| Just a great Praise report!!!! My little one Benjamin 2 is going through some speech therapy. I had seen some signs in Benjamin that was very odd to me. He showed some signs of autism. My older son Cameron 10 was diagnosed with autism and I was a little concerned about my youngest Benjamin. He doesn't say much of anything. I was getting worried about him. So now he is in First Steps with help with speech and he has low muscle tone. Just the other day with his therapist he gave great eye contact and did what was asked of him. He did wonderful. After evalutions with the coordinaters and the therapist she saw NO SIGNS of autism......Praise the Lord!!!! I do have 4 children on my side of the family that was diagnosed with autism and 1 on my husbands side. I am ever thankful to God for giving me a great report!!! All I had to do was cast my care upon him and he gave me a great return. Even though Benjamin has speech delay and low muscle tone he can go to a regular preschool and the First Steps program will pay for it and plus he gets his therapys, How wonderful is our God!!!!!

| Well, I just want to testify of what God has done. You know sometimes the storm of our life can blow us anywhere when we don't keep focus on what God wants in our lives. Not only what is good for us but also he cares of what we want out of life. Recently I had gone through a foreclosure on my home. This was the most terrible feeling in the world. The house my family and I planted together is now gone to me. Hurt, Pain, Madness, Sadness, every feeling in the world I felt at the time of the move. It was one of those things that wasn't our fault. My family and I had only 4 days to get out of the house. So my feelings had me down and out and I was complaining to God about every thing under the moon. My children were devistated as well as my husband and I. We searched and searched for a place to go and now only 4 days left. I knew with all my heart God will not fail us. My husband David and I prayed and worshiped God through this horrible storm. We had peace the whole time but very sad about the situation. Which is pretty normal I think. I had to explain to my children about our home and that was tough. My daughter Bethany had a rough time and cryed alot about it but we stayed connected as family and she came out fine, my son Cameron which is autistic and very hard to change at anything did better than we did. Praise God for that. I wasn't sure about him but I knew God had done alot of healing in him anyway. My son Benjamin had the roughest time. I had to carry him out screaming and crying and very tough on me. I had my meltdowns believe me but to my son he is only 2 and doesn't understand so I was mad at the situation. I went through so many feelings in just 4 days. I went to look at a trailer which didn't come through and time was playing against me. I cried and cried and just took a drive by myself and found myself in a parking lot saying to God, "Lord , what do I do?" I have now 3 days left and no place for me and my family to go to. My husband David started a new job so he couldn't get off work at all to help me find anything for us. I simply said "Lord I don't want to live in junk and I want my son Cameron to be able to go to the same school and Lord we need it to be in a good price range for us to be able to rent". I left that parking lot and went home. I got a phone call from my husband David that just got off work around 6:00 pm. He said "Misse I feel I need to stop off at a friends house for some reason so I am" I said "Ok see you when you get home. Then hung up. He calls me back in 15 minutes later and told me that his friend said that there was a house in Cross Plains that could be for rent. Funny thing about this was my husband David's sister worked with the people that owned the house. I called his sister to get the number about the house and that night we went to look at it. Needless to say it was beautiful. We loved it. We had to ask at that time how much a month and God truly did a miracle, it was lower that what we could do so that was good and no deposit on it. PRAISE GOD!!!! Although we sold some things to be able to get a deposit we didn't even need one and we moved in the next day. No electricity needed to be turned on or water it was already on. All we needed was to move in. He didn't even want the rent until the first of next month. Now if that isn't God I don't know what would be. My son can even go to his school. AWESOME! God supplied everything I prayed for that day in that parking lot. I know that we all go through so many things in life but when you stand and be at peace God will do what his word says he will do. We expected God to move and he did. We lived with expectancy. We didn't bend to the pressure of time. Of course God does it so well, we live in between a deacon and a pastor boy what message did God give us. We rent off the deacon. We have had 2 pastors of a Baptist church come see us and welcomed us into the neighborhood and the next door neighbor brought us a pie. Now is this not overflow. Well this is my testimony and I say "YES!!!" God may never come early but he will never be late, always on time. So everyone out there that is going through a struggle of life just stand and hang on to Jesus, he will come through for you. My favorite verse in the bible Phillipians 4:19 " My God will suppy ALL my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" Be encouraged and God Bless you all.

