..Me: "Did the Angel say anything to you?"..Ash: "Yes, she said to have good manners and say please, thank you and yes mam"...
I really do feel God's presence in my house..the other night i felt my bed shake and I happened to look at my clock and it said 3:33..(see previous blog of 3:33)..God is so amazing..he's constantly letting me know he's here and I'm so thankful that My blinders are lifted that I am aware and tuned in to what he wants to show me..I pray that those that may be reading this that you too can/will experience God's wonderful love for you!!!!!!!

More healing!

Last night I woke up at 1230am with fever of 99.5 and felt nauseated/body achy. I then took some motrin, and a rolaid and then laid back in bed but then I started praying to God to heal me so I can do his ministry (so i can work this week as a nurse and as a mom...). I kept thinking of the verses in the bible "I called upon the Lord and He answered me". I then fell asleep and woke up this am without nausea or body aches or low grade fever..At first I was shocked in a way..I don't know why I should "doubt' God's ability to heal..It's not that I doubt that it's just amazing that he would think of me "a sinner" and lavish his healing power on ME! It's soo awesome..so here i was this am doing my daily bible reading (i'm reading the bible in a year) and I happened to be on 2Kings chapter 20 and was reading about Hezekiah's illness and it says in verse 5 "I have heard your prayer, and seen your tears, I will heal you"..but this wasn't good enough for Hezekiah..he wanted a sign that he was healed by God..So God caused his shadow go back the ten steps on the sun dial..then i was reminded of this neat sun dial they just recently installed at the northwest fl campus..and reminded that I need to go by "faith" that I'm healed and not thinking that I will get sick again today..to just bask in his healing power and even if I do get sick again I believe it's for a reason and I will just trust in God's timing for everything. Thank you Lord for your healing power..you are the Big Physician !!!!!

The power of prayer

This past wed night my dad said he had been having chest pain for 2 weeks..I got onto him by telling him he needs to go to ER but he didn't want to go and states he would wait till his dr appt the next day. We went to the Dr and she admitted him for tests. It was funny cause as Dad and I were going up the elevator to the 3rd floor ..he says.."wouldn't it be funny if we saw the nurse that took care of mom "jeffery..well we round the corner and there he is at the nurses station and dad's cardiologist was sitting at the desk. Talk about perfect timing. I also felt everyone's prayers since by this time word was getting out about dad's hospitalization. He states his pain felt like someone sitting on his chest. I of course was very concerned. The ironic thing was he was in the room right next door to mom's old room that she was in an exact year ago for 2 months. CRAZY! Needless to say it was like a reunion of sorts with the Staff of PCU and it was neat to see everyone but really it was weird to relive that ..
I then went home for the night and the song that happened to be on the radio was "Praise you in this Storm" by Casting Crowns..I had posted this song a few days before on my facebook for my thurs am bible study ladies since it's from psalm 121 that we are studying.."I look my eyes unto the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth."Awesome song and how true!!!!!!
Dad then went in for his heart cath this am and my wonderful friend Michelle came and prayed with my parents before the procedure and she said the holy spirit prompted her to say "in a little while we will be celebrating"..and then we went back for the news and he said his heart was clear!!!!! How Awesome..Dad did say his pressure in his chest was relieved greatly last night at 10pm without medication ..I really believe it's from all the prayers! God is the ultimate Healer!
Mom also said she woke up at 3:33 last night (see my prev entry about the significance of 3:33). So All praises and Honor and Glory to our wonderful Lord Almighty who is so much deserving of our Praise. He is all sufficient!
