My dear brothers and sisters, of FaithLine: “…in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for MY POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.” Therefore I will boast…about my weaknesses, SO THAT CHRIST’S POWER MAY REST ON ME. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG.” (2 Corin. 12:7-10)
Please forgive me for writing about myself, it’s just what I know best about – God’s protection for me. As a result of agent orange exposure while in Vietnam; On January 20th 2011 a tumor was removed from my brain causing the loss of my balance and hearing nerves. On March 29th 2011 a massive stroke totally disabled me for about 4 months, I was kept in Siskin Hospital unable to recognize the simplest objects. During this time I had kidney failure, severe nephropathy in both legs and feet, and then in 2016 I had a heart attack requiring six stents. This was the devil’s attempt to stop my ministry. As of today, (all of course because of God’s intervention) my ministry has never been more productive. For about 10 years now I have been, with the Lord’s anointed inspiration, writing and publishing blogs that are posted on Facebook and sent as emails. Some days as many as 6,000 people view these blogs and my prayer is they are blessed by them. I have difficulty getting around these days, but when I sit at my computer the inspiration just wonderfully flows, so I can say “when I am weak then I am strong”.
NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR THE LORD…
FaithLine, the bible says: “My grace is sufficient for you, for MY POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.”