When There's No Answers
When times seem difficult and hard to work through,
When you've done all that you could possibly do,
When Life seems a struggle and your weak at the knees,
It's time to call on God , he'll meet all your needs.
He'll take away your frustration, heartache and pain,
All you have to do is just call on his name.
If your in doubt about decisions you make,
If you have taken all that you can take.
Reach up, take a hold of God's unseen hand,
God is always there and he will understand.
Remember Jesus died in heartache and pain,
God helped his son, for you he'll do the same.

This was something I wrote back in 2003, it came up in my home so I figure someone could be blessed by it and needed to read this.

| My husband David and I have been praying together at night and really have been taking charge over our family. We have been ministering for some time to our families. Well last night we had a phone call and on the other end was our new brother in law Dave. He called to tell us he receive Jesus as his Lord and saviour last night and wanted to call and tell us. PRAISE THE LORD! Oh I felt so happy for him and I just shout it through the roof tops. AWESOME! All I have to say is "Satan you just lost one" Ha Ha. They will be coming in one at a time. I can't wait. God is so good. For those out there that are praying for your family, please keep pressing in. There is POWER in PRAYER! even for those ones that are hard to reach, it will happen, "All things are Possible for those who believe." Now that's the greatest miracle of all" ~SALVATION~. Amen.

Well the things that I am going through now has been challenging. I guess when you can't fix anything then you must rely on God and believe he will. I am at that point in my life where God is doing some major things and its very uncomfortable. Faith has risen so much inside of me that the unbelievable is happening, now thats tooo cool. I have 3 major issues that I am going through, yep, GOING THROUGH. I will not stop to be a target for satan to hit. My faith has allowed me to keep moving. Going forward and not looking back. The things that are happening is something I cannot change, its all about believeing now. ITS A MUST! Sometimes God will let these things happen in our lives so he can show us the faith inside us. Which has been totally awesome to me. God has shown me that we need to get the clutter out of our spirit as well as our home. He is not a clutter God. Through lifes trials we must also show the Love of Christ. Now thats tough, but when you believe all things are in Gods hands then its easy. It is to me. I have decided to except people for who they are as Jesus did and love them. Being forgiving through my trials. Talk about your prayers being answered without hinderances. We must keep our hearts clean and love one another like in 4:11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 4:12 No man has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.
I have been learning about just loving others as they are. Sometimes you must show tough love. Thats hard to do, especially when you have a teenager. God has shown his love through my trials. I have learned so much through them and even gotten closer with him. I will miss the trials but I'm sure they will be more and I will have another adventure in Christ. Just cleaning out the clutter in my heart and letting God's love shine through has been awesome. God has put me and my family here at home to worship and praise him also to get to know eachother and him in a personal way. Its been totally awesome! Yes, our trials are pretty major right now but nothing will take the place of knowing my Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. There are things we don't understand but one thing I do know is trusting God and he will unfold each detail that we need to know at the right time. He doesn't show the whole picture but in bits, which is fine with me. That's why faith is an adventure to me. He hides himself in faith. Its an awesome experience. I believe if the Israelites knew that they were going through the red sea they would probably go another direction and miss God's glory shine. Experiences in life are tough but tough people will last tough times won't. I thank God for trials, it gets me closer to him and experience the love so we may show love to others and be like Jesus. If there is anything in our hearts our prayers are hindered and that is what God is showing me now. I do love everyone no matter who they are and will keep my heart clean of clutter and keep my arms open. If we are a friend of God then we must be a friend to everyone. We must know who we are in God and let nothing get to our heart. If we know who we are in Christ then no one can influentance us. (I probably spelled that wrong). But anyways, I might have wrote long but I do believe that someone will be blessed by this. And maybe God is speaking to someone now on getting things out of their heart. I hope someone can relate and clean out their heart, this is why I wanted to share this. I have seen alot in others and in myself. I personally will not have any sin in my heart because Jesus paid to high of a price for me to hold a grudge against anyone but to love all and guard my heart. I will stand in my beliefs and will not be moved. I hope you do too. ~God Bless each of you~
