God Speaks I Listen

If you do have kindle…. you can get my new book called “A Handbook for Surviving Suffering” Available on Amazon Kindle and other eBook readers. The printed book will be available on Amazon and other stores on 8/28/28.

My new book is a living journey of how I’m getting through my very difficult hard-core trials, pain and suffering with the help of God. It is not only sharing about my suffering, but it reveals real tools you can use to see you through your problems.

If you are going through things or know someone who is…please get them this book when the printed version comes out in August.

God’s amazing grace is the only way I’m getting through the difficult situations in my life. This book is a living testimony of God’s goodness! It’s my life’s story. It gives you real time information to help you through your problems.

It was very traumatic for me to write this book because I have and am living this right now. I can’t believe what I’ve been through and how much god has been helping me through it all. My whole life of troubles(and there have been much) is all laid for you along with the biblical tools and support that I share with you.

I cried and prayed as I wrote this book and saw how God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and the word of God/bible is sustaining me through all of this!

I keep reading my own book and it has been giving me soooo much strength and encouragement!!!! I know it will help you! If you know anyone who is going through a hard time…when the printed book comes out 8/28/24 please buy them a copy at Book baby, Amazon, Barns and Nobel and other stores.

A few years ago, I learned that someone I respected as a Christian apologist, Ravi Zacharias was accused of doing some of the most heinous things against women and misused ministry funds. Today I learned of a sin done by Pastor Tony Evans, one of the ministries that has been a great blessing to me. Over the years I know of many famous people in ministry as well as many in my local area who have had moral failures.

Jesus said He didn’t come to judge the world but to save it. Who then does the judging? God! Today’s news really hurts because I had really learned from Pastor Tony Evans’ teachings, and I still believe they were great. Going forward I know it will be a struggle, but I know one thing for sure, I still own a bible and do my own daily bible study, so I’ll be just fine.

A long time ago I went to someone’s church that I had heard things about. I could not concentrate at all on the message. God spoke to me very clearly! “He said, “while you’re looking at that person, I’m looking at your heart, while you’re judging them, I’m judging you!” I will never forget that!!!!“

I feel that God has work for me to do and I can’t look back on those who have slipped and fell. But I must finish the work that God has for me to do for His kingdom! I’m going to stay in my lane and be about my Father’s business. I will pray for Pastor Tony Evans, his family, his church and all those who are disheartened by the recent news of his situation.

We all have our assignments from God. Let’s keep going! There are souls to be saved!!! Stay focused on Jesus Christ! Be wise and prayerful.

1 Peter 4:18-19 And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?” So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.

Isaiah 46:9–10 Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me. I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’

Sovereignty means supreme power and authority.

Many people are speaking on God’s behalf and questioning God as if they know Him. There is only one way to really know Him and that is limited even if you are a Christian. We Christians only know Him partly. But one day we will know Him as He really is.

1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

One thing that will amaze us when we finally see Him will be His Holiness and His Mighty Power!

Many people today question Gods actions and Gods motives as if they knew Him. Many people who question why He does or does not do things on earth have not even read the whole bible. You can’t know Him if you haven’t read the bible. You can’t even fully understand the limited information about God if you haven’t accepted His Son Jesus. The Holy Spirit who comes to live inside of a Christian confirms Gods word to a Christian. This is a great advantage and help.

But still people believe they know Him. Even people who say they are Christians question His motives or try to make Him answer their prayer request not respecting His process, His ways and His timing. We MUST respect His Sovereignty!

I wrote a book called “A Layman’s View on the Holiness of God”. It’s on Amazon and not one person has read that book. My other book got many reviews. People don’t want to hear much about His Holiness because it shows us what God is expecting us to be. It also reveals to us information about His wrath. In my book I have a chapter called “God don’t play”. Now that doesn’t sound very theological but it’s a fact.

I wish people would meditate about how powerful He is and take Him very, very seriously. Look around…things on this earth are taking a very fast and serious turn. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. God is real, hell is real and we are ALL going to die. Some sooner than later. This is Gods world and Gods ways. He can do whatever He wants at any time. It is better to be on His good side. Talk to God and ask Him to set you straight about Himself. Whether you are a Christian or not. It’s time to make sure things are right between you and God.

Yes God is Love and I love that about Him. But He has His way of doing things. HIS WAYS! It’s time to surrender to His ways. Respect HIS PROCESS! I’m telling you this because I care about your life! I could keep my mouth shut…mind my own business and live my life but I truly care about you. I’m 71 now and much of my time on earth is spent. So, I’m trying to spare people heartache and the after you die shock. It will be too late to say…oh no. The Sovereignty of God! Google it, look up the scriptures and be informed.

A new STD is out, the bird flu has spread to humans, the hottest temperatures have been recorded and it’s not even summer yet, inflation, wars, giant spiders on the loose……oh my!
Everybody sees what is going on and are commenting on the sign of the times. Something IS going on!!! Now is the time to get right with God!!!!

MY BIG ANNOUNCMENT! I just finished writing my latest book. It’s called, A Handbook for Suffering”. I feel my life’s purpose has been to write this book for everyone who is going through challenging times. My trials have been so hard it seemed as if I was being squeezed out like a sponge.

I have basically suffered with some kind of trial from toddlerhood to right now. Physical, emotional, and medical! I have collected a wealth of information. I will share every drop of how I have gotten through and am getting through the suffering.

There is no magic formula to eliminate pain and suffering. But there is a way to get through it! Please pray for me as every force has tried to stop me from getting this book of encouragement out to you. I’ve got a way to go until it’s released, but I want you to know it is coming! I pray you will get a copy and share it with someone who is going through a difficult time. God bless you!
